Hong Rengan is working on planning the modern government structure of the future of the Taiping government apparatus. He follows the pattern of the contemporary Chinese state to show order and continuity, to give confidence to the people they'd have to be governing.

In the present look at Hong Rengan in the Taiping hierarchy, we are looking at some of the foreigners who drifted over to the Taiping side. This episode focuses on eccentric loose cannon missionary Issachar Roberts.
In this episode, we see an example of how the Taiping were a little "too Chinese" to make a successful revolution: they focused too much on maintaining the appearance of being a traditional Chinese dynasty to fully digest useful foreign ideas, science, and technology.

We further look at how foreigners influence what China does, but ultimately the permanent changes are decided by Chinese people in China. Hong Rengan was the highest level Taiping figure who had deep familiarity with foreign cultures, but his power base...

Foreign powers readily turned to force to push things along in China whenever dialogue got stuck. Force had worked before, and they thought force was the only language that the Chinese consistently understood.

First Preaching Journey to Guangxi
After they started getting some opposition at home, Hong Xiuquan and friends decided to go west to Guangxi, a very rural, very rugged, very underdeveloped area of China.

This week, we talk about the Opium War and cracking China open for revolution. We won't go into great detail about the war itself, but we'll look at how it made things possible for revolution in China.
Our narrative relies for just one more episode on Imperial Twilight by Stephen Platt.
Actually Doing the Crackdown
Even though Charles Elliot promised to turn 20,000 chests of opium over to the Chinese government, it's not because he was overawed by imperial authority. As the panic of being blockaded in the Canton foreign s...

In today's episode, we look at exactly the inciting incident for the Opium War. The British official on the scene, Charles Elliot, wanted to protect British subjects but also keep good relations between Chinese and British subjects. Chinese officials in Canton wanted to avoid direct conflict, but Beijing wanted to suppress the opium trade.
Increasing Measures Taken Against Foreigners
In December 1838, Chinese soldiers built a public execution site in view of the places where the foreigners lived in the foreign settlement of Canton. Foreigners, offended at the sight, started...

In this episode, we look a bit more at the work that Protestant missionaries are trying to do and why they spend so much time trying to learn the language and culture. We look at how this paved the way for the Taiping Rebellion to emerge.
What Missionaries Try to Do
Protestant missionary work in China started with translating the Bible into Chinese. The critical work went into things like determining exactly what to call God, how to express ethical teachings, and how to address the culture without totally condemning everything.

2022-05-031h 03Chinese Revolutions: A History PodcastS01E09 Protestant Missionaries 1 of 2Protestant Missionaries Going to China, 1 of 2
In this episode, we look at one of the key parties playing a part in the Taiping Rebellion: foreign Protestant Christian missionaries. Christianity is a universal faith (it means you too!) with a message revolutionary in magnitude. Though it isn't the main player, it's a critical background player.
Quick Rundown of Church History
Christianity was founded by Christ. All of the ancient churches (Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, etc.) share formal liturgy, a literary/literate core and a complementary oral culture, and a formal hierarchy.

In this episode, we look at how Chinese scholars examined trade with foreign countries, prior to the First Opium War (1839-1842).
Chinese academia was extremely sophisticated, but it was aimed toward passing exams for the traditional Confucian civil service in China.
Bao Shichen (1775-1855)
One of the key scholars examining foreign trade was Bao Shichen, from Anhui province. He passed the provincial level exams, but he never passed the national-level exams. He turned his attention to "statecraft" studies, including subjects like agriculture and military studies.

In this episode, we look at the opium trade into China. It's drug trade, pure and simple. How one of the first multinational corporations was bound up in it partly led to the First Opium War.
This episode draws heavily from Imperial Twilight by Stephen Platt.
Origins of East India Company Involvement
Occupying India drained EIC finances, and the China trade was the last profitable part of EIC operations. The opium trade was too illegal for them to engage in directly, but they got in on the supply side.

What the British Brought
The British brought an array of scientific and military technology to show off their advances to try to impress the Chinese. They sent their cutting edge stuff: a huge mechanical planetarium, modern guns, luxury carriages for the Chinese emperor, hot-air balloon demonstration, and more.

The short answer: the East India Company and trade with the East vital to British national security.
Founding of the East India Company and Monopoly
