What bad habits were abolished from the Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China? ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

After the Revolution of 1911, in order to change the ignorant and backward customs, the government of the Republic of China promulgated a series of decrees, including three aspects:

1, ancient costumes forced men to cut off their braids, and women stopped foot binding and replaced old clothes with new ones;

2. Abolish the demeaning bow ceremony and replace it with civilized and simple bow and handshake ceremony;

3. In terms of appellation, the appellations such as "grandfather" and "adult" were cancelled and replaced by equal appellations such as "Mr." and "Mr.".

The top-down reform and the failure of the Boxer Rebellion convinced many people in China that the only effective way is to abolish the old system and establish a new one through thorough revolution. Sun Yat-sen, the leader of this revolution, an anti-Qing pacifist, began to attract attention among overseas Chinese and students, especially Japanese students. 1905, Sun Yat-sen and Huang Xing, another revolutionary leader in China, established an alliance in Tokyo.

Some local warlords in China, reformists in exile after the Reform Movement of 1898 and overseas Chinese gave a lot of financial support to this movement. Sun Yat-sen's political ideas were formed in 1897, first published in Tokyo in 1905, and revised in the early 1920s. His theory focuses on the "Three People's Principles": nationality, civil rights and people's livelihood. Nationalism calls on the people to overthrow the Manchu rule and end foreign hegemony in China; Civil rights expressed Sun Yat-sen's ideal of establishing a government by universal suffrage. People's livelihood, usually described as socialism, refers to helping the people by standardizing the ownership of the mode of production.
