== The Taipings took their beliefs from many different sources. Some of these beliefs reflected traditional Confucianism and some were from ancient writings that described ideal systems that had never been practiced. Other ideas were Western in origin. Clearly this blend of ideas was very powerful. Because they introduced ideas never discussed before, the Taipings could promise their followers a totally new system. == == Their revolutionary program was very wide-ranging. It introduced notions of common property, land reform, equal position of women, abstinence from opium, tobacco and alcohol, calendar reform, literary reform, and above all, a new political-military organization of society. == ||  || <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 26px;">Go to either of these main web site links to begin. <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 200%;">Then, look up a second source of your own using GOOGLE and the key words: <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 200%;"> **Biography + the person's name** <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 200%;">//[|PBS The West]// <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 200%;">//[|The Donner Party!!

 * || == No other event devastated China as much in the 19th century as the Taiping (pronounced tie-ping) Rebellion (1850-64). It was sparked by the leadership of one man, Hong Xiuquan (pronounced shiou-chuan), from the south of China, who in 1847 failed the imperial examinations for the third time and was delirious for 30 days. When he recovered, he believed that he and his band of believers had been chosen to conquer China, destroy the demon Manchu rulers, and establish the Taiping Tianguo — the Heavenly Kingdom of Great Harmony. Gathering followers first from the poor and outcast, he and his recruits gradually built up an army and political organization that swept across China. They made their way to central China and by the late 1850s controlled over a third of the country. Their movement was so strong and so popular that it took the central government millions of dollars and fifteen years to defeat them. Not until 1864 was the rebellion brutally put down. It is estimated that the entire rebellion cost more than twenty million lives (twice that of World War I). Even by the 1950s, some parts of central China had not yet fully recovered from the destruction of the Taiping era. == ||  ||
