Wuchang Uprising (1911)
On the Chinese Revolution map as “The Wuchang rising”
10 Oct 1911 — A bomb explodes prematurely in a revolutionary cell in Hankou, and the authorities seize the plotters’ membership lists. New Army soldiers whose names are on them face execution; that night they mutiny instead. Within six weeks fifteen provinces declare for a republic. The dynasty that had ruled since 1644 has been brought down after an accident with a fuse.
