Imperialism
greatly weakened and exploited China, a proud people and the land of dynasties and empires
herself. The long term occupation, exploitation and humiliation at the hands of European and
the Japanese empires, I believe, gave rise to the communist movement under Mao-Tse-Tung, or at
least gave it momentum and opportunity. In this way we can say that modern communist China is a
direct result of imperialist wars and policies in the 1800s and 1900s.
