The estimated burial time of the Terracotta Army is around 209 BCE, and the discovery time is 1974 CE. Thus, the Terracotta Army was buried for 2100 years at least.
He ordered to build the Terracotta Army as his tomb guard in accordance with the appearance of his elite soldiers.
The Terracotta Army was formed by the first emporer. The first Emporer formed the army to protect his tomb, in which it took 11 years to build all these warrios standing in battle formation. The Terracotta Warriors purpose was to stand in front of the tomb and look like actual life size people guarding the tomb, "to protect the tomb" this scared of approchers, but some approchures didnt fall for this trick and stole some of the weapons, photographs, and sentimental valuables.
The Terracotta Army warriors were originally underground.

It was not the Terracotta Army that Qin Shihuang used to take the whole country, but the soldiers who the Terracotta Army modelled after. Thus the unification of China by Qin Shihuang was happened in 221 BCE.
A fact about the terracotta army is that 1.All of the clay soldiers represent one of the soldiers that was in the army. So it basically represents the soldiers that was in the army.
