When was Guomindang Party formed? |
|
Answer» Solution :The Guomindang Party of China was established in 1912 by a nationalist leader, Dr. Sun Yat-sen. It had three objectives: (i) To liberate China from the foreign domination. (II) To establish modern democratic institutions in China. (iii) To liberate the peasants from the clutches of the feudal lords by introducing reforms. Guomindang became popular under Dr. Sun Yat-sen. The objectives of this party had almost the same to that of Communist Party established in 1921. But soon there emerged differences between the two parties. Sun Yat-sen died in 1925 and the leadership of the Guomindang Party passed into the hands of Chiang-Kai-shek. He COMMITTED atrocities on the Communists. The Communist leader Mao Tse-tung was compelled to undertake his 6000 miles Long March to increase his influence in North China. In OCTOBER 1949, he drove away Chiang-Kai-shek to the ISLAND of Formasa (Taiwan) and established - Communist rule in China. |
