Abstract

This paper studies the theocratic elements contained in the Qin Dynasty as a whole based on the sacrificial benefits and the promulgation of decrees of the first emperor of the Qin Dynasty “Qin Shi Huang”. This is to demonstrate the formal logic behind Qin Shi Huang’s promulgation of decrees and activities, thereby helping to better understand Qin Shi Huang’s behavior. The research method of this paper is literature reading, and the characteristics of Qin Shi Huang and the early decrees of the Qin Dynasty are analyzed by reading and publishing more than 20 related research on paper websites such as Google Scholar and Jstor. Finally, it is found that there was a rich theocratic color in the sacrificial activities of the early Qin Dynasty and the promulgation of Qin Shi Huang's decrees.
