Peking University was established in Beijing in December 1898 during the Hundred Days Reform and was originally known as the Imperial Capital University to replace the ancient Guozijian. In 1902, the Imperial Capital University's Faculty of Education was spun off to become today's Beijing Normal University, the best teacher's college in China. In 1912, following the Xinhai Revolution, the Imperial University was renamed National Peking University.
