There were many important historical events in the history of China, however, I believe that one of the most significant historical events is that the founding of the People’s Republic of China in 1949 by Mao. There are two reasons I think this is the most significant event in Chinese history.

Firstly, the founding of “New” China gave the people a peaceful life. In almost every country around the world, a peaceful life is just one of or the most important thing in a country. Nobody wants to live in a place that is full of conflicts and even war, and the founding of the People’s Republic of China truly ended those physical conflicts and even war between the parts in China.

The second thing I want to mention is that because of the founding of the “New” China, China itself got the opportunity to grow economy and develop the technology. This is also very significant because it is tied to the first reason in someways. The people will only get a more peaceful and great life when the place of the country they are living in is strong.
