		The Boxer Rebellion of 1899-1900 is tied into a complex system of conflicts between China and the outer world, between the central government and the regions and between peasants and elite.
		All of these conflicts interacted with each other, even though, when the Boxer Rebellion started in Shandong it was first and foremost a movement against foreigners and foreign influence in China, and especially against the presence of missionaries associated with the different Christian denominations.
		While in the late 1850s missionaries were rather free in their activities inside China, conflicts arose in Shandong when in 1897 two missionaries were killed and the German government in turn took this as an excuse to occupy the Kiaochow bay in order to build up a city there.
