Chinese History Modern Edition

How did Imperialism Impact China? China tried to shut itself off. Europeans forced China to give them access to their country. This made some people want to free China by making it modern.

Who was Sun Yat-sen? Overthrew the emperor, formed a republic. Wanted to make China modern & strong. Also wanted to kick Europeans out & make life better for Chinese.

Why did China have a Civil War? The Communists were fighting for control of China. Mao Zedong was Communist leader. Communists win, Nationalists flee to Taiwan.

Who was Mao Zedong? This guy. Leader of Chinese Communist Party. Led China from

What was life like in Communist China? Some things got better at first. Communist officials ruled more fairly, land given to peasants, etc. Less corruption than under Emperor. This did not last.

What was the Great Leap Forward? Mao wanted to make China very modern & industrial. His idea? Catch up with Europe very fast. Forced people to make steel in their back yards. Led to death by starvation of millions because of collective farming. Successful? No!

The peoples’ communes are good. Long live the General Line! Long live the Great Leap Forward! Long live the Peoples’ Communes!

What was the Cultural Revolution? Mao wanted to reshape Chinese society. Encouraged students to rise up against their teachers, parents. Went against Confucianism. Then he sent students to work with peasants in the countryside. It got out of control, disrupted society, nothing got done for years.

Educated youth must go to the countryside to receive re-education from the poor and lower-middle peasants!

Warriors love reading Chairman Mao’s books most

What happened after Mao Died? Deng Xiaoping took over. He makes changes, makes China more capitalist. China grows and becomes wealthier. Today, China is Communist in name only…they are pretty much a dictatorship now.

What was Tiananmen Square? Protest by students in They wanted jobs and democracy. Thousands gather in Tiananmen Square to protest and strike. Chinese gov’t sent tanks & troops in to crush protest. At least hundreds were killed.
