      And I love the scene in that film where Dr Sun Yat Sen is telling the Western delegates at the lunch party that the pieces of food represent their feasting on China and saying, "Enjoy your meal Gentlemen, for this will be the last time you will be able to feast on China."

      ​@@luxembourgishempire2826as you might know, even today, China is a multiethnic state; in 1912, upon the abolition of the monarchy/Qing Dynasty, both, Mongolia, and Tibet began to separate themselves of what had been the Chinese/Qing Empire. Both, Russia, and the United Kingdom had long coveted Mongolia (Russia), and Tibet (the United Kingdom) as parts of China unde their (Russia's, and the United Kingdom's) spheres of influence; and, so, in 1913, Yuan Shikai, officially, let go of Mongolia, and Tibet, which , independently, entered under the influence of Russia, and the United Kingdom.

      No, the Communists were right. The Chinese bourgeoisie was unable to achieve their republican revolution. Decades after Sun Yat-Sen's death, China was still ruled by barbaric warlord-landlords and a fascist junta based in Nanking. Chiang Kai-shek executed and beheaded everyone within his party who was loyal to the Republican cause and sympathetic to the working class uprising led by the Communists. He also massacred ordinary people in order to grab the illegitimate power as the military dictator of China. He cracked down on the popular revolution which he cynically exploited, and led China into an era of imperialist invasions, mostly from Japan, which profoundly changed the landscape of Chinese politics. That was when people had had enough and supported the Communist side by landslide.

    Hallo Oscar. I enjoy your videos very much, especially the video about Stalin's Great Purge. Regarding the Fall of the Qing Dynasty, one woman was responsible for that, namely the Empress Dowager Cxi Cxi. She murdered at least two Emperors, one of whom introduced many reforms in the 1880s which would have turned China into a constitutional monarchy with an elected parliament.
