The two major tasks in China's modern history are national prosperity and national independence. This is determined by the semi-colonial and semi-feudal nature of modern China society.

Therefore, the Reform Movement of 1898 was to overthrow the dual rule of the landlord class and imperialism. The Reform Movement of 1898 was only the reconstruction of the feudal system by a few bourgeois reformists relying on Emperor Guangxu, who had no real power. China's national capitalism is not fully developed, the national bourgeoisie is weak, and it lives under the double oppression of imperialism and decadent feudal landlord class. So it is doomed to failure. The main obstacle in China's modern history is the joint rule of the absolutely decadent feudal landlord class and powerful imperialism.
