Answer: The Communists gained control of mainland China and established the People's Republic of China (PRC) in 1949, forcing the leadership of the Republic of China to retreat to the island of Taiwan.

Explanation: The Long March was when Mao and his 100,000 followers fled to Guomindang and they trekked 6,000 miles and they faced daily attacks. Out of the 100,000 followers only 20,000 survived. The Long March was a symbol of Communist heroism and the march attracted many more followers to Mao.
