Warring States Annexation Policies

Warring States Annexation Policies refer to strategies used by powerful states during China’s Warring States period (475–221 BCE) to expand their territory. They involved diplomatic negotiations, alliances, and military conquest to bring smaller states under a dominant ruler’s control. The policies prioritized strengthening the state’s resources, territory, and influence, often through careful planning and warfare. This process gradually unified China under the Qin Dynasty, ultimately ending the period of constant conflict among competing states.
