The Sierran Cultural Revolution, also known as the Xinchou Revolution (Chinese: 辛丑革命; pinyin: Xīnchǒu gémìng), or the Revolution of 1901, was a period of social and political change that coincided with the progressive reform movement that took place in Sierra from 1901 to 1945. The Revolution radically changed racial and social attitudes in Sierra, and led to the birth of contemporary Sierran culture. The Revolution was marked with widespread legal reforms, shift in attitudes and customs, increased immigration, and violent outbreaks from reactionaries. The change transformed Sierra into a cosmopolitan society and impacted modern Sierran politics and democracy, leading it towards the global power it has reached in the present-day.

abstract
  • The Sierran Cultural Revolution, also known as the Xinchou Revolution (Chinese: 辛丑革命; pinyin: Xīnchǒu gémìng), or the Revolution of 1901, was a period of social and political change that coincided with the progressive reform movement that took place in Sierra from 1901 to 1945. The Revolution radically changed racial and social attitudes in Sierra, and led to the birth of contemporary Sierran culture. The Revolution was marked with widespread legal reforms, shift in attitudes and customs, increased immigration, and violent outbreaks from reactionaries. The change transformed Sierra into a cosmopolitan society and impacted modern Sierran politics and democracy, leading it towards the global power it has reached in the present-day. The Revolution began in response to the effects of the Industrial Revolution and continued immigration of people from Asia and Latin America into Sierra. The rapid modernization and technological advancement of Sierra came at the cost of poor living conditions for the lower and middle classes and widespread corruption among Sierra's corporate elites. Immigration on the other hand, fueled racial tensions between the predominant Sierran whites and non-white immigrants who posed a threat to economic and labor interests. Social progressives and reformists sought to consolidate better conditions and rights to the disaffected commoners and to extend cordiality to new ethnic groups. Rigorous and active campaigning for civil rights to Asians, Hispanics, and blacks led to increased social integration and coexistence. The especially apparent prominence of Asian immigrants in Sierra eventually ballooned into genuine interest among whites, mystified with Orientalism, though best exemplified through sociologist Mark Culler's Comparison of Western and Oriental Thought who called for the union between European Protestant culture with East Asian Confucian culture. Growing acceptance and open adoption of new cultures between all ethnic groups evolved into a national, cohesive culture of similar customs and beliefs that consolidated elements from both Western and Eastern culture. Opposition to the changes ushered forth by the Revolution came from traditionalists and nativists who sought to preserve ideals of white supremacy and rejection of progressive thinking. Occasionally, resistance turned violent, with numerous race-related riots, lynchings, murders, and organized crime against minorities spearheaded by racist and nationalist organizations such as the Imperial Knights of Sierra (IKS) and the Workingmen's Party. Increased social stigmatization of these groups and continued growing acceptance of the new revolutionary culture, coupled with government support for such changes eventually led to the counterrevolutionary movement's apparent obsolescence by the end of World War II. Today, Sierran society regards the Revolution as the key instrument to its success and flourishing culture. The Revolution allowed Sierra to modernize and to transcend group differences, granting it the power to focus on domestic issues, and work towards national improvement. The mass enfranchisement and politicization of various groups encouraged participatory democracy and reforms in business allowed for fairer conditions for workers. In addition, the Revolution is viewed as the hallmark of modern Sierran culture and the precursor to similar social movements in other Anglo-American countries such as the American Civil Rights Movement).
