How has china changed in recent years?
It has changed because the one child policy that had been there since 1979 has now been slightly relaxed by the Chinese Government so that couples can now apply to have a second child if there first child was a girl or if they are both an only child. This allows the gender imbalance in China to improve in years to come because at the moment it is thought that there are 60 million more men than women. China is becoming a nicer place to live because of this newly relaxed policy.
What does the great wall tell us about Chinese history and their culture?
The great wall's Chinese culture reflects from when Shi Huangdi was ruler, who started the Great Wall from the Yellow Sea in the east to the Gobi Desert in the West.
The Great wall was also first come together from smaller walls to discourage attacks from nothern nomads. Thus Shi Huangdi was determined to close up the gaps and unify the wall 1,400 miles to the west. His thinking at the time was so if enemies decided to come they would have to gallop halfway to Tibet to get around it.
He forced peasents to build the wall. If they did not, their only choice other than building the wall was death. Many of them worked on the wall and still died anyway. They did not work for wages, and really did not love the empire.
Now, since the Great wall is so Huge, that it is one of the few human-made features on Earth visible from space.

After the fall of Shi Huangdi his son proved less able to be powerful. The peasents rebelled years and years after the second Qin Dynasty took in office.

Because it is an amazing feat to build something that enormous. It's kind of like why we go to see the pyramids or to Stonehenge. We admire the work that it took to build something like that before modern engineering, plus it is recognizable and something that people mention about a particular country, so it becomes a tourist destination.
