请把这篇英语短文翻译一下。

The Great Wall of China is a series of stone and earthen fortifications in China, built, rebuilt, and maintained between the 6th century BC and the 16th century to protect the northern borders of the Chinese Empire during the rule of successive dynasties. Several walls, referred to as the Great Wall of China, were built since the 5th century BC. The most famous is the wall built between 220–200 BC by the first Emperor of China, Qin Shi Huang; little of it remains; it was much farther north than the current wall, which was built during the Ming Dynasty.

中国的长城是以石头和陶土制造的中国防御要塞。长城在公元前6世纪到公元后16世纪之间经过建造、重建和养护，一直保护着中国封建帝国的北方边境，其间经历了好几个朝代。长城中的几段从公元前5世纪就开始建造。最著名的历史事件是公元前220-200年中国第一个帝王秦始皇修建长城，如今秦始皇修建的长城只剩下一点点，位置在现在的长城以北很远的地方，而现在的长城是明代时修建的。
