Puyi (7 February 1906 – 17 October 1967) was the last emperor of China, reigning as the eleventh monarch of the Qing dynasty from 1908 to 1912 when he was forced to abdicate. Later, he sided with Imperial Japan and was made ruler of Manchukuo — Japanese-occupied Manchuria — in hopes of regaining power as China's emperor. When the Guangxu Emperor died without an heir, Empress Dowager Cixi picked the late emperor's nephew, Puyi, aged two, to succeed him as the Xuantong Emperor. Puyi's father, Zaifeng, Prince Chun, served as regent before Puyi was forced to abdicate as a result of the Xinhai Revolution, which ended two millennia of imperial rule and established the Republic of China.
