The eight nations were Japan, Russia, Britain, France, the United States, Germany, Italy and Austria-Hungary. In the summer of 1900, when the international legations in Beijing were besieged by Boxer rebels supported by the Qing government, the coalition dispatched their armed forces, in the name of “humanitarian intervention”, to defend their respective nations’ citizens, as well as a number of Chinese Christians who had taken shelter in the legations.
