The Last Emperor: A Primer Little Boy, Big Changes

Aixinjueluo Puyi, Emperor of China 1908 – 1924: He became emperor of the Qing Dynasty when he was 2 years and 10 months old. The Last Emperor sitting on the Imperial Throne. A Little Boy to Rule China

Empress Dowager Cixi of the Qing – Ruled over China from 1861 – 1908 when she died. She gave the throne to Puyi. An Empress Dies and Leaves Puyi as Emperor

Emperor Puyi was the last of the line of emperors of the Qing Dynasty (1644 – 1912 officially), also known as the Manchu Dynasty. What Did China Look Like Under Qing Rule?

Manchuria: Northeast China – The Qing or “Manchu” Dynasty took control of China becoming the last dynasty to rule the Middle Kingdom. The Manchu were a ruling minority to the rest of the predominantly Han Chinese. Where Did the Qing “Manchu” Come From?

Where Did the Emperor Live? The Forbidden City, Beijing – The Emperor lived here mostly in the winter. (Click here for a PowerPoint on this place)Click here

Summer Palace, Beijing – The Emperor’s second home was here. (Over 700 acres and 3,000 structures)

Summer Palace, Beijing - Empress Cixi spent a fortune on lavish items, such as this boat rather than funding the royal navy. Japan’s navy easily defeated the Chinese boats in the Sino-Japanese War. Battle of the Yellow Sea Battle of the Yellow Sea (Visualizing Cultures MIT – Japanese perspective. Modern Japan v. Backwards China)

In 1912, Dr. Sun Yat-sen became president of China once the Qing Dynasty was overthrown during the Xinhai Revolution. Puyi became the “non-ruling emperor” at this time inside the walls of the Forbidden City. The Qing Dynasty Falls and a New Leader Rises Flag of the Republic of China

Just a child, Puyi was unlikely unaware of all the politics going on outside the Forbidden City, in addition to the fact that he wasn’t the Emperor of China anymore. Emperor of the Forbidden City Only

Outside the Forbidden City – China in Chaos (Warlord Era) Warlords fought over China until the 1940’s. Chiang Kai-shek, leader of the Kuomintang (Republic of China – Tiawan today) rose out of this civil war. A Divided China

From 1927 to 1949, China endured a civil war between the Nationalists (Republic of China) and the Communists (People’s Republic of China). During this period, World War II was fought and the Japanese took advantage of China’s weakened state. Chiang Kai-shek and Sun Yat-sen Chiang Kai-shek, leader of the Kuomintang (ROC) forces.

The Japanese controlled territory of China in They used former Emperor, Puyi, to head a “puppet” government.

The Puppet Emperor of China Japanese Flag in WWII Puyi, Emperor of Japanese controlled Manchukuo.

Japan loses WWII and Manchukuo collapses with it. The Japanese delegation on the USS Missouri formally surrendering to Allied forces.

The Emperor of China No More Puyi was captured by the Soviet Red Army and eventually handed over to the Chinese Communists. He was locked in a “Re-education camp” for 10 years before he was released as a Chinese communist citizen. Puyi became a gardener and lived a life of a normal Chinese citizen of that time.

Forbidden No More The Forbidden City is now a popular world tourist stop, no longer forbidden for the general public.
