China, Qing dynasty, 1 Cash – ND

Description

The end of the Ming dynasty is marked by the revolts, famines and generalized chaos. In this situation, Nurhaci, a Manchu leader, feudatary of the Ming, and even with a noble title granted by them, began to claim tribute and attack Ming positions in the north of the country. In 1636, his son Hong Taiji became crowning Emperor and founded the new Qing dynasty. Simultaneously, the Ming dynasty tried to survive the multiple revolts, one of which, headed by Li Zicheng, conquered the capital Beijing, inaugurating the brief Shun dynasty. General Ming Wu Sangui allied with the Qing, and together they defeated Li Zicheng in the Battalla del Paso de Sanhui. Thus the new dynasty settled in power, although it would take decades to end the ming redoubts of the south of the country. Hong Taiji laid the foundations of a new regime, strengthening the Han, and taking most of the organization and education of the Ming. The tensions that would end the dynasty unleashed with foreign intervention. All the evolution of the 20th against foreigners, and in particular against Christians. This became a rebellion (Boxer), which culminated in the invasion of foreign powers and the signing of a very unequal treaty with strong compensation. The dynasty tried to create tax and all kinds to support the coup, but many reformists saw it unable to advance, which would lead to the 1911 revolts, and the establishment of the Republic of China.
