2ndPrinceChun1

Zaifeng (12 February 1883 – 3 February 1951), officially known by his title of Prince Chun, was a Manchu prince of the Aisin Gioro imperial clan and a statesman during the late Qing Dynasty. He was the father of Puyi (the Xuantong Emperor), the last emperor of China, and served as the Prince-Regent in 1908–1911. He was considered to be an indecisive and incapable ruler, and his attempts to centralize power in the hands of the Manchu nobility contributed to the dynasty's collapse.
