Duan Qirui vs Floriano Peixoto

Duan Qirui resigned as Premier of the Republic of China in 1919 following the May Fourth Movement. The movement protested the weak response of the Chinese government to the Treaty of Versailles. Duan's government was blamed for failing to protect Chinese interests, leading to his resignation.

Duan Qirui led the Anhui clique in the Anhui-Zhili War against the Zhili clique. The war was a major conflict in the Warlord Era. Duan's forces were defeated, leading to his resignation as Premier and the decline of the Anhui clique's power.

Duan Qirui was appointed as the Provisional Chief Executive of the Republic of China after the Beijing Coup. He headed a provisional government that attempted to unify the country but faced opposition from various warlords. His tenure was marked by political instability and military conflicts.

Duan Qirui's government signed the Sino-Soviet Agreement of 1924, which established diplomatic relations between the Republic of China and the Soviet Union. The agreement recognized Outer Mongolia as part of China but allowed Soviet influence. It was controversial and criticized by some Chinese nationalists.

Floriano Peixoto became President of Brazil on November 23, 1891, after Deodoro da Fonseca's resignation. As Vice President, he assumed office under the constitution, but his rule was marked by authoritarianism.

Peixoto faced the Federalist Revolution in Rio Grande do Sul, a civil war between federalists and republicans. The conflict lasted until 1895, with Peixoto's forces ultimately victorious, but at high cost.

Floriano Peixoto completed his term as president on November 15, 1894, handing power to Prudente de Morais. He was the first Brazilian president to serve a full term, despite governing under a state of siege.
