Best Answer

The Boxers were members of a secret group who were officially named the "Society of Righteous and Harmonious Fists". The name of Boxers was a nickname given by the Europeans. The Boxers hated anyone who was a foreigner, especially missionaries. But even their own were not exempt. The Boxers had a deep hatred for the Chinese who had been converted to Christianity. The attacks and killings by this group finally caused European governments to send in troops and make demands that this treatment be stopped and reparations made.

What did The Boxers believe in the boxer rebellion?

The Boxers, so called by Europeans, who observed that the ill-equipped rebels often fought with their fists, rose up in opposition to foreign influence in China. During the second half of the 19th Century, the weak Qing Dynasty was forced to make a series of "unequal treaties" with foreign powers, which allowed for exploitative trade agreements, Christian missionaries, and legal immunity for foreigners. The Boxers attacked foreign merchants, missionaries, and Chinese Christians, who had converted under the tutelage of Western missionaries. Foreign embassies were placed under siege, and the Chinese military split on whether to help the Boxers or to put down the rebellion. After a Western and Japanese intervention force put down the rebellion, Chinese authorities claimed they opposed the Boxers all along, but in reality, the Empress Dowager and some of her generals supported the uprising, while other generals fought the Boxers.
