> the government of Republic of China was founded in 1912
The Republic of China is the official name of Taiwan; mainland China is The People's Republic of China.
The last Imperial dynasty, the Qing, usually is dated to have ended in 1911. There was a period of intermittent civil war and various claims to government until the Communists defeated the Nationalists in 1949.
1949 is usually given as the date of the founding of the current Chinese state. (The Nationalists fled to Taiwan, which became the Republic of China.)
