Question 7 • World History

As Chinese leader, what did Mao Zedong accomplish?

Answer
A
He seized control of Taiwan from Chiang Kai-shek.
B
He systematically dismantled the Nationalist Party.
C
He redistributed land in the countryside to farmers.
D
He helped owners regain control of their businesses.

Explanation

After the Communists won control of mainland China in 1949, Mao’s government carried out land reform in the countryside. Land was taken from landlords and redistributed to peasants, so the correct choice is “He redistributed land in the countryside to farmers.” Mao did not seize Taiwan; Chiang Kai-shek and the Nationalists retreated there.
