wartime China

Wartime China, mainly during the 1930s and 1940s, was a period of intense conflict involving internal struggles like the Chinese Civil War and external invasions, notably by Japan. The country faced widespread violence, economic hardship, and social upheaval, as various factions vied for power and resistance against foreign aggression. Despite chaos, China also experienced significant efforts for modernization and national unity. This era ultimately led to the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949, marking a turning point in its history.
