The Tongmenghui of China[a] was a secret society and underground resistance movement founded by Sun Yat-sen, Song Jiaoren, and others in Tokyo, Empire of Japan, on 20 August 1905, with the goal of overthrowing China's Qing dynasty.[2][3] It was formed from the merger of multiple late-Qing dynasty Chinese revolutionary groups.
