  4. Imperialist Conflicts: • Mexican-American War (U.S. uses border dispute to steal Mexican Cession) • Boer War (British vs. Boers vs. Zulus for South Africa) • Crimean War (Ottomans, British, French vs. Russia for Eastern Europe) • Spanish-American War (U.S. vs. Spain for Cuba, Philippines, Guam, and Puerto Rico) • Opium War (China vs. Britain over trade right’s in China) • Russo-Japanese War (Russia vs. Japan for Pacific domination) • Sino- Japanese War (Japan vs. China for Pacific control) • Great Game / Tournament of Shadows (Russia vs. Britain for Central Asian influence)

  5. Latin AmericanResistance: • Spanish colonies in the Americas rebelled for their independence in the early 1820s. • South America  Creole military leaders (Simon Bolivar and Jose de San Martin) use nationalism as a means of establishing constitutional rule. • In both cases, no major reforms for the lower classes (trade Peninsulares for Creole rule). • Due to a lack of self-rule in the past, caudillos emerge in both regions.

  6. Mexican Resistance: • 1808 – Napoleon names his brother Joseph as king of Spain • Mexican Viceroy uses it as an opportunity to declare sovereignty • However, peasants, led by Father Miguel Hidalgo and Jose Maria Moreles tried to revolt against the new leaders • In 1821, when Creole military leaders realized a new constitution would benefit them, they consolidated the resistance movement and declared independence • By 1823, Mexico was a Catholic Constitutional Republic

  7. Brazilian Resistance: • In 1807, with Napoleon’s army advancing on Portugal, King João IV fled to Brazil and established a new capital. • As a result, Brazil achieved an equal status with its motherland. • After 1815, when Napoleon was defeated, the king returned to Portugal, leaving his son in charge of Brazil. • Influenced by constitutionalist rebellion in Portugal and military pressure, Prince Pedro declared independence from Portugal in 1822. • After a very brief resistance from Portuguese forces, Brazilian independence was recognized with Dom Pedro I becoming emperor.

  8. Resistance: • Sepoy = Indian soldier paid by BEIC to serve as military in India • Forced to travel long-distances overseas • Forced to utilize new ammo cartridge encased in animal fat • Sepoy Rebellion in 1750s  Leads to direct Imperial Rule in India • “Jewel of the Crown” • Ram Mohan Roy  Hindu reformer who pushed for English education, social reform (no more sati, child marriages, or caste system), founded BrahmoSamaj, and extended freedoms for Indians (speech and press)

  9. Resistance: • Opium War led to economic Imperialism in China • Qing rulers not responsive to needs of poor • Hong Xiuquan leads Taiping Rebellion that lasts for a decade and leads to 20 million deaths • Finally suppressed by Qing when they enlist foreign militaries support

  10. Nationalist Revolt: • By 1900, China was carved up amongst Western “spheres of influence” • Chinese merchants lost out on profits due to competition • Righteous and Harmonious Fist openly rebel, driving out or killing all foreigners from Beijing • International army crushes rebellion, destroying the Qing Dynasty for all practical purposes • By 1912, China will undergo a Nationalist revolution, overthrowing the last Dynasty and establishing a republic under Sun Yat-Sen (not Communist)

  11. A Different Approach: • From 1868-1912, Japan underwent a series of reforms (Meiji Restoration) that revolutionized their political and social structure: • Emperor restored to power • Feudalism market economy • Rapid, state-sponsored Industrialization • Militarism (Conscription) • Removal of Samurai class

  12. Similar Responses: • Ottoman Empire: Tanzimat Reforms – In the 1840s-1850s the Ottomans implemented a series of reforms that brought modernization and westernization to their empire. • New Institutions  Banks, Schools, Ministries • Reorganization of Military (bye, bye Janissaries) • Secularization • Industrialization • Russia: Emancipated serfs, developed transportation infrastructure, agrarian reforms and resettlement plan, state-sponsored industrialization, military reorganization
