About This Novel

The Revolution of 1911 refers to a nationwide revolution that took place in the year of Xinhai in the Chinese lunar calendar (the third year of Xuantong in the Qing Dynasty), that is, from 1911 to early 1912, and aimed to overthrow the Qing autocratic imperial dynasty and establish a republican system of government. As a democratic revolution, the Revolution of 1911 successfully overthrew the rule of the Qing Dynasty, ended China's imperial system, ushered in a new era of democratic republic, and made the concept of republic deeply rooted in the minds of the middle and upper classes of society. As a national revolution, the success of the Revolution of 1911 also had an important impact on ethnic relations in China and the national liberation movements in other Asian countries at the same time. A series of events before and after the Revolution of 1911 not only ended the previous efforts of the constitutionalists to implement a constitutional monarchy, but also had a key impact on the subsequent development of China's constitutional government and rule of law, central and local politics, and the relationship between the central and local governments.
