history

The association was founded in 1904 by Cai Yuanpei and was active in the provinces of Jiangsu and Zhejiang as well as in the port city of Shanghai . Its members included the women's rights activist Qiu Jin , the philosopher and linguist Wu Zhihui, the educator Tao Chengzhang, the imperial official Xu Xilin, and the philologists Zhang Binglin and Zhang Binglin. Other parties with the goal of a revolutionary end to the monarchy and the creation of a Chinese republic already existed before the founding of the Guangfuhui, such as the Xingzhonghui in Hawaii and Hong Kong , the Huaxinghui in Hunan , the Gongjinhui on the upper reaches of the Changjiang in Sichuan , the Furenwen in Hong Kong , the Yiwenhui and the Hanzhuduilihui in Fujian , the Gongchanghui in Sichuan , the Yizhihui in Jiangxi , the Yuewanghui in Anhui and the Qunzhihui in Guangdong . In 1905, the Guangfuhui merged with the Xingzhonghui and the Huaxinghui to form Tongmenghui , which was renamed Zhongguo Guomindang in 1913 .
