@@TDS-RN6889 this was a whole 40 year differents when germany was the german empire during ww1 and way before ww2. So i don't see how your comments has anything to do with what i said 3 months And the video/historical event is "mostly" about china not ww2 germany
Now after watching this, a great what if came to my mind. What if the Emperor's 100 day reform succeeded without the grumbling of the conservatives. Would the Qing empire survived much like what happen in Japan?
@@mr.notsonice aren't you giving China a bit too much credit. Japan was already very well established before China. It would have been an awesome sight of two asian titans duking it out.

Because the Boxer have rebellion

The boxers nickname them self that because they were good at martial arts

Excellent synopsis of the Boxer rebellion.

Japan would be screwed. An industrial and well established china could just roflstomp the rest of Asia.

Ngl the slogan "support the Qing, destroy the foreigners" sounds pretty cool to me

You already made a video like this like a long 4 years ago. Wow, time flies doesn’t it and 2020 is around the corner.
Why is there always one dislike once its uploaded?
Remake time
PS: have you read Joseph Esherick’s book on the rebellion? It’s good shit.
Great video thanks mate
Sooooo if other countries woulda have left china alone instead of invading their land and expecting them to comply would this be prevented?
ahh,I see he made an updated one,intresting
Something original that's not first
Isnt this technically a reupload?
Kevin Paul he said he’s redoing a lot of old videos
But didn’t already created a video about the Boxer Rebellion?

Hi.
general kenobi
We had a chance to make China our colony but we screwed up
The year t,was 1900
This is clicobait.. why? Because it's 4 minutes instead of 3 minutes
Clicobait?
not second
It's Peking not Beijing.
Just use the more well used name. So if you were to google that siege, its called the more often called the siege of Peking.
It's the same name, just using different transcriptions.
They are different Latin spellings of the same Chinese characters.
Peking is just the Colonial name for Beijing.
I do not approve of this bideo
