- mirimir 9y ago1909 - Provincial Assembly elections 1912 - National Assembly elections
- kobeya 9y agoThe first was a last ditch effort by the Qing dynasty to retain power with the election of powerless feel-good provincial assemblies. Even if they had real authority, which they did not, only half a percent of the populace had franchise. Not a democracy by any means. The 1912 election was for the Nationalists upon overthrowing the imperial system. However China transitioned into a period of warlord rule immediately and the National Assembly never had any control over anything except in theory on paper until Taiwan transitioned to democracy in the 80’s and 90’s.
- mirimir 9y agoOK, thanks. So not really any broad democracy, ever.
