Throughout the five thousand years in China, at the end of each dynasty, land annexation was serious, forcing farmers to have no food to eat, and starvation or uprising became their ultimate proposition. The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement was one of the most influential peasant uprisings in various dynasties, because it once had the possibility of winning the world.

The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom believed in worshipping God and preached equality for all, land to the tiller and keeping warm everywhere. These ideas are undoubtedly the dreams that every farmer in Qian Qian has been eagerly looking forward to for thousands of years. Therefore, the early Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was in full swing and easily won half of the country. If the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom really follows the political program of "land to the tiller, equality for all", it will be easy to seize the world.
All the advantages of peasant uprising are in Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, but all the disadvantages of peasant uprising are also in Tian Ping Heavenly Kingdom. After making Nanjing its capital, Hong Xiuquan's short-sighted talents began to appear. I was completely immersed in the dream of being an emperor, enjoying, enjoying, enjoying, and then the cruel political struggle between brothers finally ruined the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. I can't think of anything to say except "deserved it".

After the occupation of Nanjing, the tension of the leadership of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was relaxed. First of all, for their own interests, they promulgated various wonderful laws and regulations, and since then they have lost the hearts of the people. For example, men and women are not allowed to marry and live together.
The final outcome of the political struggle and interest struggle was the Tianjing incident, in which a group of important officials of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom died and fled. Since then, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom has been devastated, and there is no strength to compete for the world.
Until the death of Hong Xiuquan, according to "Notes on Spring Dreams in the South of the Yangtze River", there were 208 people in Hong Xiuquan's Heavenly Palace, including 16 celebrities such as loving mothers, opera mothers, wonderful girls and beautiful girls. Among the 24 princesses, there were 7 celebrities such as concubines and concubines. Together with the female officials who served in the palace, there were more than 2,300 women in the Heavenly Palace accompanying the Heavenly King and a man. This is no longer a luxury to describe, so the end of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, especially Hong Xiuquan, can be imagined later!
