The Americans were fighting in Korea during the end of World War II and the beginning of the Cold War when the Japanese had invaded China. This caused the Nationalist and Communist from China to shift back to their own homeland to try to get these foreign people in their country out and back to their own. China’s leaders were Mao Zedong (communist) and Chiang Kai-shek (nationalist). Chiang Kai-shek was from south China and well supported by the United States though when the U.S military came into encounterment with him they saw a different
man. They saw he wasn’t as nice as the United States had shown him to be, but that he was kind of corrupt when ruling. Mao Zedong was the other ruler from northern China. Zedong was the communist who held propaganda campaigns about national liberation. Most of the country fell into the support of Mao Zedong’s idea of communism because the natives felt he was doing more to help their country then Kai-shek was doing. China had finally gotten the Japanese out that had invaded, but issues still existed within the Chinese government. After many disagreements the communist government won which forced the nationalist to leave, but also hurt the United Stated because Truman was blamed for “losing” and not giving enough support to the Nationalist.
