In 1616, Nurhaci claimed himself the khan and used the state name of the former Jin dynasty, which is named by historians as the "Later Jin" (Chinese:後金). The son of Nurhaci, Hong Taiji, changed the state name into the Great Qing (Manchu:ᡩᠠᡳᠴᡳᠩ

, tr. Daicing Gurun; Chinese:大清). The Later Jin lasted 21 years and was ruled by two monarchs.
