The Cultural Revolution was a disordered mass movement in the People's Republic of China. Mao Zedong hurled it in 1966, demanding that elitists were destabilization the government and Chinese society. The Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution initiated by Mao Zedong as part of China's social and political transformation in 1966, changed the cultural life in the country more than any other event since the assumption of power by the Communist Party.

The purpose of the Cultural Revolution was to speed up change and eliminate Western, capitalist influence.

What actually happened:

Mao Zedong began the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution (its official name) in 1966.  A big part of the program was the closing of China's schools, because Mao saw the majority of educators as bourgeois types who were failing to support the communist revolution.  The Cultural Revolution was an insistence on loyalty to communist party ideology.  

The Red Guard was formed, which was made up of high school and college students (no longer attending school, since schools were shut down).  These radicalized students became militants for Mao over against those whom he considered not revolutionary enough.  The Red Guard destroyed historical artifacts and writings of the of China's former culture.  They also attacked persons who were seen to be resisting Chairman Mao's permanent revolution.

How did mechanization of farm equiment lead to urbanization during the Industrial Revolution
RoseWind [281]

It reduced the demand for agricultural laborers, driving many of them to relocate to urban areas in search of employment.

<h3>What do you mean by urbanization?</h3>

Urbanization is the process by which cities develop and a rising proportion of the population moves there to live.

Urbanization has significantly increased as a result of the Industrial Revolution's technical expansion. The greater population density in compact locations allowed the new industries to access a vast pool of laborers, and the larger labor force allowed for ever-increasing specialization.

Urbanization and the rise of industrial economies were largely caused by mechanization.

If the japanese had not invaded china, what can you infer from the map would have been thhe Communists' ultimate fate in a final
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

The Communist would have been defeated

Explanation:

The Communist Party in China can comfortably say thank you to the Japanese because if it wasn't for their occupation, the Communists would have been destroyed. The Japanese attacked and invaded the parts of China that had the most resources and the most population, which accidentally was actually the home-ground of the Nationalists. The Japanese managed to weaken the Nationalist to such a degree that once they left, the Nationalist were relatively easily overtaken by the Communists. If Japan didn't invaded though, the Nationalist would have crushed the Communist, and the main reasons for that are that the Nationalists had much more resources, larger military forces, better equipment, and were much better off economically.
