What is happening now with the eight countries that invaded the Qing Dynasty?

In 1900, in order to prevent the Boxers from massacring Westerners and seizing the railways, in retaliation for the Boxers’ murder of German Minister Klind and Japanese Secretary Sugiyama Bin, in order to rescue the embassy area besieged by the Boxers and the Qing army Dongjiaominxiang and Xishiku Church, in order to punish the Qing government for not respecting international rules, don’t ask me why there are so many? For?, in short, the situation escalated step by step, Japan, Russia, Britain, France, the United States, Germany, Austria-Hungary Eight countries, including Italy and Italy, jointly sent troops to invade the country and invaded Beijing through Dagu Pass in Tianjin. This incident was known as the "Eight-Nation Allied Forces' War of Invasion of China" in history. The incident ended with the Qing government once again kneeling down to beg for mercy and agreeing to pay compensation. Of course, the amount of compensation was quite large, with a total of 450 million taels of silver, and more than 980 million taels of principal and interest. They continued to compensate and compensate. Compensation will last until the Anti-Japanese War.

What happened to the eight owners who received the money (a few of them were generous and later returned most of it)? How is your life now?

Introduced in descending order of the number of troops sent:

Japan:

It sent 20,840 troops that year. Through this troop dispatch, it helped the Qing government establish the modern police system. The prototype, this guy later helped the Qing government drive away the Tsarist Russian forces in the Northeast, but the Northeast had just emerged from the tiger's den and entered the wolf's mouth. Since it later failed to deal with the Beiyang and the Republic of China government, its ambitions further expanded and launched a war of aggression against China. China joined the anti-fascist camp and, after an arduous war of resistance, defeated the invaders' wolfish ambitions. Japan is now the third largest economic power in the world. Its per capita income is among the highest among developed countries, its Gini coefficient is the lowest among developed countries, and the gap between the rich and poor is very small. It has basically achieved the righteousness of the Spring and Autumn Period.

Russia:

At that time, it sent 13,150 troops to form a group, but at the same time it sent a large army into Northeast China. It was the absolute champion in seizing Chinese land. Later generations established the Soviet Union and ushered in an era, but this era finally came to a lonely end and was pushed off the altar by one of the hegemons fighting for global hegemony. In the current Russian Federation, the old problem of economic monotony has not changed at all. Politically, it has also been criticized by the United States and Europe, and its military status has also declined significantly. It is being led by strongman Putin to recover. Although no signs of recovery have been seen, Russia People's tough attitude is becoming more and more like that of Tsarist Russia or the Soviet Union.

Britain:

That year, 12,020 troops were sent, most of them were Indians, but also Australians and Chinese Weihai people. The glory of the British Empire ended with the Second World War, and its overseas territories increased significantly. Shrunk, its dominance was replaced by its younger brother, the United States. Although the UK is now one of the five permanent members and a standard developed country, it is committed to leaving the EU and wholeheartedly accompanying Canada, Australia, and New Zealand as the core followers of the United States, and its world influence is gradually shrinking.

France:

France sent 3,520 troops that year. France’s decline was similar to that of Britain. It quickly fell under the iron heel of the German army in World War II. Fortunately, General de Gaulle’s Free French Army Only after the war did he secure a seat on the Five Permanent Standing Committee. France is still one of the developed countries and one of the dual cores of the European Union, but more and more immigration problems are also plaguing French society. Around the world, France's ambition as a great power is also weakening, and it is moving in line with the United States.

The United States:

It sent 3,420 troops that year, which was in line with its second-rate political status in the world at that time. The United States was also the first country to propose the return of the Geng money after the Xinchou Treaty. , had the least territorial ambitions towards China and provided the most support to China. But with the end of World War I and World War II, the United States has grown into a giant. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, it has become a unipolar world and the absolute world police, promoting American culture and political system everywhere. Today and even within the foreseeable decades to come, the United States will remain the undisputed hegemon. No matter in the political, economic, military, cultural and other fields, there is a lack of practical challengers.

Germany:

It sent 900 troops that year, and also sent Field Marshal Waldersee to serve as the commander-in-chief of the Eight-Nation Allied Forces. The Westerners who were killed by the Boxer Rebellion on the railway were all under his influence. Within the scope, a big reason why the Eight-Nation Allied Forces sent troops was to ask for an explanation from German Minister Klind. Germany can be said to be the initiator of the Eight-Nation Allied Forces. Later, Germany's presence in China was relatively poor, and it lost the interests of Qingdao and Shandong. Both World War I and World War II appeared as defeated countries. After World War II, Germany learned from the pain and gave up its nationalist ideology. It unified the east, made up for its historical trauma, and developed its economy rapidly. Currently, Germany is the leader of the European Union. Although They are united around the United States, but they are also slowly beginning to pursue their own right to speak. Generally speaking, they are walking on a healthier path.

The Austro-Hungarian Empire:

It sent 394 troops that year, which was basically a soy sauce. The origin of World War I was the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand, the crown prince of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. At the end of the war, this one of the five former empires in Europe collapsed. On the territory of the empire, there are now a series of relatively single-ethnic small countries of Austria, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and the former Yugoslavia. It can be said that it is fragmented and multi-ethnic. A typical example of the failure of the nation-state in modern times.

Italy:

Only 85 troops were sent back then. It was purely a soy sauce. The heir of the former Roman Empire has now become a small and not very beautiful country, although it is also one of the seven developed countries in the West ( One of the G7 countries, but its per capita income ranks at the bottom. In the past few years, it was selected as one of the four countries because of its economic performance. Until now, it has not completely emerged from the shadow of recession. Due to its "excellent" geographical location, illegal immigrants from across the Mediterranean often visit the mainland, and the immigration crisis has now become a major problem plaguing Italy.
