Communism Timeline

Since the American government has such a huge impact on the African culture, why can't they say ANYTHING about the Chinese culture? Oh yeah, Africa's government is pointless while Chinese government are communists. If you want my opinion Mr. Blog, I would say that the blame for their communist government is Mao Zedong. Mao Zedong is the man who formed the Communist Party of China in 1949 (even thought communism was widely practiced since 1921, it was never official). He claimed that there was not enough form or structure within the Chinese government. Immediately after the declaration, China entered the Korean War. Events started building up year after year because of Zedong; because of him, the Chinese experienced the Great Leap Forward policy, widespread hunger as a result of the Great Leap Forward policy, the Cultural Revolution, the Red Guards taking control of the local government, and him finally dying. As the years go on, the Chinese struggle with the fight for independence because their government officials only become more and more asinine. In 1994 China was criticized for human rights abuses and lost the bid to host the Year 2000 Olympics. Obviously China has more going on than the One-Child Policy, but the OCP is the most outstanding problem within their country, yet the most overlooked problem in their country. Even during my research, it is next to impossible to find any information in regards to when this policy came about, who started it, and why it was started (other than overpopulation means). This is how overlooked the One-Child Policy is and how desperately it needs to be reformed. Americans could do a better job at at least making it known within our society.
