The Boxers were a secret society of young men trained in Chinese Martial Arts, and believed to have spiritual powers. They were very anti-foreign and anti-missionary. They provided the spark for a widespread revolt in northern China. Groups of Boxers attacked foreign engineers, tearing up railway lines, and then marched on Beijing in 1900. They attacked the foreign legations in the city, home to thousands of Western diplomats and merchants. Yet, these legations managed to withstand the siege for 55 days, until more aid came to their side. Nearly 20,000 troops from Britain, France, the U.S., Germany, Italy, Japan, and Russia tried to repress the Boxer movement.
Why were these Boxers important? The Boxer Rebellion was key as an anti-imperialist movement because it revealed the weakness of the Europeans' imperial power. It, in a sense, dramatized how much the Europeans would have to devote to maintaining power overseas.
