During the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty, the government imposed excessive taxes, officials acted arrogantly, and natural disasters continued in various places. As a result, the people were in dire straits and lost their lives. The contradiction between the landlords and the peasant class continued to become acute. At this time, farmers represented by Hong Xiuquan launched a vigorous Taiping Rebellion movement, starting from the promotion of God worship. This is a large-scale anti-feudal and anti-aggression peasant movement in modern China. It is also the highest peak of Chinese peasant wars in thousands of years.
