 * 1850-1864, Many outraged at the fact that their government was being ruled by [|Manchus], who were outsiders. This led to the [|Taiping rebellion], where they fought the government, and eventually lost. The Qing government defeated the Taipings with European aid and weapons.
 * In 1899, the group of people known as the [|Boxers] tries to rid china of any outsiders. They gained the support of [|empress Cixi] and they killed many foreigners, Chinese Christians, and anyone who had connections to outsiders.They were later stopped because of the support from the British, German, U.S., and Japanese troops who did not agree with this rebellion.
 * China wanted to use European aid to their benefit, whereas Japan simply wanted nothing to do with western influences
 * Japan went back into a more traditional way of life and insisted on [|self-containment] to preserve their unique culture, but China encouraged the influence and change and used it to thrive
