What event ended the Cultural Revolution?

The Cultural Revolution, initiated by Mao Zedong in 1966, effectively ended with Mao's death in 1976. Following his passing, the Chinese Communist Party shifted towards a more pragmatic approach under the leadership of Deng Xiaoping. The arrest of the Gang of Four, who were key figures in perpetuating the revolution, in October 1976 further marked the end of the era, leading to a denouncement of the Cultural Revolution's excesses and a focus on economic reform.


What was so significant about the historical Chinese politicians labeled as the Gang of Four and why were they so hated?

The primary reason that the Gang of Four were significant was that they were purported to have engineered many of the violent excesses of the Cultural Revolution. The Cultural Revolution was a period in Chinese history where around 80 million Chinese were either murdered by the government or died through starvation and misallocation of resources. Additionally, there was a climate of fear specifically because the reason for the aforementioned government murders was failure to achieve mental conformity with the regime. Since those four individuals were deemed responsible for the Cultural Revolution, they were immensely hated.
