Ep. 211 - The Taiping Rebellion ft. Bobby Tamburro

This week we are rejoined by friend of the show and rising star of east coast comedy Bobby Tamburro to discuss a the mid 19th century Taiping rebel uprising. The brutal conflict was sparked by a religious movement congregated around a western influenced educator who decided he was the brother of Jesus Christ and would lead a holy revolution against the Qing Dynasty and purge the country of China from its minority ethnic rulers. The Western powers both arguably had a hand in the genesis of this movement as well as a hand in its downfall and all told between 20 and 30 million Chinese perished.
