From the historical changes
China experienced three historic changes in the 20th century:

The Revolution of 1911, the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC) and the reform and opening up after the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee. ?

1. The Revolution of 1911 overthrew the autocratic monarchy that ruled China for thousands of years, and made the idea of democratic republic deeply rooted in people's hearts. It greatly promoted the development of Chinese national capitalism, and "saving the country by industry" and "democratic republic" became the ideological trend of the society at that time. This period, as the "golden age" of the development of Chinese national capitalism, has been confirmed by historians. ?

2. The establishment of People's Republic of China (PRC) marked the birth of New China; The completion of the three major transformations has realized the transformation of the ownership of the means of production and the transformation of the nature, structure and function of the state power. The early completion of the first five-year plan laid a preliminary foundation for socialist industrialization. ?

3. After the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee, China implemented reform and opening up, and carried out changes in economic, political, educational and other systems and concepts around economic construction, which injected new vitality into the once-wandering socialist practice, and the activated productive forces showed the people and the world the great development potential of China's modernization. ?

Extended data:

The historical achievements of the Revolution of 1911 are indelible. It has at least two direct consequences:?

First, it destabilizes the reactionary ruling order in China. China feudal society had a head, and that was the emperor. He is the absolute authority of monopoly power and the center of gravity on which the reactionary ruling order relies to maintain stability. The revolution of 1911 cut off this head at once, and the whole reactionary rule was in chaos.

Since then, from the northern warlords to the Nanjing government, they have appeared one after another like a lantern, but they have never been able to establish a unified and stable ruling order. The great role played by the Revolution of 1911 here is undeniable. It opened the floodgates of China's progress and paved the way for the victory of China's people's revolution. ?

Secondly, it liberated the people of China ideologically. In the past, the emperor was supreme and inviolable, but now it can be overthrown, so all the stale things will be broken.

Once the floodgate of thought is opened, this surging wave of ideological emancipation will rush forward and be unstoppable. Although the political situation was still very sinister after the Revolution of 1911, people began to boldly seek new ways to save the country, and soon ushered in the May 4th Movement and the spread of Marxism, and began a new era in China's history. ?

Yuan Shikai expressed his loyalty to the Republic and became the "President of the Republic of China" when the Qing Dynasty collapsed, but his purpose was to replace the Qing emperor with the revolutionary hand. Once he thought he had gained a firm foothold, he immediately announced the abolition of the Republic, restored absolute monarchy and became emperor himself.

But history is irreversible. Yuan Shikai proclaimed himself emperor and soon failed under the opposition of the whole country. No one can erase all the changes brought about by the revolution. ?

Of course, the success of the Revolution of 1911 is limited after all. The rule of imperialism and feudalism in China is deeply rooted and cannot be overthrown by one or two shocks. The Revolution of 1911 failed to change the nature of China's semi-colonial and semi-feudal society. Sun Yat-sen's "republic" was frustrated, and the people's miserable situation remained the same.

192 1 year later, China * * * inherited Sun Yat-sen's unfinished business, strove forward, led the people of China to carry out a long-term and indomitable revolutionary struggle under the banner of new democracy, finally overthrew the three mountains that weighed on the people of China, loudly declared that "the people of China stood up from now on" and established People's Republic of China (PRC) (PRC), which is the real People's Republic. ?
