Qin Shi Huang or Shi Huangdi, originally named Ying Zheng (November or December 259 BCE – 10 September 210 BCE), was the first emperor of Imperial China and the founder of the Qin dynasty.
By 221 BCE, he had conquered all of his opponents' kingdoms and founded the first Empire of China.[1] During his reign, the Templars assisted Qin Shi Huang with political and economic reforms, as well as constructions such as the Great Wall of China.[2]
Due to his Templar-influenced tyranny,[2] he was eventually killed in 210 BCE by the Assassin Wei Yu, who stabbed him with a spear during one of the emperor's Eastern China tours.[3]
