The Qing Dynasty was China's last dynasty. It was a very powerful one,too. Even though their government wasn't all that great, they were able to become one of the strongest at the time. Their shipping was the biggest in the world ( Robinson 544). At the tme the two strongest powers were the Chinese and Muslim. They had a good balance of power because the muslims were better than them at some things and the other way around.

They spread a little more with trade. The Indian empires never had a strong relationship with the Chinese. There came a time when they all went against the Qing dynasty. The Qing dynasty's gvernment was very corrupt. They were able to conquer some places for a while up until the wars started. By that time their military had weakened.
