 | | The imperial system in China ended with the establishment of the Republic of China (ROC) under Sun Yat-sen in 1912; however, the next four decades of ROC rule were marred by warlord control, the Second Sino-Japanese War (WWII), and the Chinese Civil War which pitted Chinese Nationalists against the Communist forces. | | | The CPC established a communist state—the People's Republic of China—that laid claim to be the successor state of the Republic of China. | | | China was the third nation to launch a person into orbit. |

| | In post-Mao China, the discipline of historiography has not been separated from politics, although a much greater range of historical topics has been discussed. | | | Their investigations included not only historical study of traditional China but penetrating inquiries into modern Chinese history and the history of the Chinese Communist Party. | | | This trend was consistent with the party's commitment to "seeking truth from facts." As a result, historians and social scientists raised probing questions concerning the state of historiography in China. |

| | China, which has now outlawed the sect, was thought to consider the apolitical spiritual group threatening because its numbers exceeded the membership of the Chinese Communist Party. | | | China remained largely isolated from the rest of the world's civilizations, closely restricting foreign activities. | | | The invasion of Tibet and a perceived rivalry for the leadership of the world Communist movement caused a serious souring of relations between China and the USSR, former allies. |

| | This is chiefly responsible for the absence of a dominant priesthood and also for that lack of important religious buildings which has so much astonished travellers, inasmuch as the Chinese were probably civilised as early as the Egyptians, who, mainly owing to their strong religious beliefs, erected temples and tombs unequalled in grandeur. | | | The Chinese point to Fu-hi (B.C. 2800) as the first emperor who evolved social order out of chaos ; while to his immediate successors are ascribed the development of agriculture, the invention of hieroglyphs, the building of temples and planning of cities. | | | Chinese belief in life after death was expressed by means of sacrifices to the spirits of the departed, and indeed ancestor worship led to such veneration for graves that the Chinese will plough around them for generations rather than be guilty of the sacrilege of disturbing them. |
