Twilight of a Nation (Chinese: 太平天國 Tai Ping Tin Gwok, also known as Taiping Heavenly Kingdom)note "Tai Ping" meaning "Great Peace" in Chinese is a Hong Kong television drama series starring Ray Lui as Hong Xiuquan, Felix Wong as Yang Xiuqing, and Man-Yee "Barbara" Chan as Hong Xuanjiao. Set during the late Qing Dynasty era, this series loosely follows the life of Hong Xiuquan, a young Hakka scholar who wants to pass the Imperial Examination so that he can lift his family out of poverty, but fails… which leads to him having a mental breakdown. While rendered sick and comatose by his anxiety, Hong dreams about being in Heaven, and meeting God. Upon meeting him, Hong receives a startling revelation: he is God's Second Son, and the younger brother of Jesus Christ. Furthermore, God instructs Hong to purge China of its idols and demons. After Hong awakens from his coma, he believes that the God whom he read about in a Christian booklet, Good Words to Admonish the Agenote which he had received from an American priest named Edwin Stevens in Canton, modern-day Guangzhou was the same one in his visions. With his eyes opened, Hong converts to Christianity; he becomes committed to spreading his newfound faith by destroying the symbols of China's old faiths, and converting people. Eventually, he gains a substantial following, and forms his own cult known as the Society of God Worshippersnote They are later renamed the Taipings/Taiping rebels.. The rising prominence of the God Worshippers among the peasants stokes the ire of the local Qing authorities, who try to shut down the religious sect. Hong and his followers manage to defeat the force sent to crush his cult. Invigorated by his victories, Hong declares that he shall liberate China from the Qing; this leads to what would be known as one of the bloodiest conflicts in human history, the Taiping Rebellionnote which officially lasts from December 1850 to August 1864... | |

Achievement Test of Destiny: The Imperial Examination, which is a civil service examination system that was used in Imperial China for the purpose of selecting candidates for state bureaucracy. In order to pass, the applicants must be capable writers, understand Chinese classics (primarily the works of Confucius and Laozi), and demonstrate exceptional literary styles. Both Xiuquan and Yunshan tried to pass the exam multiple times, but they were unsuccessful. Xiuquan's inability to pass leads him to seek Christianity as the solution to his life's problems. | |

Adaptational Nice Guy: Hong Xiuquan was historically known as a womanizing tyrant who abused his power (like forbidding his people from having sex, meanwhile he had a Royal Harem). In this drama series, he is depicted as a naïvely benevolent king in an increasingly corrupt, Decadent Court. In the drama, he only has one queen, and one concubine, Ye Ling. | |

His ambitions become greater once he gains a large following, as he sets his eyes on the dream of ruling China. | |

Artistic License – Traditional Christianity: Played straight with Hong Xiuquan. He has a misconceived understanding of Christianity as the book he frequently uses, Good Words to Admonish The Age, is merely a primer on the religion. Both historically and in the drama, Hong never read The Bible. | |
