Discover the remarkable history of the Qing Dynasty... Free BONUS Inside!

The history of China as a single nation began more than 2,000 years ago when Qin Shi Huangdi first united a group of warring kingdoms into a single empire. China was then ruled by a series of imperial dynasties until the last one -- the Qing Dynasty -- fell in 1912. The 275-year period of Qing rule saw China becoming a world superpower, gaining dominance over present-day Korea, Tibet, and Vietnam as well as becoming the center of global trade. However, it also included the most tumultuous times in China's long history. As acquisitive European kingdoms grew, they sought to expand their areas of power into Asia, using new military technologies and tactics that China, then clinging to traditional weapons and tactics, seemed powerless to oppose.

Nevertheless, it was internal turmoil that would finally destroy this dynasty. The Manchu elites who ruled China deliberately distanced themselves from the mass of Han Chinese people. This view of the rulers as outsiders led to a series of rebellions that began in 1794, continued throughout the nineteenth century, and finally led to the uprising that would destroy the Qing Dynasty at the beginning of the twentieth century. This is the story of a dynasty of immense power that was faced throughout its history by implacable foes both outside and in. This is the story of the bridge between traditional and modern China: the Qing Dynasty.
