Anti-Manchuism

Anti-Manchuism is the sentiment in the history of China held against Manchus who were present in the region, especially against the Qing Dynasty ruling administration, which was often resented for being foreign rulers, despite a degree of cultural integration. This ethnic-based sentiment tended to be a subset of the greater anti-Qing sentiment.

Sun Yat Sen was the founder of Chinese Republic who overthrew the Qing Dynasty which ruled over all of China from 1644 to 1911 proclaimed as such when he launch his rebellion against the tyrannical Qing Dynasty which was ruled by Manchus:

In order to restore our national independence, we must first restore the Chinese nation. In order to restore the Chinese nation, we must drive the barbarian Manchus back to the Changbai Mountains. In order to get rid of the barbarians, we must first overthrow the present tyrannical, dictatorial, ugly, and corrupt Qing government. Fellow countrymen, a revolution is the only means to overthrow the Qing government!

Sun Yat Sen
