China: Qin empire (221)

Sunday night: open China at the reading room. China keeps the year 221. China keeps the line “Qin empire”. China keeps the figure 221. On the notebook, China shows 221 first. Next to China, the figure stays 221. Under China, leave “Qin empire”. China is read again after one place. In the evening, China returns to 221.

China is the 221 record “Qin empire”, and the figure beside it is 221. This week, read one item from one region, and do not gather several regions onto one scoreboard. Keep only figures of language, population, or movement, and do not write a grade of a group. This week, write only that region’s name, the year, and the figure in the notebook, and read them as a record of a place where people live.
