Qufu in Shandong Province is the hometown of Confucius, founder of the Confucian school of philosophy. There are many cultural sites, among which the most famous are the Mansion, the Temple and the Cemetery of Confucius. Confucius belonged to the State of Lu in the Spring and Autumn period. By the time of the Warring States period, there were seven chief kingdoms left. Sometimes, they were joined to each other because the power of an individual kingdom was too small, and sometimes they broke away from each other. During this period, the kingdoms went through a number of battles, including military offensive as well as military defence. Finally the State of Qin conquered the other six kingdoms and united China. After that, the Qin Dynasty established a new legal system and a unified currency. Evidence shows that the Qin Dynasty made great achievements in many aspects. Why the Qin Dynasty was strong is no longer a puzzle. 1.
