Later Jin

Later Jin, also known as the Jurchen Jin dynasty, was a Chinese dynasty established in 1616 by the Jurchen leader Nurhaci in northeastern China. It marked the rise of the Manchu people and aimed to unify various tribes against Han Chinese Ming rule. Later Jin expanded rapidly, capturing significant territories, and eventually transformed into the Qing dynasty in 1636, which went on to become one of the most powerful dynasties in Chinese history. The Later Jin played a crucial role in the transition of power that led to the establishment of Qing rule over China.
