	The government of the People's Republic of China is rooted in [[Mao Zedong Thought]], the application of Marxism-Leninism to the conditions of China in the 1930s.

The reasoning for this is a concept developed by Mao known as the "[[mass line]]" where the vanguard is meant to pay attention to the needs and wants of the people.<ref name=":0" />		The government of the People's Republic of China is rooted in [[Mao Zedong Thought]], the application of Marxism-Leninism to the conditions of China in the 1930s.

	{~~{HXG}~~}		'''China''', officially the '''People's Republic of China''' ('''PRC'''), is a [[socialist state]] in [[Asia]] currently led by the [[Communist Party of China]] (CPC). It is one of the few remaining [[Marxism-Leninism\|Marxist-Leninist]] states in the world. It is currently leading the way towards a [[Multipolarity\|multipolar]] global arrangement.

			The PRC was founded in 1949 by [[Mao Zedong]], then head of the CPC, after the over two-decades long [[Chinese Civil War]] that had been raging since 1927.<ref name=":0">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpOzT7alVK8 How does China work?]</ref> Since then, it has been one of the most successful [[Socialism\|socialist]] experiments in the world as it continues to thrive economically to this day. It is estimated that China could economically surpass the [[United States]], the most economically powerful country in the world since [[World War II]], by the year 2030.<ref>[https://www.voanews.com/amp/chinas-economy-could-overtake-us-economy-by-2030/6380892.html China’s Economy Could Overtake US Economy by 2030]</ref>
			==History==
			===Century of Humilation===
			The [[century of humilation]] was a time period in Chinese history prior to the formation of the PRC in 1949 when the Chinese people, who lived mostly an [[Agriculture\|agrarian]] lifestyle per the time, were oppressed and exploited by foreign [[Imperialism\|imperialists]].<ref name=":0" /> The CPC was founded in 1921 during this time period, committing its platform to the fight for [[democracy]].<ref>[http://www.news.cn/english/2021-12/04/c_1310351231.htm China: Democracy That Works]</ref>
			====Chinese Civil War (1927-1949)====
			The Chinese Civil War was a period of constant turmoil and civil war in China from 1927-1949 between the Communist Party of China, led then by Mao Zedong, and the [[national bourgeoise]] against the [[Kuomintang]] (KMT)-led government of China that was supported by the international imperialist [[bourgeoisie]].<ref name=":0" />
			===Modern China (1976-present)===
			Since [[Xi Jinping]] became President of the People's Republic of China in 2013, the Chinese government has been working on major [[Poverty alleviation in China\|poverty alleviation]] efforts. On April 22, 2019 Xi Jinping made an effort to inspect these poverty alleviation efforts in order to make sure things were going accordingly. According to his investigation, over 80 million Chinese citizens had been lifted from poverty since the year 2012.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-WySUJKPGE&list=PLsCaI-gsA29xVYzFI-kYWLcx2QhowNBCL&index=2 <nowiki>[REUPLOAD READ DESCRIPTION] American REACTS To Chinese Media on Poverty!</nowiki>]</ref><ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-d5CriKhRVA President Xi inspects poverty alleviation achievements in SW China]</ref> In 2020, that number increased to 100 million.<ref>[https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202101/1211616.shtml China sheds light on global poverty eradication]</ref>
			==Politics==
			===Government structure===
			The government of the People's Republic of China is rooted in [[Maoism]], an extension of Marxism-Leninism applied to the conditions of China. Maoist theory makes the [[Vanguardism\|vanguard party]] running the Chinese government not just made up of [[Proletariat\|proletarians]], but also of [[Intellectualism\|intellectuals]] and [[Peasantry\|peasants]]. The reasoning for this is a concept developed by Mao known as the "[[mass line]]" where the vanguard is meant to pay attention to the needs and wants of the people.<ref name=":0" />

			The Chinese government is structured into four layers. The lowest layer is a [[commune]], where the average proletarian lives and works. The second layer is a [[municipality]] and a collection of municipalities makes up a [[province]]. Provinces are then subordinate to the national government of the PRC, which is run by the [[State Council of the People's Republic of China]]. All communes, municipalites, and provinces are led by a local head of government and a [[Party Committee Secretary]] from the CPC.<ref name=":0" />

			The State Council is made up of ministers that are selected by the [[National People's Congress]] (NPC), the democratically-elected parliament of China. The State Council meets once every six months, the [[Standing Committee of the State Council of the People's Republic of China]] to do their job temporarily when they are not in session. The members of the Standing Committee are selected by the State Council.<ref name=":0" />

			Members of the NPC, on the other hand, are elected through a process of [[parliamentary democracy]] that goes through all four layers of the Chinese government. The Chinese citizens elect members of a congress to function as a government in their local commune, whom then select municipal congress members, whom then select provincal congress members, whom then select the members of the NPC. The NPC is the largest democratic body in the world by membership, consisting of almost 3,000 delegates that are elected for five-year terms. It can enact laws, update and enforce the [[Constitution of the People's Republic of China]], appoint members of the State Council, and elect the President and [[Vice President]]. The NPC also controls the [[People's Liberation Army]] and the [[High Court]]. The NPC only meets two weeks per year, leaving the [[Standing Committee of the National People's Congress]] to do its job when not in session. The Standing Committee of the NPC has ~170 members and is selected from members of the NPC.<ref name=":0" />

			There are some exceptions to this layout of how the Chinese government functions, however. For example, [[Autonomous region\|autonomous regions]] like [[Xinjiang]] and [[special economic zones]] like [[Qingdao]] have different rules based on their special statuses.<ref name=":0" />
