Before it was united, how was China organized?

Below will give a brief summary of how it was organised

Explanation:

Much of traditional Chinese culture, literature and philosophy first developed during those troubled times. In 221 BC, Qin Shi Huang conquered the various warring states and created for himself the title of Huangdi or "emperor" of the Qin, marking the beginning of imperial China.

China's last dynasty was the Qing (1644-1912), which was replaced by the Republic of China in 1912, and then in the mainland by the People's Republic of China in 1949.

Cina (derived from the name of the Chinese Qin Dynasty, pronounced 'Chin') which was translated as 'Cin' by the Persians and seems to have become popularized through trade along the Silk Road from China to the rest of the world.
