The Boxer Uprising was an anti-imperialist armed struggle waged by North China peasants in 1900, led by the Yihetuan, (literally “Society of Righteous and Harmonious Fists”). The Quanjiao (Fist Society) was an important component of the Yihetuan throughout the uprising, having its origin in popular secret religious societies during the period of the Qianlong and Jiaqing reigns. The activities of the Yihetuan Movement were confined mainly to the former province of Zhili: it appeared first in Xingcheng county and then expanded into Tianjin. At the same time Qianguajiao (乾卦教,literally the “First Branch of the Eight-diagram Religion) and Kanguajiao (坎卦教, the “Second Branch of the Eight-diagram Religion) began to surface. The Quanjiao became fissiparous at the height of the Yihetuan Movement in the summer of 1900. Members of Quanjiao who came under the banners of Qianguajiao and Kanguajiao operated independently of Shengxiandao (literally “Society of Sages and Men of Virtue”) and Jiugongdao (literally “Nine-palace Society”). Their relationships with the court of the Qing dynasty were intricate. Although the Yihetuan Movement was rooted in popular secret religious societies it should not be seen as a religious war.
