It was assumed by me that Mao Zedong would follow as the Leader of the Communist World. But the Soviet Union did not follow him.

After Stalin's death and Khrushchev's secret speech the Communist Block fractured, and over the following decades many countries began actively rejecting what they saw as Soviet revisionism. Albania was one such country, and it was China that stepped in to become the country's closest ally. I'm currently working on a video on the Sino-Albanian relationship during the 50s - 70s, which I aim to release in the coming months.

@@johnchristiancanda3320 Hoxha really got to an isolationist and paranoid state by the end of his governance, even more so than last years Stalin (which was justified after Trotsky and facists trying every chance to destabilize the USSR) or the DPRK. That said his thoughts on EuroCommunism are always prevalent. Specially now with social democracies inspired by them (PSOE) going down the drain in the next years.

There's still a lot for me to learn, but I try and share what I do know with the outside world!

I read a book about the Qin Dynasty until the part where Li Si propose to Qin Shi Huang to burn the book and literatures such as work of confuscious and others, it is a motive to unite the 7 kingdoms he conquered and prevent it from having seperatist movement. And that is the moment I realise that how much similarity that Mao Ze Dong has with Qin Shi Huang, as well as the fact that he is the man who admire Qin Shi Huang, just explain so much of his mind to me. The fact that He successfully unite a warring China must have make him so proud of himself that he relate himself to Qin Shi Huang, then his cultural revolution may have been inspire by Qin Shi Huang. He must have been thought he is some kind of reborn of Qin Shi Huang or at least relate to the figure of Qin Shi Huang. That let him become so proud that he went wild after peace time.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. It might be helpful for the audience if you could explain which parts of Mao are misunderstood - bearing in mind the topic itself (the origins of the number 8341) is a myth, and events like Mao's meeting with the Monk is stated as being unproven.

I invite you to watch some of the other documentaries on my Channel - I think you will find that I cover a range of topics from Chinese history, all in a factual and unbiased way, sourcing from many primary resources. Also, I am able to read simplified Chinese to a reasonable level - I actually discovered the 8341 myth from a Chinese language book, and as the story was intriguing and there was very little existing content on it available, I decided to make a video about it.
