Believe it or not, the agrarian state predates China by thousands of years. It goes back 10k years to the early farmer migration into Southern Europe from the Middle East. And yes, I am very well aware of the Great Wall of China lol
Okay, so first thing I wasn't talking about the great wall. That wasn't created until the Ming dynasty which is after the period I'm talking about. And second I mean the first agrarian settlements in China.

The most famous parts of the Great Wall were built in the Ming Dynasty, but stretches of the wall were first built centuries before:
>...Several walls were built from as early as the 7th century BC,[4] with selective stretches later joined by Qin Shi Huang (220–206 BC), the first emperor of China. Little of the Qin wall remains.[5] Later on, many successive dynasties built and maintained multiple stretches of border walls. The best-known sections of the wall were built by the Ming dynasty (1368–1644).
