Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Taiping Rebellion was primarily driven by opposition to opium smoking and foreign concessions, and their goal was to establish a fairer and more equal society through land reform. The Qing dynasty, which was heavily influenced by foreign powers and profited from the opium trade, eventually put down the rebellion. The Taipings did commit some atrocities, but their opposition to Christianity and human freedoms (such as foot binding) were not the primary reasons for the uprising or its suppression. And there is no evidence that they initiated a war with the Japanese.
