Question 10 • World History

Which is the correct order of events that eventually led to the collapse of the Chinese imperial government?

Answer
A
rise of nationalism, Opium Wars, Taiping Rebellion, Boxer Rebellion
B
Opium Wars, rise of nationalism, Taiping Rebellion, Boxer Rebellion
C
Opium Wars, Taiping Rebellion, Boxer Rebellion, rise of nationalism
D
rise of nationalism, Boxer Rebellion, Opium Wars, Taiping Rebellion

Explanation

The Opium Wars came first, beginning in 1839. The Taiping Rebellion followed in 1850, and the Boxer Rebellion occurred later, from 1899 to 1901. Chinese nationalism grew stronger afterward and helped bring about the 1911 Revolution, which ended imperial rule. So the correct order is “Opium Wars, Taiping Rebellion, Boxer Rebellion, rise of nationalism.”
