The reason for Qin's demise was rooted in two people, one was Li Si and the other was Zhao Gao.
Why do you say Lis? In "On the Passage of Qin", it is said that it is because of the immutable law, after reading many books, I think it is not, if it is because the Qin law is too strict, then why did the people of the Qin State not rebel and not respond to the chaos at the time of the chaos? Outside is boiling, outside of Guanzhong is not owned by Qin, but Guanzhong is quiet, Xiang Yukeng killed 200,000, all of them are Qin people.
Therefore, the reason is not in the law, but because the Kwantung people and the Qin people at that time were not a family, that is to say, the Qin people are Qin people, and they are now Shaanxi people, and if you pull a province, such as Hebei people, you can't say that people are Qin people, but if you say that he is Han, he will definitely not object. Therefore, the most important reason why the anti-Qin cause at that time was so vigorous was that everyone did not think that they were Qin people, that is to say, there was no orthodox idea of governing the Qin Dynasty in their minds, and there would be the idea that Chu would be Chu even if the three households died in Qin. We know that the orthodoxy of the Chinese is very heavy, Wang Mang usurped the Han, and everyone helped him recover.
And the reason for this, the most important thing is that the Qin Dynasty did not implement the feudal system, and everyone may know the disadvantages of the feudal system, but the reason why he existed is also his value, as mentioned in Ma's "Treatise on the Monarch", when the kingdom conquers a region, there are two ways to occupy him permanently, one is to station a large number of troops, which is the top use, but it is not economical. The second is that the monarch lives directly in the newly occupied place. But there is only one monarch.
And the feudal system is actually to play the role of a monarch stand-in. Many things are not harmful or not beneficial or not harmful, but the important thing is to weigh it. And when the Qin Dynasty examined this issue, winning the government was not as good as some people thought, so I listened to Li Si, so when Chen Sheng rebelled, I didn't say anything else, just said that Xiang Yu and Liu Bang, who finally played a decisive role in the process of destroying Qin, Xiang Yu discussed with the Taishou in that place to fight together, and then killed the Taishou himself unexpectedly; Liu Bang discussed with the county magistrate to live together, but later the county magistrate saw that Liu Bang was afraid that it would not be easy to control and regret it, so he had to kill him, which shows the role played by the magistrate of Qin, who can say that Qin's demise has nothing to do with the lack of separation.

During his reign, Qin Shi Huang built many lavish palaces.
As early as the war to unify the Six Kingdoms, Qin Shi Huang was building in Xianyang. Every time a nation is destroyed, the same place is built in the same style as the palace of that country. The vicinity of Xianyang is dotted with all kinds of palaces. The Qin palaces inside and outside the Guan, add up to a total of total.
Seven or eight hundred.
Taxation is heavy The Qin Dynasty was heavily taxed, 20 times that of the previous dynasty. "Hanshu Food and Goods": "The benefits of salt and iron are twenty times higher than those of ancient times.
The people are to give 2 3 of the year's harvest to **. "Collect half of the Thai endowment", such a heavy tax, so that "men do not have enough food and wages, and women do not have enough clothes", and the people can only "wear the clothes of cattle and horses, and eat the food of dogs and pigs".
Heavy Conscription The heaviest burden on the people of the Qin Dynasty was conscription and military service. Qin ** stipulated: Adult men should serve one month of conscription every year, serve one year of military service in their own county for the rest of their lives, and go to the capital or frontier to guard for one year.
It's basic. However, Qin Shi Huang's large-scale construction and expedition (repairing the Afang Palace, Lishan Tomb, fighting the Xiongnu, building the Great Wall, repairing the Chi Road, fighting the Yue people, Shuwuling, etc.) used manpower and material resources greatly exceeded the limit of what the social economy could afford at that time. The manpower used by Qin Shi Huang is only known in history:
300,000 people attacked the Xiongnu, 500,000 people attacked South Vietnam, defended Wuling, and 700,000 people built Afang Palace and Lishan Mausoleum. The total number of the above items was 1.5 million, and the population of the country at that time was about 20 million.
Three or four million people. As a result of the endless conscription, "Ding men were transferred to Ding men by A and Ding women (Hanshu Criminal Law Chronicles)" and even women were requisitioned to transport food and wages.
The criminal law is harsh The criminal law of the Qin Dynasty is harsh: if a person commits a capital crime, his relatives must be executed, which is called "clan punishment", and if a family violates the law, the neighbors will be implicated, which is called "joint sitting". Add to this the "corrupt officials, torture and killing", arbitrarily increase the punishment of people, and the people will violate the criminal law at every turn.
The punishments of the Qin Dynasty were as follows: 1. The death penalty, a total of 12 kinds: waist beheading, car splitting, Ruan, Bang, chiseling, Rib Pumping, Wok cooking, corpse killing, head of the owl, five punishments, clan, Yi three tribes.
2. Corporal punishment, including mutilation of limbs such as beheading, palace, slashing, and slashing. 3. Imprisonment: The prisoner shall be detained and subjected to hard labor.
The sinners who received this punishment were called prisoners, and the name of imprisonment was inherited from hereafter. 4. Transfer: i.e., exile.
5. Flogging: that is, the punishment of flogging. 6. Punishment:
i.e. fines. During the Qin period, criminals wore ochre clothes (reddish-brown prison uniforms), and there were so many criminals who were escorted to the government that "the roads were jammed with ochre clothes (the roads were full of criminals), and the prisons became cities (the prisons were crowded with people like a market)".

The Qin Dynasty has a history of hundreds of years, but it died within a few decades after defeating the Six Kingdoms, I think the main reason is that each country has a strong sense of nationality, and the other is that the Chu State was destroyed too unjustly, and everyone was not convinced, of course, Qin Shi Huang's rule was too brutal is also one of the reasons.
-
These are the views of Confucianism, and we should find some materials from other schools, such as the Fa, Taoism, Bing, and Shijia. It is generally believed that Qin II changed the ancestral dragon system and rebelled in the world, while the Han inherited the Qin system and set up counties and counties, and won peace in the world with the law of the ancestral dragon.
The Qin of the Second is very different from the Qin of the First.
-
This is because Qin Shi Huang was too ***, so the people at the bottom were forced to revolt, so it is said that the Qin Dynasty perished.
-
In the process of rapidly unifying the world, the Qin Dynasty did not have a good control over people's minds after conquering by force, and the wartime management policy of the Qin Dynasty after the stability of the world was not suitable for the world to recuperate, and the government and the opposition were chaotic.
-
The Qin Dynasty implemented harsh governance, large-scale construction projects, and lost money and labor, which caused dissatisfaction and resistance among the people.
-
1. After the reunification of China, the people were not allowed to recuperate.
After Qin Shi Huang established the first unified China, he still invaded the Xiongnu in the north and the Baiyue in the south, which made the people who suffered from the war even more suffering and did not bear the burden.
Second, the construction of soil and side wood, labor and money.
The pain of building the Great Wall, in addition to the unification after the unification, Qin Shi Huang ordered to build a straight road, galloping road, which is also an extremely arduous project. The scale of the project and the weight of the labor force are unprecedented. These are useful, useless such as the construction of mausoleums, palaces, and the list is endless, the most famous is the extremely luxurious Afang Palace.
This squeezes manpower and material resources, resulting in the people's lack of livelihood and the boiling of people's grievances.
3. Unable to follow the trend and still ruling brutally.
After the unification, Qin still implemented the Legalist policy that had been used since the Shang Dynasty, and did not integrate the strengths of a hundred schools, and the most famous "book burning and pit Confucianism" is a typical example of restraining the mind and ruling brutally. This kind of policy has its advantages, it is the basis for Qin's unification of China, and it has an advanced nature, but it must be reversed, and because of its brutal side, Qin quickly perished, and people can't help but sigh that "success is also Xiao He, defeat is also Xiao He".

1. The rule of law in the Qin State is very severe, and the people are not able to make a living;
2. After the Qin State destroyed the Six Kingdoms, the situation faced by the country underwent major changes. What was once a system that worked well in a group could not fully blossom across the country;
3. The state of Qin was a country of farming and warfare, rewarding military merits, and the military control system that was supposed to end as soon as possible after unification was extended indefinitely;
4. The failure of the operation of the Qin Dynasty and the lack of local armed forces, the Qin Dynasty's forced labor was too serious, and it was accompanied by inter-ethnic discrimination;
5. The unification process of the Qin State had a policy of colonial conquest, which caused the Kwantung people to suffer greatly;
6. The state of Qin stresses the rule of law, which is based on the power of the monarch. The personal qualities of the emperor played a very important role in the development of the country, and after the death of Qin Shi Huang, the second talent of the enthroned was far inferior to that of Qin Shi Huang.
The demise of a dynasty was marked by the death of the last emperor, either the announcement of abdication, or the surrender of a symbol of a country's power, such as the jade seal, while the Qin dynasty, if from the emblematic demise, it was in the third dynasty, (surrender, and the jade seal). Of course, it is generally called the death of the second in history, because after all, the second and third were in the same year, and the reign of the third was too short, so the landmark demise was in the third, and his surrender marked the real demise of the Qin Dynasty!
