Definition: Boxer Rebellion
Boxers were Chinese people who
resented imperialism. They were upset about foreign nations taking
over what they believed was rightfully theirs. In addition, they
resented Chinese conversions to Christianity. In 1900, they began a
rebellion. European nations and the United States ended this
uprising rather quickly. It would be decades before China rid itself
of all foreign interests.
