III. Evaluation of the Xinhai Revolution: Nature: The Xinhai Revolution was a great bourgeois-democratic revolution in Chinese history

Progressive: The Xinhai Revolution overthrew the reactionary rule of the Qing Dynasty and proclaimed the end of more than two thousand years of absolute monarchy. It has created a modern national democratic revolution in the full sense, greatly promoted the ideological emancipation of the Chinese nation, and opened the floodgates of China's progressive trend.

Limitations: The task of anti-imperialism and anti-feudalism has not been completely completed, and the nature of semi-colonial and semi-feudal society has not been changed.

Lesson: The road to a bourgeois republic is not feasible in China.
