On the revival of the Chinese nation from the modern history of China. .
Since modern times, the Chinese nation has experienced a rare disaster in the world. The First Opium War, the Second Opium War, the Sino-French War, the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, Eight-Nation Alliance's war of aggression against China, and so on, all ended in failure in China, and the more they lost, the worse they got, which made the mountains and rivers of the motherland fragmented. The signing of hundreds of unequal treaties, such as treaty of nanking, Peking Treaty, treaty of shimonoseki, and Xin Chou Treaty, led to the loss of national sovereignty, the dismemberment of territory, the plundering of infinite wealth, and the misery of the broad masses of people in China, which made patriots cry out with indignation, "400 million people shed tears, where is China in the end of the world?"

Facing the crisis of national subjugation and extinction, realizing national rejuvenation has become the most urgent common dream of China people. After the First Opium War, Lin Zexu, Wei Yuan and others looked around the world and advocated "learning from foreigners to control foreigners", and began an early exploration of the country's future and national destiny. However, this idea is high and low, and there are few respondents. After the Second Opium War, Zeng Guofan, Li Hongzhang, Zuo, Zhang Zhidong, etc. Advocating "Chinese style and western use", initiated and promoted the Westernization Movement of "self-improvement" and "seeking wealth". However, the failure of the Sino-Japanese War and the signing of treaty of shimonoseki "shattered" their dreams. After the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, Kang Youwei, Liang Qichao and others promoted the reform and political reform, but ended up in the tragic situation of wyndell dichinson Caishikou, the six gentlemen of the 1898 Movement. 1894, Sun Yat-sen founded the Zhong Xing Club in Honolulu, and issued the cry of "rejuvenating China" for the first time. 19 1 1 The Revolution of 1911 was a bourgeois democratic revolution in a relatively complete sense, which opened the floodgates for the development and progress of the Chinese nation. However, the restoration of Yuan Shikai and the scuffle between the northern warlords made the Revolution of 1911 finally fail. After the Revolution of 1911, hundreds of political parties appeared in China. However, they did not put forward a correct program and did not assume the historical responsibility of saving the nation from peril and promoting its progress.

Only China can save China and shoulder the historical responsibility of national rejuvenation. 192 1 The establishment of China was an epoch-making event, and the struggle of the people of China against imperialism and feudalism had a new strong leadership in modern times. During the Great Revolution, * * * took an active part in the Northern Expedition, and extensively carried out the workers' and peasants' movements, which expanded the influence of the Party and publicized its ideas. 1927, Kuomintang reactionaries betrayed the revolution and raised an evil butcher knife to the people and the revolutionary masses. However, the people of China were not intimidated by blood, did not forget their responsibilities to the country and the nation, and resolutely assumed the heavy responsibility of leading the China revolution independently. With the gunfire of Nanchang Uprising on August 1st and the ignition of a single spark in Jinggangshan, China * * * has found a brand-new way to realize national progress and national rejuvenation in the direction of socialism. After the outbreak of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the contradiction between Japanese imperialism and the Chinese nation further rose to become the main contradiction in China society. China * * * put forward and actively promoted the second cooperation with the Kuomintang at the critical moment of national disaster, forming the most extensive anti-Japanese national united front. After eight years of bloody fighting, the people of China won a great victory in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression is the first anti-aggression war and national liberation war that the people of China have completely won since the Opium War, which has promoted the awakening and unity of the Chinese nation and is a turning point in the re-emergence of the Chinese nation. Through War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, China initially abolished many privileges seized by foreign powers through unequal treaties with China in modern times, and its status as a great power formed in the world anti-fascist war was initially established. China's role as a mainstay in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression will surely go down in the glorious history of the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, people all over the country hope to live a peaceful, stable and tranquil life, and hope that the country and nation will become stronger from now on. After four years of arduous war of liberation, China led the broad masses of people to establish a new China under the people's democratic dictatorship, which made the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation stand at a new historical starting point.
