	The Manchus
		Manchu was the court language, spoken as well as written, for many years after 1644, and down to quite recent times all official documents were in duplicate, one copy in Chinese and one in Manchu; but a Manchu literature can hardly be said to exist, beyond translations of all the most important Chinese works.
		The Manchu soldiers were fighting for their all: their very supremacy was at stake; while many of the Chinese troops were members of the Triad Society, the chief object of which was to get rid of the alien dynasty.
		For the empire and everything in it is his; its mountains and rivers, its broad lands and public treasuries; you and all that you have, your family, males and females alike, from yourself to your youngest child, and your property, from your patrimonial estates to the bracelet on your infant's arm.

	Manchuria Summary
		South of the Stanovoy Mountains, the basin of the Amur and its tributaries belonged to the Manchu Empire.

		Manchus form a significant minority, and have been almost completely assimilated into the Han Chinese; the Manchu language is almost extinct, and many Han Chinese in Northeast China, as well as the rest of China, can claim some Manchu ancestry.

		The fact that they were barbarians who had been kept beyond the empire's north-east border, and were so weak numerically compared with the Han Chinese, must have made the fall of the Ming all the more humiliating to the Hans.

		In 1644 the Manchus took Beijing from the north and became masters of north China, establishing the last imperial dynasty, the Qing (1644-1911).
		Under Manchu rule the empire grew to include a larger area than before or since; Taiwan, the last outpost of anti-Manchu resistance, was also incorporated into China for the first time.
		The empire's inability to evaluate correctly the nature of the new challenge or to respond flexibly to it resulted in the demise of the Qing and the collapse of the entire millennia-old framework of dynastic rule.

	Joanna Waley-Cohen. Military Culture in Eighteenth-Century China
		The empire ruled from Beijing after 1760 was the most extensive in Chinese history, encompassing not only China itself, but also Mongolia, Tibet, Taiwan, Xinjiang (Chinese Turkestan), and the northeastern homelands of the Manchu ruling house of the Qing, whose rule over China lasted from 1644 to 1912.
		The 1760 addition of Xinjiang to the empire marked the culmination of the expansionist phase of the Qing empire, and was commemorated by the production of a series of maps of newly-conquered regions that were created in part with assistance from European Jesuit missionaries resident at the Qing court.
		Qianlong’s passionate attention to both the minutiae of military affairs and the larger picture of empire meant that during his reign, war and devotion to military power surpassed their practical role as the main means of imperial expansion to emerge as very metaphors for the Qing at its height.

	Historical Path of Mongolia's Statehood and Independence
		The Manchu state, that was established on the foundations of the Zurchid Empire, was gaining strength and at that time was considered to be the most dangerous enemy of the Mongolian state.
		To cite just a few, 18 years after Mongolia had voluntarily joined the Manchu empire, the "Khalkha Juram" law was drafted in 1709 (on the 28th day of mid-summer month of the year of Ox) and adopted at the meeting of all-Mongolian princes and ministers, headed by Tusheet khan.
		Thus, a powerful Asian empire called the Great Mongolia was born on the vast territory extending from the Great Khingan Mountains in the east to the Tenger (Tian Shan) mountains in the west, from the Sayan Mountains and Lake Baikal in the North to the Great Wall in the South.

	Qing Empire 1644-1799 by Sanderson Beck
		Just as the Chinese empire was ruled by the edicts of the emperor without a legislature, the local counties were under the jurisdiction of the magistrates, who acted as investigators, judges, and juries.
		In the late 1750s the Manchu bannerman Zhaohui led the Qing army in the conquest of extensive western territory that was named Xinjiang, meaning "new territories." When the cities of Kashgar and Yarkand were captured in 1759, many Dzungars were slaughtered.
		The Manchus allowed the Muslims to keep their religious traditions, and they did not have to shave their heads and wear a queue.

	International Campaign for Tibet: Tibet: Culture
		Good relations with the Tibetans were considered important by Mongol emperors, such as Kublai Khan, and Manchu emperors, especially K'ang-hsi and Ch'ien Lung, who considered the Tibetans the key to staying on the good side of the redoubtable Mongols.
		The Mongols and Manchus were different in this respect, and that is why the famous "priest-patron" relationship was only formed between Sakyapa Lamas and Mongol emperors in the thirteenth century, and between Gelukpa Dalai Lamas and Manchu emperors in the seventeenth century.
		The Manchu emperors were quite aware of the lack of common identity between Manchus, Mongols, Uighurs, Tibetans and Chinese, and so they tried to draw their legitimacy from their role as conqueror and mediator between these hereditary enemies.

	Tales of Old China
		The present extensive home of the Manchus is usually spoken of as the Three Eastern Provinces, namely, (1) Shêng-king, or Liao-tung, or Kuan-tung, (2) Kirin, and (3) Heilungchiang or Tsitsihar.
		In 1799, Ho-shên, a high Manchu official who had been raised by Ch`ien Lung from an obscure position to be a Minister of State and Grand Secretary, was suspected, probably without a shadow of evidence, of harbouring designs upon the throne.
		It was then that force of circumstances changed his status from that of a religious reformer to that of a political adventurer; and almost simultaneously with the advent of Hsien Fêng to the Imperial power, the long-smouldering discontent with Manchu rule, carefully fostered by the organization of the Triad society, broke into open rebellion.

	Taiwan belongs to Taiwanese
		As a result of the Manchu-led Empire’s expansion, the island of Taiwan was also bought within the fold of the new empire in 1683.
		Defeated militarily, the Empire, for example, lost Hong Kong to Great Britain in 1842, lost Outer Manchuria north of the Amur to Czarist Russia in 1858-60, and Taiwan was ceded to Imperial Japan in 1895.
		Ultimately when the Manchu Ching Dynasty fell in 1912, the bulk of what was left of the Manchu empire became a republic while both Outer Mongolia and Tibet declared independence.

	Tibet Environmental Watch - Geography
		When the Manchus invaded China and established the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) they established a new frontier policy regarding Tibet and especially, the mountainous borderland of western Kham and Amdo.
		Although surrounding local people and their daily lifeways were not controlled by the colonies, the system did act to lessen the chances of strong local chieftains establishing themselves as a threat to Chinaís border and economic activities.
		Manchu administrative hegemony in eastern Tibet linked these island of Chinese control to the courier route form Sichuan to Lhasa, itself established in the 18th Century.
