Note:
(1) Boxer rebellion 义和拳运动
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boxer_rebellion
("China was fined war reparations of 450,000,000 tael of fine silver (1 tael
= 1.2 troy ounces) for the loss that it caused. The reparation would be
paid within 39 years, and would be 982,238,150 taels with interests (4
percent per year) included. To help meet the payment it was agreed to
increase the existing tariff from an actual 3.18 percent to 5 percent, and
to tax hitherto duty-free merchandise. The sum of reparation was estimated
by the Chinese population (roughly 450 million in 1900), to let each Chinese
pay one tael. Chinese custom income and salt tax were enlisted as guarantee
of the reparation. Russia got 30 percent of the reparation, Germany 20
percent, France 15.75 percent, Britain 11.25 percent, Japan 7.7 percent and
the US share was 7 percent. China paid 668,661,220 taels of silver from 1901
to 1939.")
(2) 辛丑条约 Boxer Protocol

("The full name of the protocol is: Austria-Hungary, Belgium, France,
Germany, Great Britain, Italy, Japan, Netherland, Russia, Spain, United
States and China —Final Protocol for the Settlement of the Disturbances of
1900, reflecting its nature as a diplomatic protocol rather than a peace
treaty at the time of signature.")
A recent protocol of note is Kyoto Protocol.
The VOA report states 《解决1900年动乱最后议定书》, which is the last part
of the full name.
(3) The report also states 中国成立外务部，“班列六部之前.”
Article XII (12) of Boxer Protocol in part: "An Imperial Edict of the 24th
July, 1901, reformed the Office of Foreign Affairs, Tsung-li Yamen, on the
lines indicated by the Powers, that is to say, transformed it into a
Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Wai Wu Pu, which takes precedence over the six
other Ministries of State; the same Edict appointed the principal Members of
this Ministry. An agreement has also been reached concerning the
modification of Court ceremonial as regards the reception of foreign
Representatives * * * Finally, it is expressly understood that as regards
the declarations specified above and the annexed documents originating with
the foreign Plenipotentiaries, the French text only is authoritative."
