Ming and Qing Dynasties are two dynasties with far-reaching influence in the history of China. As for which dynasty was stronger, the Ming dynasty was dominant, and the per capita GDP accounted for 75% of the world economy. One third of the world's silver was earned by China, and capitalism appeared.
Militarily, Emperor Taizong wiped out the Mongolian empire across the world, and five expeditions of Emperor Taizong swept through Mongolia, allowing the descendants of Genghis Khan to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty. Small Japan, conquered by Emperor Wanli, did not dare to go to sea for hundreds of years (otherwise the Tatar Qing Dynasty would have to cede territory in advance to pay reparations). Zong Yi expected Rowan to win (the dynasty almost wiped out the main force of Dutch sea coachmen to the East Asian navy in a few years).
In the Ming Dynasty, Zheng He went to the West to open to the outside world, and all ethnic groups bathed in it. Zheng He's feat of going to the West attracted worldwide attention, and the Qing Dynasty was not completely closed to the outside world. It should be noted that the Panchen Lama and the Dalai Lama entered Beijing in the Qing Dynasty, which politically confirmed China's sovereignty over Tibet.
The Qing dynasty can hardly compete with the Ming dynasty in foreign wars. When the Ming Dynasty was at its lowest ebb, Zheng successfully recovered Taiwan Province Province. In the heyday of the Qing Dynasty, jaxa was ceded by the Treaty of Nebuchadnezzar.
The Wanli era of the Ming Dynasty was also able to drive Japan into the sea. Not to mention the fiasco in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, when Taiwan Province Province was ceded. Watching South Korea be annexed by Japan. Not to mention, Russia and Japan fought in the northeast. Facing aggression. The Ming Dynasty swore to defend Beijing and defeated the invaders twice. The Qing dynasty escaped twice. As a result, the capital fell twice and the palace was burned down, once by the British and French allied forces and once by Eight-Nation Alliance.
Extended data
1: The emperor of the Ming Dynasty, that is to say, the core of imperial leadership is more backbone than that of the Qing Dynasty. What can I say? Wanli, the most fatuous emperor of Ming Dynasty. There is no ambiguity on the issue of foreign aggression. The aggression against the prince of Mongolia, in a word. For Japan's invasion of Korea; Emperor Wanli is also a word: fight. For the rising jurchen. Emperor Wanli still typed a word.
Judy, the Ming emperor, even proposed that the emperor should defend the country. Chongzhen, the king of national subjugation, also faithfully performed the duties of the emperor, preferring death to surrender and dying heroically. This is commendable. I don't need to say it in the Qing Dynasty. If you look at the modern history, you will know that from 1840 to the demise of the Qing Dynasty, you have been cutting land and paying reparations.
2: harem. There were two queens in the Qing Dynasty. A sourdrang dowager and a Empress Dowager Cixi. To tell the truth, these two queens are really not so good. Sourdrang dowager didn't have foresight and made many moves to influence Dourgen. But supporting Kangxi also contributed to the country. Empress Dowager Cixi said nothing. A traitor.
On the contrary, there were 1 queen, 1 queen and two queens in the harem of the Ming Dynasty, all of which were great. Empress An Renzong, Empress Xuanzong and Empress Taizong. Cixi is too great. It has long been discovered that Wang Zhen is a disaster for the country and the people. After four dynasties, the Empress Dowager pushed the Ming Dynasty to its peak. Shi Li, the biological mother of Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Wanli.
It was her and the big eunuch's strong support for Zhang that led to the emergence of Daming Zhongxing. Two queens. One is zhangyan, the empress of the Apocalypse Emperor. It was she who supported Emperor Chongzhen's accession to the throne and swept away Wei Zhongxian's anti-Party. One is Zhou Yufeng, Emperor Chongzhen and Empress. When the empire was tottering, he died with Emperor Chongzhen.
3. Science and medicine. Red cannons were first used in the Ming Dynasty. Wan Hu volcano is world-famous. Not bad in the early Qing dynasty, but not so good in the late Qing dynasty. Medicine, Compendium of Materia Medica by Li Shizhen. Geography Xu Xiake. 1 1. Shi Sheng. During Yongle period of Ming Dynasty, he came to Ren Xu 'an.
Kangxi flourished in the Qing Dynasty. Why don't I say "anti-dry prosperity"? Because there were many problems in Qianlong dynasty. Yongzheng is very good, very good. But Yongzheng's reform was still carried out under the feudal system. Here I want to talk about the economic problems mentioned in Article 9.
Why did Kangxi surpass his predecessors in the prosperous times? Kangxi's flourishing age adopted some advanced capitalist practices, which made Kangxi's flourishing age particularly prominent. But after Yongzheng, the Qing Dynasty returned to the policy of perfecting the feudal system.
