Chinese (Civ4)

The Chinese people represent a civilization in Civilization IV.
== Strategy ==
China is a strong defensive civilization well-suited to playing tall (developing a handful of cities as opposed to settling and annexing many others) and achieving a Cultural Victory.
If you choose Qin Shi Huang, it is a good idea to quickly snap up Stonehenge and the Oracle to immediately gain a cultural advantage over the other civs, which links in well with China's unique replacement for the Theatre, the Pavilion. By building the Oracle (and taking Metal Casting as your free technology) followed by a quick Forge, you can run an Engineer specialist in your city and work towards a Great Engineer who can invent Machinery, while also taking care to research Archery and link up to an Iron resource. The goal of this strategy is to gain access to the unique Cho-Ko-Nu very early in the game, giving you a very large military advantage.
The Cho-Ko-Nu benefits immensely from Qin Shi Huang's Protective trait as well as the Drill line of promotions. With Drill IV, your Cho-Ko-Nu will have a positively silly number of first strikes (5-8), allowing them to protect your cities from early invasion attempts and melt enemy units and stacks alike. Just be mindful of mounted units like Horse Archers and Knights, which are immune to first strikes and will still mow down your Cho-Ko-Nu with ease.
