** __INTRODUCTION TO THE QING DYNASTY__  ** The Qing Dynasty, also known as the Manchu Dynasty, was the last ruling dynasty of China, ruling from 1644 to 1912, following the Ming Dynasty. It was founded by the Manchus (Manchuria). During its reign, the Qing Dynasty became highly integrated with Chinese culture. It was a period of prosperity, decay, stagnation, revolution, and laziness.  During the 1800s, its military power weakened, and was faced with international pressure, massive rebellions and defeats in wars. The Qing Dynasty declined after the mid-19th century and was overthrown following the Xinhai Revolution on February 12, 1912. ~ Shannon ~
