Hi, Ms.Morgie, I think you made a small mistake here, maybe a spelling mistake, how could Qin expect his "ancestors" to finish the wall? I think you mean his descendants. No, the Emperor Qin Shihuang didn't think so. Instead, he thought his empire could last from generations to generations, and the wall was built strong enought to stop the invade from the northern nomadic tribes, so he thought the wall was finished during his rule.
