Lotus Strengthening Movement

The Lotus Strengthening Movement (Yinguonese: 蓮花加強運動, Liánhuā jiāqiáng yùndòng) was a political, cultural, and military organization in Yinguo from the foundation of the nation in 1850 to the end of the Second Great War. It was founded by members of the former Zhu dynasty, by members of the aristocracy and by Wei who had studied abroad in the last years of the Zhu dynasty. It managed to gather many of the most progressive reformers of the Zhu from the collapse of the regime, and with the support of the Yin Taizi Emperor, they led and organized the modernization and development of the new Yin dynasty in order to secure its survival from the encroaching Shindan and later Zhenia.
