1 and 1840 gengzi year: during the first opium war in China, western powers knocked on the door of the ancient and closed Manchu dynasty.
2. The Year of Gengzi (1900): Eight-Nation Alliance entered Beijing, and Cixi fled to the west quickly. Because she fled too hastily, most of the princes and ministers who stayed in Beijing were blocked at home by foreigners. Faced with sudden changes, many people are at a loss.
3. The Year of Gengzi (1960): A three-year famine began in China, and tens of millions of people starved to death.
Boxer year in world history;
1, 1900 boxer year: There was a great famine in India, and millions of people starved to death. A wave of strikes broke out in Europe, a war broke out in South Africa, and bodies were everywhere.
2. Year of Gengzi (1960): 17 African countries declared their independence one after another, which is called the "Year of African Independence". The United States officially sent troops to intervene in the Vietnam War. A 9.5-magnitude earthquake struck Chile, breaking the human record, with 6.5438+0.4 million deaths.
3. It seems that every Boxer Year is accompanied by an emphasis on catastrophe or a historical turning point. Natural and man-made disasters go hand in hand, spreading disasters, wars and deaths everywhere. And in such a year of catastrophe, every 60 years old. It is like the execution track of stars, pushing history back and forth in amazing similarity.
4. The year of Gengzi, which coincides with the Millennium, is also the year of the golden mouse.
5. The argument that Gengzi suffers disasters every year is more related to people's cognition of the characteristics of things. If a certain year is preset as a particularly disaster-prone year, it is easy for people to focus on the negative things that have happened and list all the negative news, and naturally feel that disaster years come again and again. On the contrary, if it is expected that good things will happen easily in a certain year, people's attention will focus on good things, and listing all the good things that have happened seems to have the same effect.
