In 1963, Dorgon and others requested to be given the honorary title of Huang Taiji on the grounds that people from far away came to the country and the country was becoming increasingly prosperous. This reason allowed Huang Taiji to follow suit and officially offered sacrifices to heaven and earth. The founding title of the country was the Qing Dynasty. However, In fact, the previous Hou Jin Dynasty was changed to Da Qing Dynasty. There are actually several opinions on why Hou Jin Dynasty was changed to Da Qing Dynasty. We can look at them separately.
One theory is that before changing the name of the country, Huang Taiji abolished the title of Jurchen and changed it to Manchuria. The pronunciation of the word Manchu in Manchu is very similar to that of Manshu, and the word Manshu actually comes from Buddhism, meaning the emperor of the Qing Dynasty. It has to be said that this connection is really far-fetched, and Huang Taiji believes that using the Qing Dynasty as the country's title would have a better meaning.
Not only does it have a good meaning, but more importantly, he believes that this title can win over people's hearts and is more appropriate than Dajin or Houjin, because the Qing Dynasty will be better than the Dajin to a certain extent. Seems more acceptable. Another theory is that in Manchu, the pronunciations of Qing and Jin are actually quite similar. Huang Taiji changed the rule of the Han people to the Qing Dynasty, which is more acceptable to everyone, but in Manchu it is still the Dajin Dynasty.
But I feel that no matter what country name it is changed to, it is just Huang Taiji complying with destiny, because to be honest, even if he changes it to any other country name now, this dynasty is bound to be born. , and those speculations about changing the country's name are mostly just historians' opinions on history. From then on, the Qing Dynasty was born between heaven and earth, and this nation will rule China for more than two hundred years and become the last feudal dynasty in Chinese history. It will span two periods, ancient and modern, and is an indelible history.
