Legalism is very strict but it serves it's purpose well. This religion made China a highly effective kingdom and allowed for a strong rule but it seems harsh and unneeded most of the time. Many people are very glad they do not live in a legalistic country. Maybe it's because they'd feel like they wouldn't be able to hold there tongue. As you can see the interview, many people would most likely end up in the ground. Legalism is similar to how kings ruled but even more efficient and powerful. According to thinkquest.org emperor Qin's coinage helped propel china ahead of many of there neighbor's. This idea is used in modern countries and even a Continent (Europe). Even though many hate legalism they must thank Han Fiezi and Qin very much, they truly helped shape the world today.
Many of the technologies we take for granted such as money making machines or money printers, cranes for building, Factories for mass producing, phones to communicate etc... we are not used when Qin built this kingdom he had to send messengers miles to communicate, he had to order massive amounts of man power to build half the great wall and most amazingly he had to create a form of currency using molds, casts and coins (wikipedia.com). Believe it that's not easy. Here is my Qin kingdom rating chart:
A is great- F is horrible
Organization- A-
financial production- B+
Agricultural production- C+
Educational system- B
Military dominance- B+
Territory Ruled- B-
Technological advancements- C
Naval abilities- C-
Religious power- B+
Structural Accomplishments- A+
Medical capabilities- D+
Government Structure- B
Overall- B+
Synopsis (from a first person view)
I truly admire how the Qin dynasty, like the Egyptians, were able to build so many great wonders virtually by hand. I think the world of the government, military and financial structure but i dread the strict religion and harsh punishments.
