The Chinese rebellion you may be referring to is the Taiping Rebellion, which occurred from 1850 to 1864. It was a massive civil war led by Hong Xiuquan, who claimed to be the younger brother of Jesus Christ, against the Qing Dynasty. The rebellion aimed to establish a new kingdom based on his interpretation of Christianity and resulted in significant loss of life and social upheaval. Another notable rebellion is the Boxer Rebellion of 1899-1901, which aimed to expel foreign influence from China.
If you are talking about prizefighting, the old English verb 'to box' means 'to punch, to hit'. If you are talking about the Chinese uprising (the 'Boxer Rebellion') of around 1900 AD, the name was a 'translation' by the British of the rebel group's Chinese name meaning "The Righteous and Harmonious Fists".
Boxer Rebellion
The Chinese Exclusion Act
Kublai Khan, as the Mongol ruler of China, aimed to maintain Mongol supremacy and control over the diverse population. He believed that placing Chinese in important government roles could lead to a loss of authority and potentially incite rebellion, as the Chinese had a long history of sophisticated governance and cultural identity. By favoring Mongols and other non-Chinese groups for high positions, Kublai sought to ensure loyalty and reinforce the Mongol elite's dominance in his administration. This strategy was also part of a broader approach to integrate but distinguish the Mongol rule from Chinese traditions.
The fall of the city of Shanghai ended the Taiping Rebellion. This event happened in August of 1860.
