In the history of the Qing Dynasty, there was a very famous Kangqian prosperous era, at this time China's strength was strong, in Asia is a well-deserved power, the surrounding Fan state small countries, basically have to look at China's face and act. Having said that, during the Qianlong period, not all ordinary people were able to live a good life, and many even left their hometowns to make a living and went to other countries. One of the most famous figures, his name was Luo Fangbo, born in 1738 AD. When he was young, he was also a reader, and he once participated in the imperial examination, but he did not get a meritorious name. Later, in order to earn a living and get rid of poverty, Luo Fangbo left China with hundreds of relatives and friends, and they crossed the ocean to Borneo, Indonesia.
After Luo Fangbo arrived in Borneo, he found that the local Chinese were living quite miserable, not only did they not make money, but they lived on the streets, and they could not even guarantee their own three meals a day. In order to change this situation, Luo Fangbo came forward to set up a gold mining company, and then actively united the local Chinese. With the passage of time, he led the Chinese to live a good life, and even the local natives admired him very much.
After Luo Fangbo led everyone to earn money, it quickly attracted the covetousness of bandits and pirates. He knew he couldn't compromise with these bullies, so he set up an army and led everyone to repel the pirates and protect his interests. At the time of quelling the bandits, Luo Fangbo's fame grew, and many people took the initiative to join him, hoping to get shelter, and eventually developed to a scale of 200,000.
In 1777, Luo Fangbo, with the support of everyone, established the first Chinese republic overseas, which was equivalent to 20 times the size of Taiwan. What is the current state of the country? After Luo Fangbo established the state, he sent people back to the motherland, hoping to submit to the Qianlong Emperor, and assigned all his territory to the name of the Qing government. Unfortunately, the Qianlong Emperor did not accede to the request of Luo Fangbo and others, who he considered to be "outcasts of the Heavenly Dynasty" and were not eligible to return. Later, the republic established by Luo Fangbo was invaded by the Dutch, and although they fought for a long time, they did not win the victory, and were eventually annexed by the invaders and completely destroyed. Today, the republic established by Lo Fang Bo has been jointly divided between Indonesia, Brunei and Malaysia.
