German Peasants' War

The German Peasant War was a large-scale peasant uprising that broke out in 1524. At the beginning, it was a local peasant uprising and later extended to most of the southern regions (southern Germany, Austria and Switzerland). The peasants raised clear requirements for the first time by proposing the Twelve Clauses Uprising. In 1525, the uprising was suppressed in Schwaben, Franken, Alsace and Turingen. The 1526 uprising was extinguished in Saxony and Tyrol. Similar uprisings had broken out in Britain and Switzerland before the peasant uprising broke out.

Münster Rebellion

The Münster Rebellion took place after the German Peasants' War, in which they attempted an Anabaptist Christian Theocracy between 1532 (in fact 1534) and 1535 in the Holy Roman Empire. The foundations of the community believed that the Bible claimed absolute equality and distribution of all goods. In Münster, several men were soon baptized and others were apparently rebaptized with the support of Bernhard Rothmann. The rebellion ended in 1535, after being taken over by the besiegers of the Holy Roman Empire, in which all the leaders were tortured and executed and their bodies exposed in public in cages.

History

In Barbados

In Barbados Christian Socialism is based on opposition leader, former MP and Bishop Joseph Atherley and the party he founded: People's Party for Democracy and Development (PdP), whose slogan is "God, Growth and Peace". His ideas are based on laborism, Christian Social Democracy and a left-wing democracy. Christian leftism is evident when Atherley announced the formation of the PdP in 2018, stating that the party would be "socialist and Christian".[2]

Atherley was the only member of the chamber for the PdP and made an alliance with the United Progressive Party, forming the electoral alliance Party of the Alliance for Progress, adopting the ideology of both parties, being Progressivism and Christian Democratic Socialism. The Alliance is from the opposition and received 2.81% taking 3rd place and its slogan is "Download APP".

In Nicaragua

In Nicaragua Christian socialism had influence in the form of Sandinista ideology also known as Sandinismo, based on the revolutionary Augusto César Sandino and espoused by the Sandinista National Liberation Front.

Augusto César Sandino was a Nicaraguan revolutionary who from 1927 to 1933 was the leader of an armed rebellion against the US occupation of Nicaragua. Despite being assassinated, Sandino became an anti-imperialist icon.

In 1961, Nicaragua was under the dictatorship of the Somoza Family, which was backed by the United States, so, inspired by Sandino's asañas, the socialist politician Carlos Fonseca founded the Sandinista National Liberation Front, a guerrilla organization from socialist court that, after waging a violent revolution, managed to overthrow the Somoza Family and establish a socialist government.

Following this, the Sandinistas clashed with anti-communist insurgent groups called "Contras" in a civil war that lasted until 1990, when the opposition defeated the Sandinistas in pre-presidential elections.

After a long time without being in power, the Sandinistas would win the 2006 presidential elections with Daniel Ortega, who over time would perpetuate himself in power. Currently the Sandinistas control almost the entire national samblea. Under Ortega, the Sandinista government has moved away from the left and become more authoritarian.

Taiping Heavenly Kingdom

The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was a state in China from 1851 to 1864. It was formed by Hong Xiuquan, who claimed he was the younger brother of Jesus and tried to overthrow the Qing Dynasty and install a Christian Theocracy. While not necessarily communist, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom implemented numerous policies similar to communism, such as abolishing private property and the creation of a classless society. The Taiping inplemented a large number of sweeping reform to make China more like the God Worshipping Society. These included:

  • The subject of study for the state examinations for officials changed from the Confucian classics to the Bible.
  • Private property was abolished.
  • Land was redistributed back to the peasants.
  • The solar calendar was replaced by the lunar calendar.
  • Foot binding was banned.
  • Society was declared classless.
  • The sexes were declared equal and women could take the state examinations for the first time in Chinese history. Women served in the military, including Hong Xuanjiao, Su Sanniang and Qin Ersao.
  • The sexes were rigorously separated and entire military divisions were created for just women and, until 1855, married couples weren't allowed to have sex, unless it was for making children.
  • The queue hairstyle, which was mandated under the Qing Dynasty, was abandoned.
  • Opium, gambling, tobacco, alcohol, polygamy (including concubinage), slavery, and prostitution. All of these carried death penalties.

Gan Prince Hong Rengan also proposed some more reforms, which he got the permission of the Heavenly King to implement, but the Qing Dynasty, British Empire and Second French Empire destroyed the Taiping. The reforms included:

  • Making 1 railway for every province.
  • Adopting steamships.
  • Establishment of private banks.
  • Granting of 10 year patents for major inventions, 5 year patents for minor inventions.
  • Establishment of a national postal service.
  • Promotion of mineral exploration.
  • Introduction of governmental investigative officers.
  • Introduction of independent state media officers for reporting the news.
  • Institution of district treasuries and paymasters to manage finances.

The war between the Qing Dynasty and Taiping Heavenly Kingdom would be known as the Taiping Rebellion, and would result in between 20-30 million deaths, making it one of the bloodiest conflicts in human history, second only to World War 2. The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom issued "The Land System of the Heavenly Dynasty". This system tries to abolish feudal land ownership and distribute land equally according to population and age. But today's historians believe that it is utopian and wrong, because this system is based on the average of small-scale peasant economy.
