The Nationalist party
The Nationalist flag
The Nationalists come to power by overthrowing the Qing Dynasty in 1912, with Sun Yat-Sen as their leader. They ally with the Communists in 1923, but this dies when Yat-Sen does in 1925. After years and years of fighting, during the Chinese Civil War, the PLA, lead by Mao Zedong, beat the Nationalists and their reign comes to an end.
