The Duhare Tribe part 1
Living near the Chicora people in South Carolina and Georgia, was the Duhare tribe. They were very different to the other natives. They were Caucasian, had red or brown hair that hung to their knees, freckles, grey eyes, and they were noticeably taller than other natives. Most of the men had mustaches and the high leaders had beards. They were governed by a chief named Datha, who was of a gigantic size, whose wife was as large as he was. In place of horses, the king was carried on the shoulders of strong young men. The chief was decorated with brightly colored paint or tattoos. The chief and his wife lived in a stone palace. They herded domesticated deer using herd dogs in the way that Europeans did cattle. They also milked the deer and made cheese from the milk. They were first encountered in 1521 by Captain Francisco Gordillo, a Spanish explorer.

"A touchstone of our actions, as we follow these old moral principles, is 'Cheng' (Sincerity). 'Cheng' means a sincere and determined purpose, absolute loyalty to our cause, so that we do not falter or turn back, but give all our energy to the task before us. It means that we must not cease to make ourselves strong and capable; what we do not know we must faithfully learn; what we have learned we must faithfully do. Our ancient sages said, โ€˜Gold and hard rock will break open for the man of sincere devotion'...

The man with stern self-discipline will be real and thorough in all he does; he will bury himself in his tasks and show definite results. He will not be afraid of difficulties; he will stand upon his own feet; he will be open and above board in his actions... without a trace of selfish greed. He will put society above self, and work for the welfare of all... Nothing is impossible to the man of fixed purpose..."

The Chinese 'Younger Brother of Christ'
Hong Xiuquan came from a literate Hakka peasant family. He failed the imperial examinations four times. After his second attempt at the examinations in 1836, two Protestant preachers, one Chinese and one American (Edwin Stevens), gave him a set of nine pamphlets containing essays and biblical selections, titled Good Words for Exhorting the Age, written by Liang Fa and published in 1832.
His attention was drawn to Liang Faโ€™s pamphlets through his cousin, Li Jingfang (Ching-fang), who had borrowed them for his own reading and was fascinated by their content. Hong seemed to find illumination for his earlier visions from the pamphlets. He identified God the Father as the venerable old man in his dreams, Jesus as the middle-aged elder brother, and the idols as the demons he saw in his visions. He believed he had received a divine mandate to lead the people.

Hong then proceeded to Guangxi, where he found that Feng, in just two years, had formed a syncretistic religious sect, the Bai Shangdi Hui (The Society of the Worshippers of Shangdi), with more than 3,000 followers. In addition to monotheism and baptism, the followers observed religious rites such as the burning of paper containing confessed sins, formal evening and morning prayers and grace, and the consumption of animals sacrificed as part of a marriage, burial, and New Year celebration. Hong was welcomed with reverence as โ€œMaster Hong.โ€ The increase in Shangdi worshippers led to inevitable hostilities with the Confucian gentry and Manchu authorities.
This lead to the Taipeng Rebellion which killed Around 20mill Chinese

In January 1851 Hong and his followers set up a new dynasty in Guangxi. Their kingdom was called the โ€œHeavenly Kingdom of Eternal Peace and Prosperityโ€ (Taiping Tianguo), and Hong was declared the โ€œHeavenly Kingโ€ (Tian Wang). In March 1853 Hong and his followers captured Nanjing and made it their capital, naming it Tianjing (Heavenly Capital). They held the city for more than a decade. Although Hong devoted much time to praying for his kingdom and his palace was run with strict discipline and an insistence on moral education, Hong himself reputedly had 88 wives. Each wife was considered a daughter-in-law of God and the younger sister of the queen. An attempt by Yang Xiuqing (Hsiu-ching), Hongโ€™s โ€œEast Kingโ€ (Dong Wang), to usurp the throne in 1856 resulted in the deaths of four leaders, which weakened the Taiping Tianguo. Hong died on 1 Jun 1864 during the siege of the city by the Manchu authorities. His 16-year-old son, Hong Tian-kuei-fu, succeeded him on 6 Jun 1864.
