China And Xinjiang Ethnic And Political Overview Practice Test

Which party retreated to Taiwan after losing the Chinese Civil War?

Kuomintang Chinese Communist Party Democratic Progressive Party Green Party

Correct Answer:

Kuomintang

Explanation:

This item tests knowledge of what happened to the main political forces after the Chinese Civil War and where they ended up. After the Communist victory on the mainland, the Kuomintang, led by Chiang Kai-shek, withdrew to Taiwan in 1949 and continued to govern there as the Republic of China. Meanwhile, the Chinese Communist Party established the People's Republic of China on the mainland. The Democratic Progressive Party is a Taiwan-based party that emerged later and did not relocate after the war, and the Green Party is not the party involved in this historical event. So the party that retreated to Taiwan is the Kuomintang.
