China's Black Death Event: How the Taiping Rebellion Changed Everything

发布时间 2020-11-21 16:30:00    来源

摘要

In 1851, the Taiping Rebellion broke out. Over the next 14 years, a total war annihilated China's people, its society, and its economy. An estimated 20 million people died, making it one of the worst wars in world history. War is cruel. Civil wars and wars of religion more so. But the 150 years since the Taiping Civil War sanitized its cruelty. In this video, I want to illustrate just how deeply this war affected China. It is one of the defining events of the 19th century for China's economy, demography, and government. Links: - The Asianometry Newsletter: https://asianometry.substack.com
