The Emperor of Qin took three actions that hurt China: 1. **Book Burning and Suppression of Scholars**: He burned many books and executed Confucian scholars to eliminate alternative ideas and enforce his control, but this also destroyed important cultural and intellectual knowledge. 2. **Forced Labor and Heavy Taxes for Big Projects**: To build the Great Wall and his mausoleum, he forced people to work and taxed them heavily, causing hardship and suffering. 3. **Strict Legalist Laws**: He used harsh laws with severe punishments to control society, which created fear and suppressed dissent, leading to social and economic problems.

Solución

1. **Book Burning and Suppression of Intellectual Dissent** The Emperor ordered the burning of many books and the execution of Confucian scholars. This action was intended to eliminate alternative ideologies and consolidate ideological control under Legalism, but it also led to the loss of valuable cultural and intellectual heritage. 2. **Forced Labor and Heavy Taxation for Massive Construction Projects** To build monumental projects such as the early versions of the Great Wall and his own mausoleum, the Emperor mobilized enormous labor forces through forced conscription. These projects placed a huge burden on the populace, draining resources and causing widespread suffering due to grueling labor conditions. 3. **Authoritarian Legalist Policies** Embracing a Legalist philosophy, the Emperor implemented extremely harsh laws with severe punishments designed to maintain strict control over society. These policies instilled a climate of fear and repression, stifling innovation and dissent, which in turn contributed to social and economic distress.

One of the most notable actions was the infamous book burning and burying of scholars, where Emperor Qin Shi Huang sought to unify thought under Legalism by destroying texts and silencing dissent. This not only erased vast amounts of cultural and historical knowledge but also intensified fear among scholars and common people alike. Another detrimental move was the extreme taxation and forced labor required to build monumental structures like the Great Wall and his massive tomb. This led to widespread suffering, rebellions, and ultimately contributed to the swift downfall of the Qin dynasty just a few years after his death!
