Abstract: Abstract China, stirring from a deep sleep, re-emerged as a true political and economic power based on its long history, vast lands and huge population. Most historians or political scientists and economists have a fragmentary view of Chinese history — that is, they believe modern China was born when the revolutionary movement’ initiated by Sun Yat-sen terminated the extreme corruption of the late Qing dynasty, and present-day China was founded by the Communist Party. This is a very narrow view. China is too complicated to be described in such a simple way.
