When I was a kid I only ever heard about the "Qing/Manchu Conquest of China". Now everyone uses the phrase "Ming-Qing Transition". Why the change? No one calls the violent conquest of England "the Norman Transition".

Is the terminology purely academic or do contemporary nationalist sensitivities play into it too? I'm broadly aware that Qing historiography is a topic certain people have very strong opinions on.
