Qin Shi Huang, born as Ying Zheng in 259 BC, was the son of the king of the Qin State. At the age of thirteen, he succeeded his father's regality. Ying Zheng was very aggressive and ambitious at an early age. He assumed full power at 22 by ridding himself of his premier, Lu Buwei, who acted as regent while he was a minor. He wanted to unify and subjugate all the states like Han, Zhao, Wei, Chu, Yan and Qi by the powerful political, economic and military strength of the Qin State. Ying Zheng realized his ambition and built the first feudal and centralized empire in Chinese history in 221 BC. This was what we called - the Qin Dynasty (221 BC - 206 BC). Ying Zheng was the first emperor of a united China, so he proclaimed himself Qin Shi Huang. When Ying Zheng unified China, he considered his achievement surpassing the legendary "San Huang (three emperors)" and "Wu Di (five sovereigns)". He created a new title for himself: "Huangdi" together with "Shi (means the first)", hence get the name "Qin Shi Huang" or "Qin Shi Huangdi", which means he was the first emperor of China. He hoped his descendants would follow in his steps to rule the country for eternity. In order to consolidate the nascent empire, Qin Shi Huang reformed politics, economy and culture. In politics, he abolished the hereditary vassal enfeoffment system and established prefectures and counties, ruled directly by the emperor. Based on the original rules of the Qin State, the emperor adopted some regulations of other rival states to form a workable law of the Qin Dynasty. In economy, he claimed that both the agriculture and commerce were very important. People should have them developed together. Besides, tax system began to function and coinage and metrology were all standardized. In culture, the emperor unified the Chinese characters in writing, which promoted the development of culture. However, he also suppressed scholars who were not to his liking. Consequently, many scholars involved were killed in Xianyang. The symbol of the Chinese ancient civilization, the Great Wall bears witness to Qin Shi Huang's centralism. He ordered conscript laborers to link together the defensive works against marauding nomads already built by the former states. That was the forerunner of the modern Great Wall. Another world-famous achievement is the Terracotta Warriors and Horses in Xi'an, which was discovered nearby the mausoleum of Emperor Qin Shi Huang. Both are the wonders of China. But during their construction, countless conscripts lost their lives. It's really wasting manpower and resources. Qin Shi Huang longed for longevity, so he sent his ministers to go on quests seeking for an elixir of immortality. However, death claimed him before he could find success on that matter. He departed from the world of the living in 210 BC while traveling. The Peasant Uprising led by Chen Sheng and Wu Guang broke out soon after Hu Hai, the second generation, got onto the throne. Accordingly, the Qin Dynasty came to an abrupt end in 206 BC. Qin Shi Huang is truly an epoch-making historic emperor in history.

Which is an example of humans interacting with their environment

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer : 

There are three ways in which humans and environment interact with each other : 

Humans Depend on the Environment: The natural environment is made up of living things and non living things. Humans depend on the natural environment for their basic needs; food, shelter, and clothing.
Humans Modify the Environment: People modify (change) the natural environment to meet their needs. For example, they build dams, plow and irrigate fields, and dig mines. They build houses, schools, and shopping centers on land. This also includes human's impact on the earth's health. Creating pollution, litter and carbon dioxide all affect the earth's condition.
Humans Adapt to the Environment: Humans have settled in virtually every corner of the world by successfully adapting to various natural settings. 
have settled in virtually every corner of the world by successfully adapting to various natural settings. For example, people who live in the northern United States use heating units to keep their homes warm in winter. People in the southern part of the United States use air conditioning most of the year to stay cool in the heat. In addition, in countries where earthquakes are common homes and buildings are built to survive an earthquake.

Identify and describe the environmental impact of development on the amazon basin.

Nadya [2.5K]

The Amazon Basin is located in brazil. For centuries, this has protected the area, people, and the animals residing in it. Forest recession has occurred in the past 30 years due to increased industry and population growth through road projects, settlement initiatives, and industrial development.

The Amazon Basin includes a diversity of traditional inhabitants as well as biodiversity in both flora and fauna. These peoples have lived in the rain forest for thousands of years, and their lifestyles and cultures are well-adapted to this environment. Contrary to popular belief, their subsistence living methods do not significantly harm the environment. In the past few decades, the real threat to the Amazon Basin has been deforestation, poaching, and cattle ranching by transnational corporations.

Oil and gas development often also takes a heavy toll on the environment and local people; especially in rainforest areas where it can cause displacement of local people, air and water pollution, and construction of roads that open previously inaccessible areas to deforestation.

That said, even a new NASA study shows that over the last 20 years, the atmosphere above the Amazon Basin has been drying out, increasing the demand for water and leaving ecosystems vulnerable to fires and drought. It also shows that this increase in dryness is primarily the result of human activities.

Summary: all impacts caused by human development in the Amazon Basin is causing the atmosphere to go bad, the crops and indigenous plants to die at alarming rates, the water to be polluted, and the animals and humans who are indigenous of the area suffer the consequences.
