The Great Wall of China was helpful in many ways to the ancient Chinese people. First, in around 214 B.C Shih Huang Ti started the Great Wall of China that was the biggest engineering project in history. There were several great function to help China which I thought was pretty cool. First, it was made to protect China from invaders like Mongolians. Second, it was used for military transportation. Finally when invaders attacked they could quickly counter attack with the inside wall. Then the later emperors expanded the wall and was eventually 4,000 miles east to west across China..Overall the Great Wall of China has kept China safe from invaders for thousands of years.
