Having unified China, he and his prime minister Lǐ Sī passed a series of major reforms aimed at cementing the unification, and they undertook some gigantic construction projects, most notably the precursor version of the current Great Wall of China. For all the tyranny of his autocratic rule, Qin Shi Huang is still regarded by many today as the founding father in Chinese history whose unification of China has lasted for more than two millennia (with interruptions). This achievement may represent one of the most enduring legacies of any ruler in history. China developed a strong bias towards unity that has generally helped to promote trade and cultural life by minimizing the conflict that would otherwise have taken place between rival states. The lessons from the Warring States Period proved to be well learnt. The Chinese script was also unified during Huang's reign. His reputation for ruthlessness may have influenced the later doctrine that a ruler who abused power, and did not consider his subjects' welfare, forfeited the "mandate of heaven," that is, the moral right to rule. However, many aspects of his administrative system became lasting features of Chinese society.
