In "Revolution and Republic," Alexandra Reeves examines the dramatic fall of China's imperial system and the turbulent birth of the Chinese Republic. From the Qing Dynasty's decline through foreign humiliation to Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary vision, the episode traces how China's 2,000-year-old imperial tradition gave way to modern nationhood.
