For little under fourteen years, the Taiping Rebellion waged over China. Seventeen provinces were ravished and the estimated loss of life is between 20 and 25 million. It is the deadliest civil war, one of the deadliest wars ever, and the largest conflict of the 19th century. The Qing dynasty, however, was not only faced with the Taiping rebellion during this time but with several other (the Panthay, Dungan and Nian rebellion) rebellions throughout the country and the second opium war. It is one of the bloodiest episodes in Chinese history, which…really says something. and it raises an interesting question, how did the Qing manage to stay in power during this carnage?

About the 'End of Empire' series:

China's Qing Dynasty was faced with internal rebellions, widespread corruption and natural disasters throughout the 19th century. Furthermore, it suffered humiliating defeats at the hands of Western powers and Japan. It makes one wonder how the Qing Dynasty managed to stay in power during this time. The Taiping rebellion will be the start of this series about the downfall of the Qing Dynasty. Over the course of several weeks, I will delve into the major events that happened in China from 1850 to 1911 and attempt to understand and shed light on the last death throes of the once mighty Qing dynasty.
