Best Answer

Following the order of Ying Zheng (Qin Shi-huang), the first emperor of Qin Dynasty, about 700,000 craftsmen were gathered together from all over the country to undertake this super-project.

The Terra-cotta army was built for an ancient chinese, Qin dynasty Ruler named Qin shuangdi. The emperor was terribly afraid of death and he asked all the potters across the land to make the soldiers to protect his body. The soldiers were actually life-sized models of actual soldiers, if a soldier did not pose for a soldier-statue, he would be beheaded.

Was the Terracotta Army a real army or just statues?

It was an army of statues (Terra cotta is a clay ceramic and means "burnt earth" in Italian). By the way, the weapons in their hands are real.
