À propos de ce contenu audio

 In 18th-century Tibet, a woman's defiance sparked a war that redrew borders. Chöying Dorje, a princess of the Qing-allied Khoshut Mongols, was married to the Tibetan king in a political alliance. But when her husband took a second wife, she fled to her brother's court. Her brother, Lhazang Khan, used this as a pretext to invade Tibet, overthrowing the Dalai Lama and installing his own puppet. This led to a chain of events involving the Kangxi Emperor, a fake reincarnation, and a Dzungar invasion that ended with the fall of Lhazang Khan. We explore the human drama behind this lesser-known chapter of Tibetan history, the role of women in politics, and the cycle of violence that shaped the region.
