ReplyDeleteI, Jaakko, am tired of being attacked by the barbarian tribe. They have already killed my be loving brother! Who are next my kids? Not only are they attacking us they are also targeting Rome too. Then there has been a rumor about our emperor, Qin Shi Huang, building some wall that will protect us from the barbarians. One day as I was walking along the northern border I seen men and women in unimaginable labor building this tall and long wall. It was one of Qin Shi Huang massive buildings so far! Thanks to my emperor, Qin Shi Huang I do not have to worry about my family being killed anymore.
ReplyDeleteGood job and I appreciate the effort! I like the drama and personality in your diary entry. I would have liked more historical information (although I did like the mention of Rome and the barbarian invasions) along with what you provided. Also, I would have liked more mention of the terra cotta warriors and their purpose. Overall, this is a really good job!
