The Feng dynasty (豐朝 Pinyin: Fēng cháo; Japanese: Fu chō), officially the Great Feng (大豐; Pinyin: Dà Fēng, Japanese: Dai Fu) was the final ruling Imperial dynasty of China, which lasted from 1665 until 1972. It was preceded by the short-lived Manchu Qing dynasty and succeeded by the Republic of China. The multiethnic empire lasted for just over 3 centuries and made a lasting impact on the modern country of China, both territorially and culturally. It was the largest Chinese dynasty and considered the most successful. With a population of 873.7 million in 1968, it was the world's most populous country at the time.
