Mao Zedong Hero or Villain?!
Through out all of history we have seen so many heroes and villains all over the world. But one place in particular was in China, with a leader who goes by the name of Mao Zedong. Mao Zedong was a well-known communist leader in china who actually lead the Chinese Communist Party. He is one of the most important people/historical figures in history. At first he was helping China at the beginning of his ruling, nut then his actions had cause China to completely fall and breakout into violence and complete chaos!! Changing the views of his people because whatever good he had done did not matter anymore from his great down fall. During his ruling though some believed that Mao was a hero others believed he was a villain, but which one was he? In my opinion after all the facts I have discovered I truly believe Mao Zedong was a Villain! He led china into an economic downfall and killed over 78 million people, that is more than the amount of people Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler combined! When Mao Zedong first began he was very well known in china \ as a great revolutionary and a military leader/mastermind, Mao Zedong had led the communist party of China to victory against the nationalist party in the Chinese Civil war. And after he set his policies in play Mao Zedong had officially transformed China into a major world power when he first started ruling. However, Mao Zedong made quite a few “errors” or mistakes while he was leading the country of China. One of his major errors was “The Great Leap Forward” and also the “Cultural Revolution” which had caused major disaster in China. The Great Leap Forward was a social plan used from the years 1958 to 1961 which used China’s massive population to quickly change China from a peasant farming economy into a modern communist society. And during the process of the Great Leap Forward Communes were built/set up during time. It was a way to manage and control
