Huaxinghui
The Huaxinghui (traditional Chinese: 華興會; simplified Chinese: 华兴会; pinyin: Huáxīng Huì; Wade–Giles: Hua-hsing hui), commonly translated as the China Revival Society or China Arise Society, was founded by Huang Xing and Zhang Shizhao on 15 February 1904 with the election of Huang Xing as its president, in Changsha of Hunan for the explicit political goal of overthrowing the Qing dynasty and establishing a democratic and free country. Many of its members later became key figures of the Tongmenghui.
