Second Communist System

 NORTH KOREA
          North Korea is the prime example of an unstable country, they're spending millions on bombs while their people starve on the streets. North Korea wasn't always this crazy, it used to be friends with South Korea and they were one big happy country. They founded the Communist Party of Korea in 1925, bad that ended at the end of the very same year it started due to constant feuding. Before World War II, Japan was in control of Korea, but that changed after the Japanese surrendered at the end of World War II. Korea was split into two at the 38th parallel. The Soviets occupied the North and the US occupied the South. In 1945, the Soviets were governing North Korea until a USSR-friendly domestic regime would be established. The Provincial People's Committee for North Korea was established. The Soviets left in 1948, which is when North Korea became a Communist Nation, which it still is today.

Communism in China

    With over 1.3 billion people there, China, or, officially, The People's Republic of China, is the most populous  country on Earth. China become a Communist nation on October 1, 1949 when Mao Zedong gained control. This happened because the leader of the Nationalist party needed help when japan invaded, so he asked for Mao to step in. Mao did, and after beating the Japanese, he turned on the Nationalists, and the Chinese Communist Party seized power. 

        Shortly after China became Communist, they punished landlords for the crimes which they had committed against their peasants. Somewhere between one million and two million landlords were executed between 1949 and 1953. This allowed the peasants-who made up the largest section of society- to be rewarded for supporting communism while eliminating the potential threat of the landlords.

         Many changes occurred when China became Communist. Divorce was easier to get, forced marriages, polygamy, killing unwanted female babies and selling woman into prostitution were all banned. Private banks were shut down and a new state bank was established. 

         There were many Communist nations during World War II, but many of them later returned to their old governments. Today, there are only five communist nations, and China is one of them. Mao died in 1976, Deng Xiaoping seized power before Hua Guofeng could. He led China to economic reforms and lessened the governments control over people's personal lives. China went from being a planned economy to a mixed economy. On December 4, 1982, China adopted the constitution which it is still using today.
