Evaluation of Hong Xiuquan's Historical Figures
Judging from his achievements, Hong Xiuquan founded "Worship God", advocated equality for all, and liberated the minds of backward people. Facing the decadent Qing dynasty, Hong Xiuquan led the people to challenge the authority of the Qing government and strive for power, which played a great role in social progress. He founded the leadership team of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom twice and made great contributions to the development of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. The promulgated Land System of China far surpassed previous peasant uprisings in content and thought, which can be said to perfectly express the simple ideological requirements of peasants and represent the peak of peasant uprisings.

From the fault point of view, Hong Xiuquan's talent is limited. After he made some achievements, he began to covet pleasure, which led to infighting in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and eventually led to the failure of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement.
