Cheetah's

Do you know a cheetah can run about 60mph in 3 seconds! Can you believe it! Cheetahs are avid (always run) runners. They can run very fast but after a while they will stop as they get quite tired. Some animals are lucky that the cheetahs get tired after chasing them but provided that the animal runs fast too. The animals that are lucky will escape in time while the others may get caught by the cheetah.The unlucky animals will be eaten and will be sent either to heaven or hell.

The Great Wall Of China

The Great Wall Of China is a chinese fortification from the 3rd century BC untill the beginning of the 17th BC in order to protect the various dynasties from raids by Monggol, Turkic and other nomadic tribes coming from modern days in Mongolia and Manchuria.It is built to protect China from invasion of Xiang Nu the people of Mongolia. The Xiangnu's tribe was China's main enemy at that time.The Chinese built the great wall to prevent from entering and conquering China.Origanlly made up of shorter walls between factions, the wall was fortified and lengthened under the emporer Qin Shi Huang beggining in 221 Bc.The defenders of China cold easily shoot arrows and cannons from the Gerat Wall, which was cleverly designed with small holes in the walls for defense and attack at the same time.Althogh the building of the architectural wonder sacrificed many lives, it was still worth it in the end as the Mongols were mostly kept out of China.The modern use of the wall is tourism, although much of it has fallen into disrepair or crumbled away completely.
