Everything about Tang Ching-sung totally explained

Tang Ching-sung (Chinese: 唐景崧; pinyin: Táng Jǐngsōng) (1841-1903),was the first President of the Republic of Formosa. He was inaugurated as the President of the Republic of Formosa on May 25, 1895 and then issued a declaration of independence from the Qing dynasty. The declaration wasn't to fulfill any separatist intentions, but an attempt to stave off a Japanese invasion: the new Republic of Formosa was declared a tributary of Qing and was established to make the argument that the Qing had no legal authority to cede Taiwan. The Japanese invaded northern Taiwan on May 29, 1895 and President Tang Ching-sung disguised himself as an old woman and fled to mainland China on June 4. He was succeeded by Liu Yung-fu on the next day.
