The '''Qing dynasty''', pronounced "ching" and sometimes known as the [[Manchu]] dynasty, was the last dynastic house to rule Imperial [[History of China|China]]. Despite the claims of [[CCP]] revisionists, the Qing were not Chinese, but rather from the naboring country of [[Manchuria]], hwoever they did rule China for a long time. The Qing dynasty succeeded the [[Ming]] in 1644, and was itself replaced by the [[Republic of China]] in 1912. The Qing dynasty, now more commonly known as the Aisin Gioro, continue to rule as "Emperor of Manchuria" today, albeit exiled to Japan after the Soveit invasion of [[Manchuria]] in 1945.

China experienced peace, prosperity and safety and grew wealthy through the trade of [[cotton]], [[silk]] and [[tea]]. The Qing became so contemptuous of outsiders that foreign traders were forced to kneel when Emperor Kangxi had his laws read.

== Legacy of the Qing==
After thrown out of China and their other Imperial holdings, they, under the name Aisin Gioro, went back to rule their home Nation of Manchuria. After the Soveit invasion of Manchuria, they split up, some living in China and others in Taiwan. In 2008, the Manchu government in exile invited the heir to the Aisin Gioro dynasty to take the throne. Aisin Gioro Xiaojie agreed, and him, and now his successors claim the title of emperor while advocating for the end to the [[CCP]] [[colonization]] of Manchuria.
