History of Piracy in Chaoshan: Four Overseas Colonial History

1, chaozhou people Chen's colonial history

The first * * Republic in modern Asia-the * * Republic under the control of Doris.

1776 this year is destined to be a special year. British immigrants in northern China witnessed the signing of the Declaration of Independence, while American immigrants across the ocean also established a bourgeois republic in 1 10. In that poor era, this group of China people struggled to survive and establish political power on tropical islands with amazing perseverance, which was an epoch-making feat.

Chen from Chaozhou, Guangdong and Luo Fangbo from Meizhou, Guangdong joined hands to set up a political entity called Lanfang Company in remote West Borneo. Later, the two men renamed the company "Hehuo", and the national leader was called "presidential system", which was elected by the citizens of the whole country. In order to seek self-protection, the country requested to become a vassal state of the Qing Dynasty at the beginning of its independence, but it failed to do so because it was regarded as a pirate's lair by Emperor Qianlong. In A.D. 1884, the Dutch army invaded the country on a large scale, occupied the country two years later and established a puppet regime, but it was not until the demise of the Qing Dynasty that it announced its occupation of the country.

Unfortunately, it was not until around 1930 that people gradually noticed Doris * * * and China. Influenced by social thoughts, many scholars have written books to publicize the so-called "colonial history of China". Luo Xianglin, the father of Hakka studies, specializes in writing books to praise. Liang Qichao also listed Luo Fangbo, the founding father, as one of the eight great men in the colonial history of China. It was from this time that it gradually became known.

2. Raoping Zhang Lian's colonial history.

Longfei village, the settlement of overseas Chinese.

Compared with the above Doris * * *, this "land of flying dragons" is actually more like a "den of bandits". During the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Lian, a native of Raoping, Guangdong Province, was dissatisfied with the increasingly corrupt court. After killing local officials, he led his people to the rebels in Tai Po. After the death of Zheng Ba, the leader of the rebel army, Zhang Lian was elected as the leader by his subordinates, and organized many battles, and was finally besieged by 200,000 troops in the Ming Dynasty.

After the failure of the uprising, Zhang Lian led the remnants to flee from the sea, all the way down to Sanyuan Island (Sumatra Island), claiming the title of king, and occupied the old port of the Ming Dynasty, Xuanwei Division, Johor, Malacca and other places, and vigorously developed fisheries. Nearby overseas Chinese and Chaoshan Chinese have settled here. In recent years, some stone tablets engraved with the title of "Dragonfly" have been unearthed in Sumatra Island and Jiugang Island, which strongly proves the existence of this regime.

3. The colonial history of Chenghai Zheng Xin.

Daxin personally founded the Wu Dynasty.

Friends who are familiar with the kingdom of Thailand should know that the royal family in Thailand today belongs to the Bangkok dynasty (also known as the Chakri dynasty). Before this dynasty, it was the famous "Wu Li Dynasty". Its founder is Zheng Xin, whose ancestral home is Chenghai, Guangdong, and he was born in Ayutthaya. He is called "Daxin the Great" and is one of the five greatest emperors in the hearts of the Thai people. He almost worships him as a god, and there is a "Zheng Wang Festival" every year.

His father Yongzheng moved to Siam during the Yongzheng period, married a local woman Noyan, gave birth to Zheng Xin, and died soon after. Zheng Xin was adopted by Siamese ministers as a child, received traditional Thai education, and formally entered politics as an adult. Zheng Xin later led the Siamese army to resist the invasion of Myanmar, recovered the whole territory of Siam, established the "Wu Li Dynasty" and paid tribute to the Qing Dynasty. /kloc-died in a coup d' é tat 0/3 years later, and his successor Rama I established the Bangkok dynasty and inherited his surname, so the surname of King China of Thailand is still "Zheng".

4. The colonial history of hipster Zhang.

The local China people are still eager to establish a country-Natuna Island.

Natuna Islands, located in Indonesia, was known to China people in the Han Dynasty, and it was recorded in the history books as "the first naval battery". In the middle and late Qing Dynasty, the influx of Guangdong people led by Zhang came here and became king on his own, but his title was undecided. After his death, there was turmoil within the ruling class, and the kingdom eventually collapsed and was colonized by the Netherlands.

This archipelago covers an area of 2 1 10 square kilometers, which is equivalent to the total land area of nearly 1000 Nansha Islands. It was once included in China's exclusive economic zone at 1992, but later voluntarily admitted that the sovereignty of this archipelago belongs to Indonesia. 1980 or so, more than 80% of the population on the island are Chinese, and they have always longed for the founding of the country but were suppressed by Indonesia. Since then, a large number of Indonesians have moved to the island, and now the proportion of Chinese is less than 15%.
