The Chinese Communist revolution began with small acts of guerrila warfare shortly after the Russian Revolution of 1917 However, in the 1930's the Communists were outnumbered 60 to one by the nationalists, and it was still very much a small resistance force. Most peoples' lives were not affected by the Civil War at that time. In 1931 the Japanese invaded, and the Communists allied temporarily with the Nationalists to combat the Japanese, although sporadic fighting between the groups continued. But in 1945, the Chinese Civil War (or Communist Revolution) began in earnest, complete with field armies, pitched battles, and stormed cities. The last Nationalist troops left the mainland in retreat for Taiwan in 1949, though they are still at war in name to this day. According to Mao Zedong the revolution will continue until Taiwan is part of China and both are pure Communist societies, but in practice any "revolutionary action" (such as the Great Preletarian Cultural Revolution of the '60s) ceased with Mao's death in 1976.
