As the world's oldest continuous civilisation, it was first unified in 221 BC, under Emperor Qin Shi Huang. Its the tomb of this ruler the Terracotta Army is guarding at Xi'an. Later, the Ming Dynasty (1368–1644) is known for trade and exploration and during this time Beijing's famous architectural and cultural treasures, the Forbidden City and the Temple of Heaven, were built.
