Shi Huangdi was the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, and his name means "first emperor". He was a fierce ruler, and he believed in the principles of legalism, which meant that people were naturally bad and needed to be controlled. Therefore, he ordered book burnings about books that rejected the ideals of legalism, anybody caught hiding books was killed, and he even buried scholars that disagreed with him alive. Shi Huangdi believed in good protection for his empire, and even ordered the construction of the Great Wall Of China to protect his empire from the Huns.

What term refers to people who believe in more than one god? A. theologists B. monotheists C. atheists D. polytheists
Sliva [168]
Atheists are people who believe that there is no god.  So it's not C.
Monotheists are people who believe in 1 god.  Mono means 1. So not B.
A theologist is a person who studies theology.  So not A.
Poly means many, or a lot.  And a polytheist has 2 or more gods.  So D would fit your bill.
