What did the Taiping and Boxer Rebellion have in common?

The Taiping Rebellion (1850-1864) and the Boxer Rebellion (1899-1901) both arose in response to foreign influence and internal strife in China. Both movements sought to address grievances against Qing rule and the encroachment of Western powers, though they differed in ideology and methods; the Taiping Rebellion was driven by a radical Christian millenarian vision, while the Boxer Rebellion was rooted in anti-foreign and anti-Christian sentiment. Additionally, both rebellions resulted in significant violence and loss of life, highlighting the social and political turmoil of 19th-century China.
