Chinese cultural revolution?

The Chinese Civil War ( Jiefang Zhanzheng; literally "Revolutionary War"), which lasted from April 1927 to May 1950, was a civil war in China between the Kuomintang (KMT or Chinese Nationalist Party) and the Chinese Communist Party (CPC). The war began in 1927, after the Northern Expedition. The war represented an ideological split between the Western-supported Nationalist KMT, and the Soviet-supported Communist CPC. The civil war carried on intermittently until the looming Second Sino-Japanese War interrupted it, resulting in an organized and temporary Chinese resistance to the Japanese invasion. The Japanese assault and occupation was an opportunistic attack made possible by China's own state of internal turmoil. Japan's campaign was defeated in August, 1945 by the Allies, marking the end of World War II, and China's full-scale civil war resumed in 1946. Hostilities ended after 23 years in 1950, with an unofficial cessation of major hostilities, with the CPC controlling mainland China (including Hainan Island) and the KMT restricted to their remaining territories of Taiwan, Pescadores, and the several outlying Fujianese islands. To this day, no official armistice has ever been signed, although the two sides have close economic ties.

What is the system of land use control in China?

What is the system of land use control? China is one of the most populated countries in the world. Until September 2006, per capita cultivated land is 1.4 mu (1 ha=15 mu). This means that China has to feed on 1.3 billion population (about 20% of population of world) with the agricultural production of 7% of the land of world. Worse, as China is emerging a new industrialized country, more and more cultivated land is converted to the construction of office buildings, industry complex, condominiums or infrastructure. Another side product of industrialization is the deterioration of environment and this further reduces cultivated land. In order to control the reduction of cultivated land, China adopts the system of land use control. In China, land is categorized as agricultural land, construction land or unused land for different uses from the use purpose of standpoint. Agricultural land means land that may directly be used for agricultural purposes, which includes cultivated land, forest land, grassland, land for water irrigation and land for aquatic cultivation. Construction land means land that may be used to construct buildings, which includes land for construction of urban and rural housing and public facilities, land for mining, land for traffic and water irrigation facilities, land for tourism and land for military facilities. Unused land means land that has not yet been used for agriculture or construction. Further, land for construction is categorized as collective construction land and state construction land. If the land user wants to change the land use purpose, for example, from agricultural land to construction land, approval from government authorities is required.

Closely following are Taiwan, South Korea, Netherlands, and, amazingly, India, which is pretty incredible given the size of the country and the number of huge cities, with a hyperdense countryside...
