The Boxer Rebellion, which occurred in China from 1899 to 1901, was an anti-foreign, anti-colonial, and anti-Christian uprising led by the "Boxers," a Chinese secret society that sought to rid China of foreign influence and missionaries. The rebellion led to an international response as eight nations, including the United States, formed an alliance and deployed troops to suppress the uprising and relieve foreign legations under siege in Beijing, reinforcing foreign spheres of influence in China.Added to timeline:
