Puyi (Napoleon's World)

Puyi, or the Xuantong Emperor, was the Emperor of China from 1924 to 1967, a period in which he reigned over one of the most turbulent eras in Chinese history. He was coronated upon becoming an adult in 1924 and during his regnal period oversaw the Pacific War, the Second Sino-Japanese War, the Chinese Civil War, the westernization of China, the modernization of China, and the rebuilding of the Sino-Japanese Alliance. As one of the authors of the 1950 Chinese Constitution, he was influential in forming the Imperial Constitutionalist state that exists today. Having no issue in his life, he was succeeded by his brother Pujie upon his death in 1967.
