I find it odd that the most populous country on earth has such a lack of differing opinions on the Internet (I am aware it's banned in China, but from what I understand alot of people can bypass government censorship with VPNs). Especially considering there has been a considerable revival of interest in the Qing Dynasty by Chinese in more recent years. Even stranger is that there's zero monarchist group operating in Taiwan, which both is a democracy and has internet access.<br /><br />There is a chance that when/if the CCP loses it's power we could see a repeat of what happened in Spain after Franco died, but that's looking quite unlikely after reading this.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01822034151397844730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8783969302315257415.post-53125868601298278392014-09-02T17:57:36.286-05:002014-09-02T17:57:36.286-05:00We've seen the "Ji Yao Sui Show" (ak...We've seen the "Ji Yao Sui Show" (aka Lester Y.K.

Socialism is much more the rage these days. However, the Communist Chinese (and they call it communism though it isn't just as it isn't capitalism really either) and so many others have simply discovered what the Romans learned thousands of years ago. As long as the people can eat and have TV and their little toys you can rule them with an iron fist and they don't really care.MadMonarchisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08083008336883267870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8783969302315257415.post-78450369707260567832011-02-13T23:00:59.456-06:002011-02-13T23:00:59.456-06:00Like you had mentioned earlier, interestingly all ...Like you had mentioned earlier, interestingly all chinese monarchist group are located outside china (both prc and Taiwan). Most of them are in Malaysia, who in turn is also a Monarchy, in my opinion hitherto prc government is still relatively hostile toward monarchism.<br />Until a couple months ago I encountered a Chinese blog from within prc that openly celebrated the ideas of the late Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty; although the creator had explicitly stated that she has no direct intention to restore the monarchy in china, alas now that blog is already disappeared. Memoirs of palaces, was the name of the blog if I am not mistaken.<br />I think, however most of Chinese people residing in prc or in Taiwan simply don’t care about the government of their country, either that is a republican or a monarchical one; just like the rest of the world.<br />Money and the accumulation of wealth is the only thing that filled the mind of present capitalistic, secularistic, hedonistic civilization.TANAKA8120https://www.blogger.com/profile/08169056478150976834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8783969302315257415.post-50211951009560138442011-01-12T12:57:05.465-06:002011-01-12T12:57:05.465-06:00I assume that was the line of Prince Joachim of Pr...I assume that was the line of Prince Joachim of Prussia? I always thought that was an interesting idea -but interesting in an odd sort of way. Ireland was then in rebellion against a "German" foreign Protestant royal family so it would seem a little bit of a leap to think the country would accept another German foreign Protestant royal as king, simply on the grounds that he was not British. Just a case of taking the "other" side I suppose. If the United Irishmen had met with more success there may have later been similar talk of doing the same with a Bonaparte perhaps.MadMonarchisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08083008336883267870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8783969302315257415.post-49416886690803670802011-01-12T12:09:32.039-06:002011-01-12T12:09:32.039-06:00a note on people claiming descend from the tang dy...a note on people claiming descend from the tang dynasty, chinese people keep detailed records of geneaologies, and being of descent from an important family is really no big deal in china, just read "Ancestors: 900 Years in the Life of a Chinese Family", by Frank Ching, who details his ancestors who served in various important positions throughout the past 900 years. <br /><br />many chinese may be descended from formal royal families since kings had thousands of concubines, and many families have ruled china,and they really wouldn't care about i<br /><br />official rules of succesion do not matter, there are many more descendants of the aisin gioro family like Aisin Gioro Yuhuan, passed away in 2003, has three sons, and his great great grandfather was the Daoguang emperor<br /><br />Qigong was another member of aisin gioro who passed away in 2005. both of them are succesful artists <br /><br />puyi might not be popular in China do to perceived weakness in his public image, he never was much of a public speaker and was associated with the japanese, there are tons of other descendants of aisin gioro who have succesfully achieved fame in their own right like the two artists mentioned above.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8783969302315257415.post-27875464074327302072011-01-12T08:32:56.635-06:002011-01-12T08:32:56.635-06:00That is one unholy mess of a situation, one would ...That is one unholy mess of a situation, one would assume for a nation of a billion people there would be a wider variety of opinion and at least some serious attempts at Restoration societies. Your strife with the Chinese pretender from Hawaii reminds me of when I was contacted by a relatively new Irish Nationalist Monarchist who 'tracked down' the legitimate heir to the Irish 'Throne' via the Half hearted German promise during world war one to give the Irish a German Prince should the Easter rising succeed with German help, (a mess), and such a pretender was none other then Grand Duke George Mikhailovich of Russia, of House Romanov-Hohenzollern. While I would very much like such a strong link to Both Illustriust houses, I had to inform him this claim was decidedly ludicrous.<br /><br />Ah to be a Young Monarchist experimenting with genealogy again.
