The weak eat the strong, and if they are backward, they will be beaten.

Six words: If you fall behind, you will be beaten.
If a country is backward, in the modern capitalist era, it will inevitably be beaten, and the beating here is, of course, the military attack of the advanced countries, for example, Iraq will be beaten by the United States. So, what happens after you get beaten? The people will revolt.
Will the revolt be victorious? Not necessarily, it depends on the human factor, if the human factor is not good, they will be beaten in vain, or even exterminated, just like the Indians. And if the human factor is okay, then the resistance can be successful, such as the great victory of the Chinese people's war of resistance against Japan and the great victory of the Vietnamese people's war against the United States.
Therefore, to write the above change process as a phased process, it is:
In the first stage, one country is lagging behind and not as advanced as the other.
In the second stage, backward countries are beaten by advanced countries.
In the third stage, the people of the backward countries rose up to revolt.
Stage 4, the resistance is either victory or defeat, and the human factor comes first.
Call the above process the four-step process of "falling behind, being beaten, resisting, and winning". This is a portrayal of China's modern history.

Reading "The Destruction of the Old Summer Palace" has a feeling.
Today, I read the article "The Destruction of the Old Summer Palace" with great excitement.
The Destruction of the Old Summer Palace" mainly describes the glorious landscape of the Old Summer Palace and its destruction, exposes the barbaric crimes of imperialism, and expresses the author's love for the culture of the motherland and his hatred for the invaders.
After reading the article, I learned that the Old Summer Palace is the general name of the three gardens of Yuanming, Wanchun and Changchun. It was built in 1709 and took 150 years to complete. The Qing Dynasty poured the material resources of the whole country, gathered countless fine craftsmen, filled the lakes and mountains, planted strange flowers and trees, collected 40 scenic spots at home and abroad, built 145 large buildings, and collected countless art treasures and books and cultural relics.
In these buildings, in addition to the courtyard with Chinese style, there are also Western-style buildings such as Haiyan Hall and Yuanying Temple in Changchun Garden, which is known as the "Garden of Ten Thousand Gardens". In 1900, the Eight-Nation Coalition invaded Beijing, burned and plundered, and the Empress Dowager Cixi fled to Xi'an with Emperor Guangxu. Subsequently, the relics of the Old Summer Palace were seized by bureaucrats, warlords, and profiteers for a long time, and even destroyed in an organized manner by the authorities.
The magnates of Beiyang**, including some of those who are responsible for the protection of the ruins of the Old Summer Palace, all rely on their power and have taken away stone carvings and Taihu stones from the Old Summer Palace to repair their garden houses. The invaders not only robbed the precious historical artifact, but also ruthlessly reduced it to ashes.
I really feel sorry for this fairyland, ingenious, colorful, and beautiful garden! In order not to repeat this humiliating history, we should study hard, work hard, learn all kinds of skills, and follow the "Shenzhou 5" to develop and launch more rockets as a reserve force, so as to make our country stronger!
Our country will not be invaded, and our people will no longer be insulted!
Xinhai Revolution, Westernization Movement, Unequal Treaty, Liberation War.
In China's modern history, imperialist countries, large and small, vied with each other to invade us, China was forced to sign hundreds of unequal treaties, and the Chinese people were defeated again and again in the wars of aggression of the West. In 1840, in order to open the door to China, Britain brazenly launched the Opium War, the ancient and backward China was defeated in the face of the West's strong ships and artillery, and in 1842 signed the first unequal treaty in modern Chinese history - the "Treaty of Nanjing", and then signed the Sino-British "Five Ports Trade Charter", the Sino-British "Humen Treaty", the Sino-US "Wangxia Treaty", the Sino-French "Whampoa Treaty" and other first unequal treaties in modern Chinese history, forced to cede land, pay indemnities, open treaty ports, and foreign customs agreementsForeign countries have obtained consular jurisdiction in China and privileges such as missionary work in treaty ports. These treaties brought barbarism and humiliation to the Chinese people. >>>More
