The Significance of the Establishment of New China

First, end the semi-colonial and semi-feudal history and realize national independence.

Since the Opium War in 1840, China has gradually become a semi-colonial and semi-feudal country, and has been bullied and oppressed by foreign powers. 1949 The founding of New China marked the end of the days when China people were oppressed, and China people had their own right to be their own masters. At the same time, the establishment of the new China marked an unprecedented great victory in China's anti-imperialism, anti-feudalism and anti-bureaucracy.

Second, with the victory of the new-democratic revolution, the people became the masters of the country.

Before the founding of New China, China experienced a long-term democratic revolution, including opposing feudal rule, imperialist aggression and bureaucratic capitalist exploitation. The establishment of the new China means the victory of the new democratic revolution, and the people overthrew the three mountains and became the masters of the country. This is a turning point in the history of China, which has opened up a new road for the development of China.
