Ah yes, the Taiping Rebellion. Also known as my favorite historical schizo post.

[islandiareykajik]

This is why asian parents are so obsessed with their kid`s success.
No one, wants another Taiping Rebelion.

[vibechecker]

Europeans: Hooray! A Christian China!
Hong Xiuquan: Yeah I’m the brother of Christ!
Europeans: *record scratch* say what now

[FarscapeSDC]

Chinese history be like:

"I failed my government entrance exam." - *100 million civilians perish*.

[nathanseper]

Hong Xiuquan: I failed my entrance exam, so I tried world domination.
Some Austrian Dude: We've all been there, buddy.

[sampark]

The Qing has fallen, millions must worship the brother of Jesus Christ

[Ultravenom]

Its so interesting that Hong had his own Judas, but he killed him.

[CliffCardi]

To think none of this ever would’ve happened if they just let Hong Xiquan pass his exams. Reminds me of another guy who ended up killing millions because he was rejected from School.

[socialistrepublicofvietnam]

The most unrealistic part of this is that his Asian parents actually supported his alternate career paths even after he failed a major exam

[gamelirian]

"The East has fallen, MILLIONS MUST PRAISE THE LORD!"

[supercat]

I’m impressed at how many Chinese always die in a conflict but still stay the most populous nation in the world.

[notani]

I felt like every person who failed the imperial exam either being forgotten or ended up leading a rebellion.

[casteddu]

Chinese Guy:
> Fails test
> Starts bloodiest conflict in the history of mankind, so far


Austrian guy:

[NosferatuandFriends]

You: "My brother in Christ"
Me, a Chinese intellectual: "My brother is Christ"
✝✝✝

[willimberg]

Crazy how much influence one person can have ✝️

[michaelthayer]

A little cheeky having Hong's older brother holding the Lance of Longinus, you could poke an eye out with that thing.

[Azraeltheangelofdeath]

I like the fact that Shi Dakai is the only one of the generals to actually have more than two brains cells to point out infighting is detrimental when they're in the middle of a war with an enemy garrison is camped outside your capital

[teeby]

average chinese conflict be like “minor rebellion, 45 trillion dead. half canibalized”

[ApostleOfDarkness]

You have realise that Sun Yat Sen is also a Hakka and was inspired by the stories of the Taiping Rebellion when he was growing up
