According to Travel King (travelking.com.tw), the National Day of the Republic of China, which is known as the Taiwan National Day or Double Tenth Day, is to commemorate the 1911 Wuchang Uprising, a milestone of China’s politics development and a new chapter in the history of the Chinese which led to the collapse of the Qing Dynasty.
