Great
Wall wasn't the former boundary of China, Why?
The
Great Wall is a product of contradictions between various ruling cliques
in ancient China. It is scattered in all direction--south, north, east
and west. More than 20 walls had been built in some sections as reinforcement.
Prefectures and counties were set up by the Chinese government since
the time of Qin Shi Huang inside and outside the Great Wall.
The Great
Wall blunt during the Han Dynasty went northward beyond the limit of
the Qin-wall by several hundred kilometers and even l,000 km in some
places. In Ming Dynasty Nuergan Du Si (a sort of provincial governmental
institute) had been set up in a place now in the Soviet Union called
Nicholayevsk, more than l,000 km from Shanhaiguan Pass. This was a Chinese
organ dealing with military and civil affairs in the region. The Great Wall,
therefore, had never been China's boundary. Nor was it a demarcation
line for fixing administrative areas in China.
