From the Paper:

"The fall of the Manchu dynasty in China led to a civil war of epic proportions. The chief protagonists were the Guomindang (Nationalist Party) and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). In 1936 a cease-fire was called to deal with the Japanese invasion, however civil war returned in 1946. Despite support from the US and USSR and an army four times the size of that of the CCP, Beijing fell in January 1949 and the nationalist government fled to Taiwan."
