In the long river of history, the Qing Dynasty was a three-hundred-year history that was magnificent and full of vicissitudes.
The rise of the Qing Dynasty originated from Nurhaci's raising an army with thirteen armors, which laid the foundation for the establishment of the Qing Dynasty. Huang Taiji inherited his father's legacy, further expanded his power, and changed the country's name to Qing. By the time Shunzhi entered the customs and established the Central Plains, the Qing Dynasty had begun to rule the country.
Emperor Kangxi came to the throne at a young age, but he showed extraordinary wisdom and military ability. He captured Obai, pacified the three vassals, and personally conquered Galdan. A series of measures stabilized the Qing Dynasty and created a good start for the prosperous age of Kangxi and Qianlong.
Emperor Yongzheng worked hard to rectify the administration of officials, and implemented reform measures such as apportioning farmers to farmers, which filled the national treasury and further laid a solid foundation for the prosperity of the Qianlong period.
After its peak, it declined. In the late Qianlong period, extravagance gradually emerged and officialdom became corrupt. Although Jiaqing was determined to rectify the situation, it was difficult to turn things around. Opium was rampant, the great powers closed the country, the Taiping Rebellion was raging, the British and French forces invaded China, and the Old Summer Palace was burned down. Although there were self-rescue attempts such as the Westernization Movement, the decay of the feudal system was deeply rooted in the bones, and it was difficult to save the building from collapse. Finally, the gunshot of the Revolution of 1911 ended the rule of the Qing Dynasty.
During the three hundred years of the Qing Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty experienced glory and loneliness, prosperity and decline.
Every detail is worth savoring, taking history as a mirror, knowing the ups and downs, and knowing the gains and losses.
