4:02 When the KMT forces were cut off and unable to withdraw to Taiwan, many eventually tried to settle in Thailand and Burma and fought wars with those governments. In Thailand, the government eventually agreed that if KMT soldiers helped fight Thailand's communists, they'd be allowed to settle in Northern Thailand. After finally defeating Thai communists, they were given land and villages in the mountains of Northern Thailand. You can go visit them now. It's strange to be driving through the Thai mountains and then happen upon Chinese villages with Chinese buildings/signage and tea farms everywhere.
Well, the Korean War had vastly higher casualties though the fighting took place in a much smaller country China's Civil War had vast campaigns over large areas, and casualties were still very high, but nowhere near as high as the destructive Korean War
Interesting video. A fun fact is Kuomintang actually sent soldiers to Tibet to protect their territory from India during civil war. After they were defeated, CCP also sent soldiers to Tibet. When soldiers of Kuomintang met CCP soldiers, they were surprised as they didn’t know civil war was ended. They just thought Kuomintang had changed uniform style
no wonder, if they are lucky, they can even met some old comrades in enemy army, since Kuomintang and ccp are both legit political party of roc and each have legit army in roc's military system.
You really take the mapping to another level.

It's interesting that even during the Korean War, which was well into the 1950s, there were still small pockets of Kuomintang resistance, some still holding until 1958.

In the southern border of Tibet, there was a regimate of KMT Nationalist troop who have been defending the border for 11 years since 1945 after Japanese surrendered. In 1956, PLA arrived that border and they met, nationalist soldiers was astonished and asked when did the army changed uniform and relieve.

Thank-you. I never realised that the civil war was still ongoing while China was fighting in Korea. I read an autobiographical account entitled "A Manchurian's Story" about a man who survived the civil war, and then moved to Xinjiang, then Tibet, and finally Bhutan. He said that the Communists were inferior in manpower, finances, and weaponry, but the KMT was so riddled with corruption that they crumbled under an "every man for himself" ethos.

A huge mistake, Tibet had never been an independent state, even under the leadership of the corrupted loser KMT. By the way, CPC did not win KMT, CPC won the people.
@@lolpolitics3363 I think it is not intended that Tibet was independent, but that it was a region out control and was nertral during the civil war. Other war lords were controlled by KMT with different degrees, but Tibet at that time was not. The only thing it relied on KMT was that when it loss a war with neighbour war lords, it applied for KMT to intervene. The same were Outer Mongolia and East Turkestan. Due to the international situation, the former got independence and the latter joined CPC regime. But Tibet, it had no strong support from foreigners as Outer Mongolia, so it was easily control by the new regime which was much more powerful than the corrupt KMT regime.
Nice work ! One thing more: the nationalist government have representative to Tibet region during that period . And Tibet ruled by Tibetian budism accepted such governing manner . So in history Tibet should not be in white colour in your map all the time. Personal view.
the colours show countries involved in the chinese communist revolution Tibet was a puppet state of the republic of china and that's why communist china end ups invading tibet cause it wasn't sure if tibet was more than just a puppet state then they realised or it was just a puppet but they kept the land cause they fought for it already and they left that's why there are no han chinese in there
@@gamers-xh3uc check Tibet history before 1949 after which ccp started to rule China. Nothing her relates to ccp. To most Chinese , Tibet was part a long time ago , even long long time before the creation of USA. Canada and australia and New Zealand where all there were aborigines only. Think abt all story. Nothing political view to ccp on this matter . Even Tibet was ruled by a kind of form kuomingdang party which ruled China as the nam of Republic of China. before 1949. Note this is not ccp’s People’s Republic of China which was after 1949. On google image search , you search “ Map of the Republic of China in 1917” you will see their rules border including Tibet. Ccp just inherited the whole integrity after defeating Kuomintang party in 1949. If you searched further Tibet even was part of Qing dynasty before 1900.

Well made and detailed Mapping video! I also liked how you added the Korean Civil War and India's annexation of the Princely states. Just one note though, the Philippines was under the US Commonwealth only until July 4, 1946 which was also the date it gained it's independence from the US. You showed the Philippines being under the Commonwealth until the early 1950s. Despite the error, this is perhaps the most detailed video about the Second Phase of the Civil War In China. Salute to you sir!
After you've covered every era in modern Chinese history you need to string them all together into one video that goes from warlords-today. Actually never mind, not sure if youtube's servers can handle that much detail.
This is amazingly detailed, on another level compared to other "every day" history videos. I wish someone did Russian Civil war with similar detail, but that might be a too big of a request because it is the most complex war in history.
In the later period, the people hated the Kuomintang. They directly plundered the youth to serve as soldiers . More than half of the untrained civilians died on the road.
@@PissMenn What about that fact that the Communist were still atacked by the Nationalists, even after then Japanese invasion, and that the Nationalists were never atacked by the Communists (during the invasion), huh?
Great work! One thing though, on the last frame when it switches to June 2019 you forgot to mark HK and Macau as PRC-controlled land. Still, keep up the great work!
@@zenithzero6354 It was a huge victory for the communists. it allowed them to forward attack on lots of KMTs. there is chinese (dont say propaganda) film on the changchun battle
The nationalist force should have fully withdraw from the Northeast region in late 1947 to prevent encirclement. It's one of the biggest military failure they made.
Great Video, as far as I know, there are still a few flaws: 1. CCP base of Ta-pieh Mountains should exist persistently after Aug. 1947. 2. Liu Wenhui, the Kang Clique revolted on Dec. 1949 to CCP, and PLA pushed from the east rather than north to his region. 3. The Kingdom of Sikkim was formally annexed by Indians at 1975 rather than 1950. 4. Maybe you forgot to remove the UK tag on HK after 1997.
I actually like the newer music you used and think it fits better! Especially at the end when you survey all the leaders of KMT it was special. Can you give me the name of that track? Thank you and please keep making these awesome videos!
The US has a lot to do with the Kuomintang loosing. They could of done way more to support them, also the US getting involved in peace talks only allowed the PRC to reorganize and rearm. Eisenhower tried to hard to save face then actually just help the Kuomintang win when they could of. This was a big reason the PRC won.
@@horrendouss5960 the US cant against 400 million Chinese people at that time, that is the main reason Us hardly can make any changes, even if us put it's army on the field of China civil war This can be referenced from Korea war

Yeah, I didn't like his version because of how it didn't even show the entire war, and how he showed very few Nationalist offensives and counteroffensives. Also the KMT was green for some reason.
@@hazzmatithe collapse of the nationalists in 1949 was a bit like Spanish republicans ten years before, little happens then a bit and then a sudden rout
The Nationalists had US backing, the equipment, access to the country's wealth, and an overwhelming territorial advantage, and still they manage to lose. This also makes you appreciate the fact that modern China wasn't built in a day. The CPC had to fight for each and every kilometer of land.
Yes but they were very weak since the second sino-japanese war had just ended and they had been fighting the communists since the 1920's (correct me if im wrong) and in the start, the communists already had most of the Chinese industry occupied AND help from the Soviet Union, on top of that the communists were supported by the warlords. Should I add more?
@来自涂山 because this regime have been weaken in sino japanese war that kill 20+ million chinese civilian and nationalist soldier.Communist party just take advantage of this opportunity because they hid in their hideout,already occupied china industry and with the soviet support,they succeed but they ended up replacing a regime with another regime but a communist one.
@来自涂山 Similar thing happened in russia civil war where the Bolsheviks took advantage of weaken provisional government in ww1 by occupying russia important industry,took control most populated area and key city and with the help of the german empire.This played a huge factor in russia winning the civil war,so history repeat itself again I guess
Great video! It's so clear with this video to see the Siege of Changchun（长春围城）, more than 150 days of siege operation, which cost great number of civilian casualties (400,000 - 650,000 death), most of them starving to death.
@@chizhang4555 The KMT army of the Republic of China was hunting down Mao Zedong's Red Army in the mountains of Yan'an（延安）. Chiang Kai-shek was able to defeat the Red Army, but Chiang Kai-shek was arrested by the Red Army for internal betrayal. Then, the KMT army and the Red Army cooperated to fight the Japanese army. And after Japan surrendered to the Allies, the KMT army and Mao Zedong's Red Army returned to civil war. Originally KMT Chiang Kai-shek was anti-communist.

常凯申大统领当年签的中苏友好条约，把大连割出去了。
新中国后，中苏交恶和这个关系很大，苏联要在旅顺港驻军和中国成立联合舰队，被毛泽东骂回去，大连旅顺也就一并收回。

always wanted to see a video of such a wide format. I did not even know about many of the Kuomintang enclaves :)

The most detailed video I've ever seen. Incredible amount of work
Very interesting to see the KMT remnants in Xinjiang and Burma during the 1950s and early 1960s. I like how your videos show so much detail. Other videos tend to ignore these historical facts. Nice work!!!
Amazing work! Always been fascinated by this part of the history.
A minor mistake, the CPC general is Su Yu (粟裕), not Sun Yu
哈哈 張春橋

A huge mistake, Tibet had never been an independent state, even under the leadership of the corrupted loser KMT. By the way, CPC did not win KMT, CPC won the people.
@@lolpolitics3363 I think it is not intended that Tibet was independent, but that it was a region out control and was nertral during the civil war. Other war lords were controlled by KMT with different degrees, but Tibet at that time was not. The only thing it relied on KMT was that when it loss a war with neighbour war lords, it applied for KMT to intervene.
The same were Outer Mongolia and East Turkestan. Due to the international situation, the former got independence and the latter joined CPC regime. But Tibet, it had no strong support from foreigners as Outer Mongolia, so it was easily control by the new regime which was much more powerful than the corrupt KMT regime.
@@fio123 You did not do your homework about the real history well. KMT is a shitty party.
Pretty sure HK was not part of UK by June 2019
Yeah, that was an error he didn't notice
HK returned to China on 1997.07.01, while Marco returned in 1999.

@@s1050 The American and British imperialists were never replaced, just replaced with Chinese imperialists.
@@s1050 Yes because so many people in HK love the "freedom" that China is providing now huh?
This is one of your most popular videos for a reason, it’s detailed and amazing. I wonder how much time this took
I just want to say it's not easy to get these data and transfer the footage like this. how much time to spent for it? excellent artwork !
Nice work ! One thing more: the nationalist government have representative to Tibet region during that period . And Tibet ruled by Tibetian budism accepted such governing manner . So in history Tibet should not be in white colour in your map all the time. Personal view.
the colours show countries involved in the chinese communist revolution Tibet was a puppet state of the republic of china and that's why communist china end ups invading tibet cause it wasn't sure if tibet was more than just a puppet state then they realised or it was just a puppet but they kept the land cause they fought for it already and they left that's why there are no han chinese in there
@@gamers-xh3uc check Tibet history before 1949 after which ccp started to rule China. Nothing her relates to ccp. To most Chinese , Tibet was part a long time ago , even long long time before the creation of USA. Canada and australia and New Zealand where all there were aborigines only. Think abt all story. Nothing political view to ccp on this matter . Even Tibet was ruled by a kind of form kuomingdang party which ruled China as the nam of Republic of China. before 1949. Note this is not ccp’s People’s Republic of China which was after 1949. On google image search , you search “ Map of the Republic of China in 1917” you will see their rules border including Tibet. Ccp just inherited the whole integrity after defeating Kuomintang party in 1949. If you searched further Tibet even was part of Qing dynasty before 1900. Anyway when you talk abt other neighbors yard , you had better check the history their house sale and story before fingerpointing your neighbors

Well made and detailed Mapping video! I also liked how you added the Korean Civil War and India's annexation of the Princely states. Just one note though, the Philippines was under the US Commonwealth only until July 4, 1946 which was also the date it gained it's independence from the US. You showed the Philippines being under the Commonwealth until the early 1950s. Despite the error, this is perhaps the most detailed video about the Second Phase of the Civil War In China. Salute to you sir!
It's nice to have outside changes as it gives a context
After you've covered every era in modern Chinese history you need to string them all together into one video that goes from warlords-today. Actually never mind, not sure if youtube's servers can handle that much detail.
1945 and *B E Y O N D*
Small mistake. The civil war outbreak between June 1946 to the end of 1949。
3:27 Communist did not break negotiations. The KMT refused to resolve the issue peacefully.
This is amazingly detailed, on another level compared to other "every day" history videos. I wish someone did Russian Civil war with similar detail, but that might be a too big of a request because it is the most complex war in history.
You don't have to request it as I have already made a video on that:

The nationalist force should have fully withdraw from the Northeast region in late 1947 to prevent encirclement. It's one of the biggest military failure they made.

Fantastic work! really detailed. I didn't even know that there still some KMT power in the south west when the Korean War was going.
49年之后的西南剿匪还是很有名的
Great Video, as far as I know, there are still a few flaws:
1. CCP base of Ta-pieh Mountains should exist persistently after Aug. 1947.
2. Liu Wenhui, the Kang Clique revolted on Dec. 1949 to CCP, and PLA pushed from the east rather than north to his region.
3. The Kingdom of Sikkim was formally annexed by Indians at 1975 rather than 1950.
4. Maybe you forgot to remove the UK tag on HK after 1997.
THE KINGDOM OF SIKKIM WAS NOT ANNEXED, IT BECAME A PROTECTORATE OF INDIA IN 1950, OK ??

The US has a lot to do with the Kuomintang loosing. They could of done way more to support them, also the US getting involved in peace talks only allowed the PRC to reorganize and rearm.

Great work. Commenting for the algorithm
The Nationalists had US backing, the equipment, access to the country's wealth, and an overwhelming territorial advantage, and still they manage to lose. This also makes you appreciate the fact that modern China wasn't built in a day. The CPC had to fight for each and every kilometer of land.
Yes but they were very weak since the second sino-japanese war had just ended and they had been fighting the communists since the 1920's (correct me if im wrong) and in the start, the communists already had most of the Chinese industry occupied AND help from the Soviet Union, on top of that the communists were supported by the warlords. Should I add more?
@来自涂山 because this regime have been weaken in sino japanese war that kill 20+ million chinese civilian and nationalist soldier.Communist party just take advantage of this opportunity because they hid in their hideout,already occupied china industry and with the soviet support,they succeed but they ended up replacing a regime with another regime but a communist one.
@来自涂山 Similar thing happened in russia civil war where the Bolsheviks took advantage of weaken provisional government in ww1 by occupying russia important industry,took control most populated area and key city and with the help of the german empire.This played a huge factor in russia winning the civil war,so history repeat itself again I guess

Its interesting that the civil war started up again in 1945 when WWII was still going on, before Japan even surrendered.
