What is the difference between China's 2nd Five Year Plan and the Great Leap Forward?

China's Second Five-Year Plan (1958-1962) aimed to rapidly industrialize the economy and improve agricultural output through collective farming and state control. In contrast, the Great Leap Forward (1958-1962), which was part of this plan, sought to achieve an even more accelerated transformation by mobilizing the population to create large-scale communes and increase steel production. However, the Great Leap Forward led to widespread famine and economic disruption, resulting in millions of deaths, while the Second Five-Year Plan was more focused on structured economic development. Ultimately, the Great Leap Forward's radical approach proved disastrous compared to the more measured goals of the broader plan.

So there will be an 8 year period for that leap year. 2096 is a leap year, 2100 is not, 2104 is, so there is the 8 years. By the way, anyone born on February 29 is known as a Leapling.
