Why do many people blame the backwardness of modern China on the Qing Dynasty?

Because the defeat of modern China is, in the final analysis, the defeat of agricultural civilization over industrial civilization. In modern times, if China wants to catch up with the pace of the world and want to become strong, the only way is to industrialization and modernization, and there is no other way.

However, some people just don't want to admit this fact, they always feel that China has been strong for 5,000 years, how can it start to lag behind in the last 100 years?

Moreover, it is reasonable to say that China has been ahead of the world for thousands of years, and it should have been China's first entry into industrial civilization, but this is not the case. So they think there must be something very special about this, otherwise it wouldn't be like this, it would never be like this.

As a result, their conceited and inferior national feelings began to faintly ache again, trying to find an opportunity to take back a city.

Unfortunately, they only have a diode-mounted brain, have a limited IQ, and are very extreme. All they can do is a simple and crude logic, which is to put the pot on a person's head.

To whom is it buttoned? Whoever is closest to the modern dynasty will be put on his head.

Obviously, it was the Qing Dynasty.

As a result, the Qing Dynasty thus became the biggest back-and-forth man in modern China.

What's more, the Qing Dynasty was still a regime established by ethnic minorities. In the fiery eyes of their Han chauvinism, the minority nationalities that have entered the Central Plains are almost the original sin, and the minority nationalities should not establish political power, they should not create great unification, and the Han nationality will always be the first in the world. So they seem to have finally found the reason for China's backwardness in modern times, that is, the minority community is in power. If the Han Chinese were in power, it would certainly be an industrial revolution, occupying overseas colonies, and then hanging the four sides.

But in fact, China is not 5,000 years ahead of the world, at least in the four ancient civilizations can only be the last. Moreover, ancient China was not leading in the field of natural sciences, at best, it was a summary of the experience of daily production and life, often a flash of inspiration, and it was still too far from being highly theorized. For example, in the 17th century, Xu Guangqi saw that the "Geometric Primitives" felt like a treasure, but he did not know that this was the result of Euclid's research in 300 BC.

Moreover, although the Qing Dynasty was a minority regime, after entering the customs, it basically completely inherited the political and economic development model of China's agricultural civilization and pushed it to the extreme. It can be said that the Qing Dynasty was the peak of the development of China's agricultural civilization. If in the Qing Dynasty, agricultural civilization could not defeat industrial civilization, it cannot be said that the Qing Dynasty could not do it, but only that agricultural civilization could not do it. Even if a Han regime were to take charge of China, as long as it continued the development model of agricultural civilization, it would certainly not work.

Moreover, the Qing Dynasty, which was inhabited by ethnic minorities, was actually closer to modernization than all the dynasties established by the Han Chinese, including the Ming Dynasty. In the middle of the Qing Dynasty, the textile and silk weaving workshops in the Jiangnan region rose up economically, and the commercialization of agricultural products steadily advanced; in terms of trade, China was involved in international trade and became a trade center around the Pacific, and a large amount of silver flowed into China; ideologically and culturally, the Qianjia school sorted out and summed up traditional Chinese culture through a large number of work of identifying forgeries, compiling, and proofreading, and tried to seek breakthroughs from within traditional culture, thus moving toward ideological humanization and secularization, such as Dai Zhen's counterattack against Zhu Xi's theory of science, and so on; and from the perspective of the orientation of the entire grass-roots society , also showing the characteristics of secularization. Therefore, some people say that if the Ming Dynasty continues, it will be able to carry out an industrial revolution, which is nonsense.

But the problem is, it is useless for you to talk to those Mingfu, Huang han, and diodes now, they will just turn a deaf ear and then talk to themselves, anesthetize themselves, and deceive others.
