Guangxi Clique

The Guangxi Clique was a regional political and military faction in China during the early 20th century, centered in Guangxi province. Led by warlord Xianggui (including figures like Li Zongren), it played a significant role in China's complex Warlord Era, which followed the fall of the Qing Dynasty. The clique was known for its military strength and regional influence, often aligning or rivaling other factions in power struggles. Though primarily focused on regional interests, it contributed to the broader political instability during China's transition from imperial rule to a republic.
