    Lol! The “entire country of China” fell apart when Taiwan split off. If you really want to be technical about it, Taiwan actually represents the “real” government of China, since that’s where the previously existing government took refuge during the Communist revolution. All that remained of “China”, was on that island. What was created on the mainland was something new. Something different.

    The exact same situation occurred with Ukraine and the Russian Federation during the collapse of the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union ceased to exist. In its place, separate countries were formed.

            So you don’t actually know about the Cultural Revolution in China during their transition to Communism?

              You clearly don’t because it happened nearly two decades after the establishment of the PRC.

              Way to prove my point.

                Ummm, yeah. I was talking about the fall of the ROC. You’re talking about decades later. How is that relevant?

                  You mentioned the cultural revolution. You are confusing it with the 1948 revolution. It’s okay to be wrong dude just own it and learn instead of doubling down as though you know wtf you are talking about lol

                    This is the line you took issue with…

                    Lol! The “entire country of China” fell apart when Taiwan split off.

                    Which period do you think I was talking about here?
