Chinese Communist Revolution

The difficult, year-long journey made by Mao Zedong and his Communist followers in 1934 through China's mountains, marshes, and rivers was called the

• Cultural Revolution

• Great Leap Forward

• Boxer Rebellion

• Long March

In the Chinese Civil War (1945 - 1949), support for Mao Zedong's Communist forces came primarily from the

• peasants

• landowners

• industrialists

• Confucian scholars

The French Revolution, the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia, and the Communist Revolution in China were similar in that all three

• brought about few political changes

• were influenced by the peasants' desire for more land

• were inspired by Marxism

• were supported primarily by the nobility

What was a major reason for the Communist victory in the Chinese civil war (1949)?

• The Nationalists had been supported by the Japanese.

• Many Chinese warlords supported the Communists.

• The Communists had superior military equipment.

• The Communists promised land to the peasants.

During the Communist-Nationalist civil war, Chiang Kai-shek lost the support of the Chinese people mainly because he

• refused to accept support from foreign nations

• defeated the forces of Deng Xiaoping

• signed an alliance with Great Britain

• ignored the needs of the peasant population

What was an immediate result of the Great Leap Forward (1958)?

• independence of Kenya from Great Britain

• the breakup of the Soviet Union

• the relocation of Bosnian refugees

• increased famine in China

One similarity between Stalin’s five-year plans and Mao Zedong’s Great Leap Forward was that both programs attempted to

• increase industrial production

• privatize the ownership of land

• correct environmental pollution

• strengthen international trade

In China the terms "Long March," "Little Red Book," and "Great Leap Forward" are most closely associated with the

• economic policies of the Kuomintang

• expulsion of foreigners during the Boxer Rebellion

• foreign policy under Deng Xiaoping

• leadership of Mao Zedong

One similarity between the Reign of Terror during the French

Revolution and the Cultural Revolution in China was that both

• limited the power of absolute leaders

• illustrated the power of public opinion in forming national

  policy

• established social stability and economic growth

• used violent methods to eliminate their opponents

One way in which the Hitler Youth of Germany and the Red Guard of China are similar is that both organizations

• required unquestioning loyalty to the leader

• helped increase religious tolerance

• hindered imperialistic goals

• led pro-democracy movements
