The challenge is to make a powerful,meritocratic,heavily centralized and expansionist state similar to the Qin Kingdom from China in Western Europe with a goal of unifying western Europe,thus plunging WE in a warring states period.Such a state should be formed(by forming I don't mean it has to become extremely powerful between 900 CE and 1100 CE,but at least heavily centralized,meritocratic and in a state to really expand) no sooner than 900 C.E. and no later than 1100 C.E.What are things that's necessary to start such a state?
