What was the result of new leadership and continued communism in China?

Answer:The Communist Party of China was founded in 1921, during the May Fourth Movement, which Mao Zedong referred to as the birth of communism in China.

Explanation:After a period of slow growth and alliance with the Kuomintang (Chinese Nationalist Party), the alliance broke down and the Communists fell victim in 1927 to a purge carried out by the Kuomintang under the leadership of Chiang Kai-shek.[11] After 1927, the Communists retreated to the countryside and built up local bases throughout the country and continued to hold them until the Long March.
