Question: How did the Chinese interpret their divine power?

Answer: The Chinese interpreted their divine power by believing that their power was something temporary and they would base this on signs. The Chinese would look for signs that could indicate that the dynasty had lost heavens mandate.  Sometimes these signs were very common events that could easily be interpreted as exaggeration.

Explanation: The Mandate of Heaven, also known as ''Tian Ming'', is a Chinese political and religious doctrine and it is used since ancient times. It justifies the rule of the King or Emperor of China and it is similar to the European's concept of the divine right of kings. Their concept of divine power had many different interpretations. Some were very extreme, for example: If a ruler was overthrown, it was interpreted as a sign from above that the ruler was unworthy to mandate. Also, if a natural disaster such as famine and flood were to occur, it was very common to believe that these were signs of heaven's displeasure with the King or Emperor.

What is one way the colonist rebelled against british economic politics
Mademuasel [1]
<span>Many Americans viewed all of this as a blatant abuse of power by the British government. Once again a call went out for a colonial congress to sort out a response. On September 5, 1774 delegates appointed by the colonies met in Philadelphia for the First Continental Congress. Drawing upon the successful manner in which previous acts had been overturned the first thing Congress did was to organize a comprehensive embargo of trade with Britain. It then conveyed to the British government a list of grievances that demanded the repeal of thirteen acts of Parliament. All of the acts listed had been passed after 1763 as the delegates had agreed not to question British policies made prior to the conclusion of the Seven Years War. Despite all the problems it had created, the Tea Act was not on the list. The reason for this was that Congress decided not to protest British regulation of colonial trade under the Navigation Acts. In short, the delegates were saying to Parliament take us back to 1763 and all will be well.
