Answer:

On February 12, 1912, Hsian-T’ung, the last emperor of China

Step-by-step explanation:

On February 12, 1912, Hsian-T’ung, the last emperor of China, is forced to abdicate following Sun Yat-sen’s republican revolution. A provisional government was established in his place, ending 267 years of Manchu rule in China and 2,000 years of imperial rule. The former emperor, only six years old, was allowed to keep up his residence in Beijing’s Forbidden City, and he took the name of Henry Pu Yi.

Answer:

1644 to 1911 C.E.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Qing dynasty was created by Manchu invaders and ruled from 1644 to 1911 C.E. The Qing dynasty had a generally stable reign. However, during the 19th and 20th centuries, China became more at odds with Western powers. Puyi, the last of the Chinese emperors, abdicated in 1911 C.E. After then, China became a republic.

(Hope this helps!)
