The Qing Dynasty, also known as the Manchu Dynasty, ruled over China from 1644 to 1912. It was the last imperial dynasty of China. The dynasty was founded by the Manchus, a nomadic people from Manchuria who conquered China during the Ming–Qing transition. The Qing Dynasty was a period of great change and upheaval in Chinese history, and it saw the introduction of many new ideas and technologies to China. One of the most significant changes during the Qing Dynasty was the adoption of Confucianism as the official state philosophy. This had a profound impact on Chinese society and culture, and it helped to shape the development of China for centuries to come.
