They were known as Yihequan or Boxers.

<em>The Righteous and Harmonious Fists</em> was a name foreigners gave to Chinese secret society that precised certain boxing and calisthenic rituals. They were well trained athletes, their primary practice was a type of spiritual possession which they thought made them invulnerable. They were armed with swords and rifles, and they believed that millions of soldiers of Heaven would descend to assist them in order to purify China from the influx of foreigners.

The Boxer Rebellion was an anti-foreign and anti-Christian upraising that took place in China between 1899 and 1901.

The name Boxers was given to them by American Christian missionaries because of the martial arts and weapons training they practiced.

In what ways can minor parties impact elections in this country?
Trava [24]
<span>China considers itself socialistic, but it is nowhere near that. Socialism is defined as all markets are owned and controlled by the state. In the past that was true as 100% of the businesses were state run. Now it is less then 30% and more and more of that is handed over to private enterprise. China has a country wide free market system. Anyone can participate in it, including myself.. keep it spongy.</span>
