As the Qing dynasty continued to decline after the first opium war, the reins of the crumbling empire were passed unto 18 year old prince Yizhu, who would be crowned as emperor Xianfeng. His rule, that would see the rise of multitudes of revolts including the Taiping rebellion, Nian rebellion and Panthay rebellion, and the second opium war, would bring china from a tenuous position, to near collapse.
