1 STUDY GUIDE REVIEW 1/11/2017

2 1. DEFINE NATIONALISM

3

4 2. DESCRIBE THE GREAT LEAP FORWARD INCLUDING ITS RESULT ON THE PEOPLE OF CHINA

5 -The GLF was Mao s attempt to modernize China. They needed to catch up with the rest of the world. While it seemed like it was working at first, it resulted in millions of people dying.

6 3. DESCRIBE COMMUNISM S IMPACT ON CHINA IN THE LATE 1900 S.

7 - It moved China s government away from the dynasty (monarchy) system that was thousands of years old. Eventually, this fell into civil war between the communists and the capitalists. The communists came to power and they still control China today.

8 4. FROM WHICH COUNTRY DID VIETNAM TRY TO GAIN INDEPENDENCE?

9 -France

10 5. WHICH LEADER WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR ESTABLISHING COMMUNISM IN CHINA?

11 -Mao Zedong

12 6. HOW DID NATIONALISM INFLUENCE THE COUNTRIES OF VIETNAM AND INDIA?

13 -Both nations used nationalism as the main cause for their fight for independence. India was controlled by the British Empire (UK) and Vietnam was controlled by the French Empire. Nationalism led to the rise of freedom fighters like Gandhi and Ho Chi Minh.

14 7. DESCRIBE THE CULTURAL REVOLUTION AND ITS EFFECTS

15 -Mao was losing power over the communist party and China overall. He started the Cultural Revolution to help grow support for himself and eliminate his enemies. It resulted in thousands of young people starting the People s Liberation Army which killed hundreds of thousands of doctors, lawyers, teachers, etc.

16 8. DEFINE THE DOMINO THEORY

17 -The fear of the Domino Theory was the United States main reason for entering the Vietnam Conflict. We were afraid that if one country fell to communism then all the country s around them would begin to fall to communism (like dominos).

18 9. DESCRIBE THE EVENTS AT TIANANMEN SQUARE AND EXPLAIN HOW IT IMPACTED THE PEOPLE OF CHINA.

19 -The Tiananmen Square Protest started as a huge group of college students mourning for a pro-democracy professor that had passed away. They turned the funeral into a protest, asking the government for democracy. However the government attacked the students, firing weapons and bringing in tanks. These attacks killed thousands, but eventually helped bring democracy. (Think of it like the Boston Tea Party for China)

20 10. IDENTIFY THE IMPORTANCE OF GANDHI

21 -Gandhi was the pro-nationalist leader of India s Independence movement. He was important because he showed that you could have results through peace and non-violent protest. He greatly influenced many people around the world, including Martin Luther King, Jr.

22 11. WHY DID THE UNITED STATES SEND ARMED FORCES TO SUPPORT SOUTH VIETNAM DURING THE 1960S AND EARLY 1970S?

23 -Because we were trying to contain communism and stop the Domino Theory. We were supporting the democratic, capitalist South Vietnam and opposing the communism North Vietnam

24 12. NUMBER THE EVENTS IN THE CORRECT ORDER

25 _ _

26 13. WHAT DO THE GLF, THE CULTURAL REVOLUTION, AND THE TIANANMEN SQUARE PROTEST HAVE IN COMMON?

27 -They all occur in China, they impact the people more than the government, and people died in all three, etc.

28 14. WHAT ROLE DID THE US PLAY IN THE REBUILDING OF JAPAN AFTER WW2?

29 -We eliminated many of the war criminals of WW2, we made them abolish their military, made them become a democracy with a new constitution, we controlled the country for ~15 years, and we helped rebuild their businesses and homes.

30 15. HOW WAS VIETNAM S IND. ATTEMPT DIFFERENT FROM INDIA S?

31 -Vietnam was engaged in war over almost 40 years (French, Americans, and Civil War), but India achieved independence through with non-violence.

32 16. DESCRIBE THE GOVERNMENT OF INDIA

33 -It is the world s largest democracy in population. They have a representative body (like US Congress), a Prime Minister (like the US President), and a Supreme Court (like us).

34 17. DEFINE SPECIALIZATION AND PROVIDE AN EXAMPLE IN SE ASIA

35 Specialization is the process a country learns about what they can make the best. America is most specialized to make things like airplanes and medicine because our citizens are very well educated and can learn the specialized skills for that. Currently, in China and Vietnam they are most specialized for producing goods like shoes, plastics, and home goods. Japan specializes in making electronics and high tech equipment.

36 18. IN WHICH 2 COUNTRIES DO ABOUT 1/3 OF THE WORLD S POPULATION LIVE?

37 -India and China

38 20. WHY HAS CHINA SEEN A LOT OF GROWTH IN GDP OVER THE LAST DECADE?
