This is the video made by Jack and Sophie. In 1966 Mao initiated the Cultural Revolution, the end of the Revolution was in 1976. These ten years have had a great impact on China. Some people say that these ten years have ruined China’s development. I learned many things from this lesson, for example, I knew who is  “Gang of Four” and I knew what some bad things that Mao did before.

October 1, 1949, at 2:00 p.m, the new China was born.  At that time people were very happy, partly because of the Anti-Japanese War, and partly because people thought they could lead a good life.  That history is not often mentioned in China and is only partially covered in history classes. But it is one of China’s most important histories. That history has its dark parts and its good parts, and the following video will answer all your questions.
