Description

During the Boxer Rebellion (1899–1901) – an uprising against Western foreigners in China – the German army joined the Eight-Nation Alliance (which also comprised France, the United Kingdom, Japan, Russia, the United States, Italy and Austria-Hungary) in order to safeguard their interests in the country. German troops remained in the region until the signing of the Boxer Protocol in September 1901.
