China's past has had a humiliating history that has dealt a profound blow to China, and the heavy pain is still unforgettable even now that China has developed and become strong. Before China was invaded by Japan, it was already invaded by the Western powers on many occasions, including the two Opium Wars, the Sino-Japanese War, the Eight-Power Alliance's war of aggression against China, and so on; the eight-power alliance's invasion of China caused heavy losses to China, and the Eight-Power Alliance brutalized the lives of Chinese people, plundered China's precious property, occupied China's territory, and even to this day there are still many treasures left to other countries.
In June 1900, Britain, France, the United States, Germany, Italy, austria-Hungary, Japan, and Tsarist Russia jointly set off a frenzy to divide China, under the pretext of China's suppression of the Boxer Rebellion as the trigger for aggression against China. Burning and looting is no evil, plundering property in the city of Beijing, destroying Chinese cultural relics, and burning the Yuanmingyuan are the crimes committed by the Eight-Power Alliance in China. Coercing the Qing government into signing the Treaty of Xinugu, which not only demanded reparations but also divided China's territory. Although a hundred years have passed, and China can no longer speak the same day, we must not forget history, and today we will take a look at what the situation of the Eight-Power Alliance, which once committed heinous crimes against China and flaunted its might.
Britain at that time can be said to be one of the most powerful countries, the first to complete the industrial revolution, into the ranks of capitalist countries britain has always been known as the sun never sets empire, but after World War II, the united states status and strength of the rapid improvement, britain's international status declined, and now the military and economic strength is no longer at the top. France did not want to forge ahead after dividing up China, and at that time it was also fiercely suppressed twice by the German army in World War II, and although its military strength was still there, it was not as strong as before. But people's perfumes, wines, luxury goods are still desirable to many people, after all, France is now known for romance.
Germany's military strength during the Second World War was indeed good, and it also gave him the courage to launch a world war, but the defeat of the Second World War also caused Germany a great injury, although the Germans are pragmatic, Germany is also committed to various developments, but it is no longer as arrogant as it once was. As one of Germany's allies in World War II, Japan has long been less ambitious, but it has also been developing steadily. Italy, one of the fascist national alliances, did not seriously fight in World War II, and although it was not good at fighting, it came first in eating and drinking. At present, the development of Europe is sluggish, and the development of Italy is also full of difficulties.
Among the eight countries, the best development is undoubtedly the United States, a world economic power, a military power, after the end of World War II, the world pattern has also changed, the United States can be said to have been in a hegemonic position. Russia was once also a big brother, after World War II, the Soviet Union and the United States can be said to be equally divided, but in the end the collapse of the Soviet Union, but also created a situation of superpowers and strengths, although the current successor Russia is strong and powerful, but it is still suppressed by the United States. After the First World War, the defeated Austro-Hungarian Empire was directly destroyed, and the four countries of Austria, Hungary, the Czech Republic and Snovark were now split from austria-Hungary.
