National Mourning

Since the victory of the Wuchang Uprising launched by the revolutionaries on October 10, 1911, 17 of the original 22 provinces of the Qing Dynasty have successively declared independence from the Qing government. At the same time, 17 provinces sent representatives to elect Sun Yat-sen as the interim president of the Republic of China. On January 1, 1912, Sun Yat-sen was officially sworn in as the provisional president, and changed the name of the country to China Government, with Nanjing as the provisional capital, and 1912 as the first year of the Republic of China. Since then, the Republic of China, Asia's first democratic republic, was officially established. From 1912 to 1949, the national government retreated to Taiwan. This nation went through many hardships, but the Chinese people continued to strive for self-improvement, fought hard, and wrote beautiful chapters with their blood.
