In 1892, Sun graduated from the Hong Kong College of Medicine as a doctor. But he was so incensed by the weak, backward Qing, or Manchu, dynasty's inability to defend China against foreign colonialists that he gave up medicine for politics. He returned home again and founded the Revive China Society, which was dedicated to fostering prosperity and revolutionary action.
On this day in history, December 30:
Sun Yat-sen, who is commonly called the "Father of Modern China" due to his lifelong dedication to ending corrupt, conservative imperial rule, was elected the first president of the Republic of China in 1911.
Sun returned to his homeland and was elected the first president of the Republic of China at a meeting of representatives from the provinces. In 1912, Emperor Puyi abdicated, marking the end of the last of the imperial dynasties that had ruled China for more than 2,000 years. Sun led the newly formed Kuomintang (KMT), or Nationalist Party. Then [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], in 1913, he resigned the presidency in favor of Yuan Shikai, an army commander. Sun led an unsuccessful revolt against Yuan, and was forced to seek asylum
In 1905, Sun proclaimed his political philosophy, the Three Principles of the People, which embraced nationalism, democracy [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and the people's livelihood (or socialism, populism, and livelihood, depending on the translation). These became the ideological foundation for his Revolutionary Alliance. However, pressured by Beijing [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the Japanese government expelled him. In 1907-08, he staged several revolts from Hanoi, where the sympathetic French had welcomed him, but imperial pressure prevailed again, and he had to flee to Singapore.

Three Principles of the People
Sun donned Western clothes, grew a mustache and, posing as a Japanese, set out to raise money and win new recruits. In London, he was kidnapped by Chinese diplomats and held captive pending deportation to China. Rescued at the last minute, he emerged with an international reputation enhanced by his own written account of the ordeal, Kidnapped in London, published in 1897.
Born to a peasant family near the Portuguese colony of Macao in 1866, Sun moved at age 13 to Honolulu to live with his brother. He enrolled in school, where he studied English, mathematics and science, as well as Western religion. After graduation in 1882, he returned to his hometown, but was banished for defacing the village idols. The following year, he was baptized by an American Christian missionary in Hong Kong.
The Sino-Japanese War seemed to favor the possible overthrow of the Manchus, so Sun returned to Hong Kong and reorganized a revolutionary coalition, the Alliance Society, which recruited overseas Chinese. An uprising he planned in Canton in 1895 was discovered, and some of his comrades were executed. This time, he found refuge in Japan.
Sun returned to the United States and was enroute to Kansas City on a fund-raising tour when he read news reports that a successful revolt had erupted in the central Yangtze Valley city of Wuchang. This insurrection toppled the Qing Dynasty on October 10, 1911, while he was still in exile.
In England, he frequently visited the reading room of the British Museum, where he studied the revolutionary works of Karl Marx. After the failure of another rebellion in China in 1900, Sun spent three years in Japan, establishing ties with Chinese students who flocked there for a modern education. From 1903 to 1905, he resumed his travels, recruiting adherents among expatriate Chinese in Hawaii, Southeast Asia, Europe, Canada and the United States.
