A political scientist's--me/mine--dream TV series--Qin Empire-

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uam8IAvXiJU

This episode includes political debates.

Clearly this is historical fiction-

Beautifully done--

All fiction is writing an alternative story.

This one has Qin emperor with experts --debating role of the state.

It reminds me of The Federalist--which says the state should have its legs broken to be less powerful, and Robert Bolt's play--A Man for all Seasons, based on the life of Sir Thomas More--who was executed.

At one point More says "But if there were no law's--how the winds would blow"

Something like that.

Robert Bolt was a school teacher.

The only comparable TV series are George Washington from the 1980s and the recent Indian series on Chandragupta Maurya. Kyi May Kaung 10-9-2024
