The Xinhai Lhasa turmoil (Tibetan: ཆུ་བྱི་དམག་འཁྲུག་, Wylie: chu byi dmag 'khrug; Chinese: 辛亥拉薩動亂), also known as the First Expulsion of the Han (Chinese: 第一次驅漢事件), was a series of mutinies among Qing military troops stationed in Lhasa, Tibet, followed by the military conflict between Tibetan militia and Qing garrison. It effectively resulted in the end of Qing rule in Tibet.
