The largest wall ever made in human history isn't the great wall of china it was a wall located in Edo Nigeria during the Benin kingdom it was four times larger than the great wall of china and consumed more material than the pyramids of Giza. It is also believed that it isn't just the largest wall but the largest man-made structure in human history. It was destroyed due to colonization and urbanization.

basically Great Wall was only penetrated once in ancient time. So the rate of conquering the wall was once in thousands of years. Other than Genghis Khan, the rest of nomadic invaders was let through by Chinese rebels who joined the Nomadic kingdom. The gate of Great Wall was opened from inside China instead.

Funny how China could build a giant wall back then that kept out invaders, but nowadays they have trouble building bridges and dams that won't crumble.
