What's the difference between Hanbok and Gufu?
Hanfu is a traditional costume of Huaxia-Han nationality, and the word "Hua" in the word "Huaxia" itself refers to beautiful costumes. The costumes of the Chinese nation have lasted for more than 4000 years. It is the oldest national costume in the world and the most perfect national costume.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, China was in civil strife, and Manchu took the opportunity to invade China. In order to rule China more firmly, they came up with a deadly trick, which is to destroy Chinese civilization from clothes and hairstyles. This is of great benefit to Manchu people.
Benefit from 1, China people will never give up their clothes as long as they have a little dignity. Manchu took this opportunity to kill almost all dignified China people. Those with backbone were killed by the Qing dynasty because of their resistance, and those who survived were humiliated and reincarnated. It will be easier for the Qing Dynasty to rule the people of China in the future.
Benefit 2: Manchu had a small population and a low level of civilization, while China had a large population and a high level of civilization. The Manchu Dynasty could temporarily control China's military occupation of China, but it could not do whatever it wanted for a long time. The only way is to pull the civilization of Manchu and Huaxia together, but the civilization of Manchu can't be promoted quickly, so the best way is to destroy the civilization of Huaxia quickly. China's civilization lies in dress etiquette, so Manchu started with dress. China people lost their clothes, and their civilization naturally lost half.
Benefit 3: There were too many people in China at that time, so "keep your hair, hair and head" can kill many people in China. During the first 40 years of Manchu rule in China, tens of millions of China people were killed.
Therefore, under the butcher's knife of the Qing Dynasty, China people lost their clothes for more than 4,000 years despite tenacious resistance.
