Pericles had<span> such a profound influence on Athenian </span>society that Thucydides<span>, a contemporary historian, </span>acclaimed<span> him as "the first citizen of Athens". </span><span>Pericles turned the </span>Delian League<span> into an Athenian Empire and led his countrymen during the first two years of the Peloponnesian War. The period during which he led Athens, roughly from 461 to 429 BC, is sometimes known as the "</span>Age of Pericles<span>", though the period thus denoted can include times as early as the </span>Persian Wars<span>, or as late as the next century. Pericles promoted the arts and literature; it is principally through his efforts that Athens holds the reputation of being the educational and cultural center of the </span>ancient Greek<span> world. He started an ambitious project that generated most of the surviving structures on the </span>Acropolis<span> (including the </span>Parthenon). This project beautified and protected the city, exhibited its glory, and gave work to the people.<span>Pericles also fostered </span>Athenian democracy<span> to such an extent that critics call him a </span>populist.

Answer:
The Eight-Power Allied War of Aggression against China (Siege of the International Legations) refers to the war of armed aggression against China on May 28, 1900 (Guangxu 26, Qing Dynasty), led by eight major countries, including Britain, Russia, Japan, France, Italy, the United States, Germany and Austria.
In the spring of 1900, the Boxer Rebellion movement became the trigger for the war of invasion of China by the Eight Allied Powers, who used the suppression of the Boxer Rebellion as a pretext to divide and plunder China. On August 4, the Allied forces set out from Tianjin and captured strategic locations such as Beicang, Yangcun, Hexiwu, and Tongzhou. 14, they captured Beijing, and then looted the city for 3 days and occupied Beijing by divisions. After that, they continued to increase their troops and attacked from Beijing and Tianjin in all directions, controlling the major passes around Beijing and Tianjin from south to Zhengding, north to Zhangjiakou, east to Shanhaiguan and west to Nyangziguan. On August 17, it was decided that German Field Marshal Waldsee would be the commander-in-chief of the allied forces, and on October 17, Waldsee entered the capital and set up the general headquarters in the Forbidden City and the military colonial body "Beijing Management Committee" in the Yamen of the Li Fan Yuan.
On September 7, 1901, China was completely reduced to a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society as a result of the signing of the Treaty of Xin Chou, which brought unprecedented and painful disasters to the country and its people.
