" History is the best textbook and the best dose of sobriety.

The victory of the Chinese People's War of Resistance against the Japanese Aggression was the first complete victory of China in modern times. It was the historical turning point at which the Chinese nation steps into the course of the great rejuvenation from the deep crisis since modern times, and it laid a solid foundation for CPC to rally and lead the people of all ethnic groups in achieving national independence, liberation of the people, and the establishment of new China."
