The Aztecs and the Mayans were two ancient societies in Meso America. The Mayan civilization goes back to about 1800-2000 BC and was in decline when the Spaniards arrived whereas the Aztecs were a much younger civilization that was at its peak when Cortez arrived. The Aztecs were located mostly in what is now Mexico whereas the Mayans were more in what is now Guatemala and Honduras. Both the Aztecs and Mayans believed in human sacrifice but the Aztecs did this much more than the Mayans. While the Aztecs layed out their cities according to celestial observances, the Mayans were more scientific and developed a calendar very similar to our modern calendar. The Aztecs had one supreme ruler whereas the Mayans had many city states like Uxmal in Guatemala and Copan in Honduras with local rulers.

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.
