Hint: We have to remember that the Qin followed the legalist proposals for state order and established a centralized bureaucracy and a finely detailed law code with specified punishments for each and every crime.

Complete answer:
We have to know that both dynasties were strict. But the Qin dynasty was way more cruel than the Han’s dynasty. The dynasties had many similarities. Both of the dynasties were tried for the unification of China through assimilation and centralization. The best place for Chinese students to educate themselves during the Han period was the grand school. At some point the grand school enrolled 30,000 thousand students. The Han dynasty gave the emperor full power but the Qin dynasty gave the emperor far more power than them. Both dynasties were ruled by bureaucracy. Both dynasties contributed to the Great Wall of China. These dynasties split their land into provinces. The economy was handled greatly by both the dynasties. The Qin dynasty took taxes from the citizens but the Han dynasty did not use any cruel way to receive taxes from their citizens. The Han dynasty was shaped by religion , but the Qin dynasty was not like that. The Qin dynasty didn’t use artwork like the Han dynasty. The Han dynasty was the second imperial dynasty of china.
