The Boxer Rebellion, also known as the Boxer Uprising, the Boxer Movement, the Yihetuan Movement or the Boxer War, was an anti-foreign, anti-imperialist and anti-Christian uprising in North China between 1899 and 1901, near the end of the Qing dynasty, carried out by the Society of Righteous and Harmonious Fists. The uprising spread across North China and culminated in the summer of 1900, when Boxer fighters besieged the foreign legations in Beijing, prompting an international coalition of eight nations to intervene militarily; the rebellion was suppressed and ended with the Boxer Protocol of 7 September 1901, which imposed indemnities and other concessions on the Qing government.
