Boxer Rebellion

Approximately 1,000 Australian troops participated in the Boxer Rebellion, which took place in China between 1899 and 1901. These troops were primarily drawn from the colonial forces of Australia and served as part of a larger international military coalition aimed at suppressing the Boxer uprising. Australia's involvement marked one of its early contributions to international military operations.

The Boxer Rebellion (1899-1901) was an anti-foreign, anti-Christian uprising in China led by the "Boxers," a secret society that sought to expel foreign influence and restore Chinese sovereignty. It culminated in an international coalition intervening to suppress the rebellion, resulting in significant foreign control over China.

The Sepoy Rebellion (1857-1858), also known as the Indian Mutiny, was a revolt by Indian soldiers (sepoys) against British rule in India, sparked by grievances related to cultural insensitivity and the introduction of new rifle cartridges believed to be greased with animal fat. The rebellion was ultimately suppressed by British forces, leading to the establishment of direct British governance over India and the dissolution of the East India Company.

Viewing boxers positively highlights their dedication, discipline, and the immense physical and mental training they undergo to excel in a challenging sport. They often serve as role models, inspiring others through their resilience and commitment. Conversely, a negative perspective may arise from concerns about the health risks associated with the sport, including injuries and long-term consequences of concussions. Additionally, the culture surrounding boxing can sometimes glamorize violence, which raises ethical questions about promoting such a sport in society.

True. The Boxer Rebellion, which took place from 1899 to 1901, was fueled by widespread resentment among Chinese nationals towards foreign powers and missionaries who were seen as encroaching on Chinese sovereignty and culture. The movement, led by the "Boxers," aimed to expel foreign influence and restore traditional Chinese values. This anti-foreign sentiment culminated in violent uprisings against both foreigners and Chinese Christians.

The two prominent leaders of the Boxer Rebellion were Hong Xiuquan and Zhang Zhidong. Hong Xiuquan was the founder of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and a key figure in the movement, although he was not directly involved in the Boxer Rebellion itself. Zhang Zhidong, while not a leader of the Boxers, was an influential Qing dynasty official who played a significant role in responding to the uprising and advocating for modernization within China. The Boxers themselves were primarily organized by local leaders and secret societies rather than a singular leadership.

America's partial return of the Boxer Rebellion money helped to improve Chinese attitudes toward the West. It demonstrated a willingness to take responsibility for their actions and showed respect for Chinese sovereignty. This gesture of goodwill played a role in repairing relations between China and the Western powers.

This Guy is an idiot dont listen to him. He obviously has no idea what the Boxer rebellion was.

The reason the "Boxers" were called Boxers is because during the rebellion the boxers had banners and on the banners was a black closed fist so the people getting attacked thought they were boxers

America and American troops were not involved in the basically maritime-only Russo-Japanese War, however American President Theodore Roosevelt was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for mediating the end of the war between the two belligerents.

The Boxers attacked Western-owned factories.

The U.S.A. and its allies gave peace.

The Chinese group which rebeled against foreign rule called themselves the Righteous and Harmonious Fists. Boxer was a name given to them by the foreigners. I can only speculate that it was because of the association of boxers and fists, and done in the interests of brevity. It was a long name to say when translated to the languages of China's eleven foreign occupiers, except perhaps to the Japanese.

United States involvement in the Boxer Rebellion would have contradicted the ideals George Washington laid out in his farewell address. It also would have violated the Monroe Doctrine by becoming involved in Europe's colonial matters
