∙ 14y agoSun Yat-sen was a monumental figure in modern Chinese history. Known as "The Father of the Chinese Republic", Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary ideas inspired the Wuchang Uprising in 1911, putting an end to Manchurian rule (the Qing Dynasty), and restoring power to the Han Chinese.
After the uprising, he was named the first president of the Republic of China; however, his reign lasted only 3 months before an ambitious general, Yuan Shikai, forced Sun to abdicate, taking power for himself.
Sun never again assumed power, but his ideas live on in the spirit of China and Taiwan. His political philosophy, "Three Principles of the People" provided the basis for the Chinese nationalist movement, and is still relevant today-its ideas are expressed in the Constitution of the Republic of China.
