Descrizione Panthay Rebellion
High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Panthay Rebellion (1856-1873), known in Chinese as the Du Wenxiu Rebellion was a separatist movement of the Hui people and Chinese Muslims against the imperial Qing Dynasty in southwestern Yunnan Province, China, as part of a wave of Hui-led multi-ethnic unrest. The name 'Panthay' is a Burmese word, which is said to be identical with the Shan word Pang hse. It was the name by which the Burmese called the Chinese Muslims who came with caravans to Burma from the Chinese province of Yunnan. The name was not used or known in Yunnan itself. The discrimination with which the Hui were treated by the imperial administration was the cause of their rebellions.Template:Atwill, David G. The Chinese Sultanate: Islam, Ethnicity and the Panthay Rebellion in Southwest China, 1856-1873 Some suggest that the Panthay Rebellion originated solely as a conflict between Han and Muslim miners in 1853, but Han-Hui tensions existed for decades prior to that including a three-day massacre of Hui by Han and Qing officials in 1845.
