About this listen
An introduction to the Great Qing State. The Qing replaced the Great Ming and ruled from 1644 until 1911. The vast empire ruled over 400 million subjects under Manchu leadership.
When the Qing met the Europeans arriving by sea, they saw no reason to change. But owing to a focus on Confucius and classical education, Qing officials were developing more slowly than the new arrivals. This became clear with the Opium War and the reverberations then spread throughout the Qing territories. When the Qing Dynasty fell, it was not replaced by a new dynasty, but by the Republic of China.
