About me / Bio:
Tan Yankai was a Chinese educator and politician in the late Qing dynasty and early republican period. He attended Columbia University in the United States, and upon returning to China, he helped found Tsinghua University to prepare Chinese students to study abroad in America. He was a supporter of Yuan Shikai, the provisional president, and his actions to revert China from a republic to a monarch-led empire. He served as the governor of Shandong province, the Minister of War, the Minister of Communication, the Minister of Finance, and the special envoy to Japan. He also briefly served as the acting President and Premier of the Republic of China in 1922, during Liang Shiyi's illness¹. He was a member of the Communications Clique, a political faction that advocated for modernization and centralization of China. He died of a heart attack in Shanghai in 1923¹.
