4 0

The CIA wanted to destabilize the Chilean government because in 1970, Salvador Allende was elected president. Allende was the first Marxist to become president of a Latin American country. Since the beginning of his political career, Allende always had a close relationship with the Chilean Communist Party. He kept close contact with Cuba and this scared the U.S. government. The Nixon administration continued to support Allende's opponents in the Chilean Congress and the CIA and the US State Department officials were ordered to put pressure on the Allende government.

Which of the following lists in the correct chronological order the creation of the following Chinese groups? A. United League,

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer: A. United League, GMD, CCP

Explanation:

Tongmenghui or The United League in English was founded in 1905 by Sun Yat-sen and others as a result of a merger between different Chinese revolutionary groups and was formed with the aim of ending the Chinese Empire and initiating a republican government that would be fairer on its people.

The Guomindang (GMD) or Kuomintang as it is popularly known, was the successor to the United League and was originally founded in 1912 by Sun Yat-sen but was dissolved the following year before being reformed in 1919. After being expelled from mainland China in 1949, they took over Taiwan and governed it as a single party state until 1986. They remain a strong opposition party there today.

The CCP or the Chinese Communist Party is the current governing and only main party in the People's Republic of China. Founded in 1921 by Chen Duxiu and Li Dazhao, they endured several hardships under the GMD but under the leadership of Mao Zedong finally won the Chinese Civil War in 1949 and expelled the GMD from mainland China.
