Chinese Communism

         China turned to Communism in 1949 but the Communist Party in China was present from 1919. Before Communism took over China, there were civil wars during World War II against the Communists. The Communists eventually won in the end. China was officially declared Communist on October 1st, 1949. Mao Zedong was the Communist leader of the country at the time it was Communist and he pretty much converted the country to Communism; he started the communist revolution which took over China. China was also allies with the Soviet Union. There were four more communist leaders after Mao Zedong. To this day they are still part communist. There is some people who own businesses and things like that but Communism still rules the government even after all these generations.
