鸦片战争中,传统的爱国主义没有抵挡住西方的坚船利炮。战争的失败使先进的中国人猛醒,在睁开眼睛看西方之后,提出了“师夷长技以制夷”的口号,为爱国主义注入了新的时代内容。而且在现实的教育下,爱国与忠君思想逐渐分离,从而揭开了中国革命的新篇章。 In the Opium War, traditional patriotism did not stop the West’s gunboats. After the war failed, the advanced Chinese waked up. After they opened their eyes to the West, they put forward the slogan of “learning from the outside to improve their skills and rule the barbarians” and infused a new era element into patriotism. And under the realistic education, the patriotism and the loyalty to the monarch gradually separated, thus opening a new chapter in the Chinese revolution.
