## Bio

Minning became the seventh emperor of the Qing dynasty and the sixth to rule over China proper in 1782, taking the throne as the Daoguang Emperor. His three decades in power unfolded as what one historian called "external disaster and internal rebellion" — a cascade he seemed unable to stem. He favored officials who spoke in purist platitudes over those who grappled with the crises actually bearing down: foreign powers pressing at the gates, rebellion stirring in the countryside. The First Opium War cracked open China's doors by force, and before his death in 1850 the Taiping Rebellion had begun its bloody march. Historian Jonathan Spence's verdict: "a well meaning but ineffective man" presiding over the beginning of the end.
