What did The Boxers believe in the boxer rebellion?
The Boxers, so called by Europeans, who observed that the ill-equipped rebels often fought with their fists, rose up in opposition to foreign influence in China. During the second half of the 19th Century, the weak Qing Dynasty was forced to make a series of "unequal treaties" with foreign powers, which allowed for exploitative trade agreements, Christian missionaries, and legal immunity for foreigners. The Boxers attacked foreign merchants, missionaries, and Chinese Christians, who had converted under the tutelage of Western missionaries. Foreign embassies were placed under siege, and the Chinese military split on whether to help the Boxers or to put down the rebellion. After a Western and Japanese intervention force put down the rebellion, Chinese authorities claimed they opposed the Boxers all along, but in reality, the Empress Dowager and some of her generals supported the uprising, while other generals fought the Boxers.
