China Storyboard (Tamim)
טקסט Storyboard
- China had split apart with different regions controlled by various warlords after the last Chinese emperor of the Qing Dynasty was forced to step down in 1911
- A political party known as the “Nationalists” wanted to reunite China together under one government and make it into a democracy.
- The Nationalists weren’t powerful enough to unite China all by themselves, so they soon allied with another group: the Chinese Communists.
- The Nationalists, many of whom were members of the middle class, wanted a Western-style democracy and the Communists wanted an entire social revolution and end to social classes. The Nationalists soon betrayed the Communist sand began persecuting them.
- One of the main leaders of the Chinese Communist Party by now was Mao Zedong. Mao’s plan for making Communism succeed was to gain support among China’s large peasant population. He was incredibly successful at convincing the peasants to join the Communist cause and raising a large peasant army – the Red Army. As his forces gained control of territory, he would seize land and then divide it equally between the peasants, later defeating the Nationalists.
- On October 1, 1949, Mao declared the creation of the People's Republic of China – declaring China to be a Communist State. The Nationalist government fled across the sea to the island of Taiwan later that year to set themselves up there. From this point on, China and Taiwan would be separate countries with the Communists the undisputed rulers of mainland China.
