Detailed explanation-1: -U.S. forces flew tens of thousands of Nationalist Chinese troops into Japanese-controlled territory and allowed them to accept the Japanese surrender. The Soviet Union, meanwhile, occupied Manchuria and only pulled out when Chinese Communist forces were in place to claim that territory.
Detailed explanation-2: -Why did support from people in the Chinese countryside help the Communists more than support from people in the cities helped the Nationalists? Many more people lived in the countryside, so they made the Communists the stronger side.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Communists gained control of mainland China and established the People’s Republic of China in 1949, forcing the leadership of the Republic of China to retreat to the island of Taiwan.
Detailed explanation-4: -Why did the Chinese peasants align themselves with the Communists rather than the Nationalists? The peasants believed that the leader of the Nationalist party wasn’t improving their lives so they supported the Communists, who i return for their support, gave conquered lands to farmers.
