china'mao = hitler/stalin

The only reason I wouldn't include Mao is that I wanted to include Lenin.

Lenin would deff. be a great choice, he was a good leader, much better than Stalin.

Mao and Lenin both had a great vision of the future; Lenin died before he made Russia great, Mao's work wasn't ocntinued by the next leader so China never became the Communist state Mao wanted.

All commies know that a country doesn't become a successful communist state before a (1) violent revolution, (2) rule by a dictator, and (3) a lot of time.

Changing a society takes time, and the heirs of Lenin and Mao didn't want to keep on working towards the Marxist vision.

Rebuilding a huge nation like Russia or China after a long and bloody war is not easy, it would be unreasonable to expect the already poor countries recover immidiately a huge war. Lenin and Mao didn't have time to rebuild the economy, but they did unite the nation.

Understand that even now that Russia is democratic it is not any better off than it was during the communist era. It is still poor and crappy. China is doing better economically and it is communist. Maybe Mao and Lenin were right about communism...
 
Just so you know, Presently China has a pretty capitalist economy with a communist Government. And as the PBS documentary said. In about 10 -15 years we will know if this is possible. If it is then China will be an even bigger powerhouse, or they still can be if the government does get overthrown. But if the communists start loosing power, they will mostlikely stop the capitalist economy. But who knows. It is impossible to guess what the future will be like. It always has a few unforseen bumbs and potholes in the way.
 
I still think there should be multiple leaderheads to select from.
 
Mao is good for a leader because he was a strong personality not because his reign was that positive for China.Some would say that Hitler also was but I don't agree he was just a psycho.He couldn't even take his punishment and killed himself when he saw that he was losing the war.And he was also very stupid because he attacked Russia and got what he deserved.After all it's not that wise to fight several Super powers at once even if you're one yourself.And Stalin was good for the same reason as Mao.I don't understand why they switched to Catherine,Stalin represents Russia far better then her.Not that I like him but he was just better.
 
Maybe it's because STALIN WAS NEVER AN ETHNIC RUSSIAN. He just ruled (as a true psycho killer) the Soviet Union.
 
Niether is Catherine.
