The Kangxi Emperor (May 4th, 1654-December 20th, 1722), also known by his temple name Emperor Shengzu of Qing, personal name Xuanye, was the fourth emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and the second Qing emperor to rule over China proper. His reign of 61 years makes him the longest-reigning emperor in Chinese history as well as one of the longest-reigning rulers in human history, and he is considered one of China’s greatest emperors. The third son of the Shunzhi Emperor, Kangxi was enthroned at the age of seven while actual power was held for six more years by the Four Regents nominated by his father. After assuming personal rule, Kangxi’s attempt to revoke the fiefdoms of feudal princes sparked the Revolt of the Three Feudatories, which he suppressed. He also forced the Kingdom of Tungning in Taiwan and Mongols in the north and northwest to submit to Qing rule, and launched an expedition that incorporated Tibet into the empire. Domestically, he initially welcomed the Jesuits and the propagation of Catholicism in China, but tolerance came to an end as a result of the Chinese Rites controversy. The Kangxi Emperor’s reign brought about long-term stability and relative wealth after years of war and chaos, with innovations in economics, art, crafts, and culture the most prominent accomplishments. He initiated the period known as the High Qing Era (or the “Prosperous Era of Kangxi and Qianlong”), spanning the reigns of the Kangxi Emperor, his son Yongzheng, and his grandson Qianlong. His court also accomplished such literary feats as the compilation of the Kangxi Dictionary, the Complete Tang Poems poetry anthology, and the Complete Classics Collection of Ancient China. Later in his reign Kangxi became embroiled in a prolonged succession dispute, and when he died he was succeeded by his fourth son, who assumed the throne as the Yongzheng Emperor.
