Boxer Rebellion Aftermath

The Boxer Rebellion led to significant financial reparations for China, amounting to billions in today's currency, alongside harsh penalties that further entrenched foreign influence. Despite the Qing government's initial support for the Boxers, the rebellion ultimately weakened the dynasty, contributing to its collapse in 1911. Interestingly, both the Republic and People's Republic of China later viewed the rebellion as a pivotal moment in reclaiming their sovereignty in the 20th century.
