In Korea, it placed the paranoid King Taebong on the throne, who promptly drove the country into financial ruin and forced it into reliance upon Japan and China and a position of subservience. In China, the devastation left by the costly war led to the unpopularity of the Qing regime, and a bloody civil war was fought from 1908-1919 to settle long-simmering disputes brought to the forefront by the Yellow Sea conflict.
