Yuan Shikai made great contributions to the successful reunification of the North and the South in the Republic of China, and there was no single soldier. It turned out that at the beginning of the founding of Nanjing, after Sun Yat-sen became the interim president, in order to complete the reunification of the North and the South of the Republic of China and overthrow the Manchu dynasty in Beijing, Sun Yat-sen and Yuan Shikai had a secret agreement: Yuan forced the Qing emperor to abdicate, and Sun was willing to give way to Yuan as the president. Look at Sun Yat-sen's telegram to Yuan again:

Premier of Beijing: Wen arrived in Shanghai the day before yesterday, and all his comrades are temporary, so Wen has the responsibility to serve temporarily. When the public regarded Kun as their post, they realized that a trillion dollars belonged to hope. However, the suspicion cannot be avoided at present, and the article has been temporarily accepted, and the short position will be announced in the future. I hope to plan ahead and comfort the desire of 40 million people.

Premier Yuan (Prime Minister of the Qing Cabinet) got the secret message and did it boldly. Perform many tricks. Finally, Empress Yulong was forced to give in, and the last emperor of China feudal dynasty withdrew from the historical stage! On December 25, the third year of Xuantong in Qing Dynasty, that is, on February 12 of the first year of the Republic of China, the Great Republic of China was formally established. Subsequently, Sun Yat-sen recommended Yuan to the Senate as the interim president.

During the Republic of China, five ethnic groups (Han, Manchu, Mongolian, Hui and Tibetan) were mentioned, and the national flag was a five-color flag; 19 12 was the first year of the Republic of China, which was divided into 22 provinces with a governor. National Day is set at 10+00 every year.
