Remains of the Great Wall of the Warring States Period

At the end of the fifth century BC, at the turn of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the princes stood side by side and each claimed the title of king. They competed with each other for supremacy, so they built walls on their own territory to resist enemy invasion. According to historical records, the State of Chu built a city wall called Fangcheng in the area of ??present-day Henan and Hubei in the seventh century BC. It was the earliest Great Wall built in China. Later, Qi, Wei, Qin, Yan, Zhao and other countries also built tall underground walls on their frontiers. Because this kind of city wall is very long and different from the walls in ordinary cities, it is not enclosed around it, so it is called the Great Wall or Changyuan. The Great Wall built by various countries has its own structure, with various horizontal and vertical directions, some running east-west, and some running north-south, which are not consistent with the Great Wall we see today.

Some have disappeared from the ground and some are still standing today.
