The Chinese Communist Party (CCP),officially the Communist Party of China (CPC),is the founding and sole ruling party of the People's Republic of China (PRC). Under the leadership of Mao Zedong,the CCP emerged victorious in the Chinese Civil War against the Kuomintang. In 1949,Mao proclaimed the establishment of the People's Republic of China. Since then,the CCP has governed China and has had sole control over the People's Liberation Army (PLA). Successive leaders of the CCP have added their own theories to the party's constitution,which outlines the party's ideology,collectively referred to as socialism with Chinese characteristics. As of 2024,the CCP has more than 99 million members,making it the second largest political party by membership in the world after India's Bharatiya Janata Party.

The government of the People's Republic of China is based on a system of people's congress within the parameters of a unitary communist state,in which the ruling Chinese Communist Party (CCP) enacts its policies through people's congresses. This system is based on the principle of unified state power,in which the legislature,the National People's Congress (NPC),is constitutionally enshrined as "the highest state organ of power." As China's political system has no separation of powers,there is only one branch of government which is represented by the legislature. The CCP through the NPC enacts unified leadership,which requires that all state organs,from the Supreme People's Court to the President of China,are elected by,answerable to,and have no separate powers than those granted to them by the NPC. By law,all elections at all levels must adhere to the leadership of the CCP. The CCP controls appointments in all state bodies through a two-thirds majority in the NPC. The remaining seats are held by nominally independent delegates and eight minor political parties,which are non-oppositional and support the CCP. All government bodies and state-owned enterprises have internal CCP committees that lead the decision-making in these institutions.
The united front is a political strategy of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) involving networks of groups and key individuals that are influenced or controlled by the CCP and used to advance its interests.

Under CCP general secretary Xi Jinping,the united front and its targets of influence have expanded in size and scope.
The mass line is a political,organizational,and leadership methodology developed by Mao Zedong and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) during the Chinese Communist Revolution. Who used the term first is disputed,with some crediting Li Lisan and others Zhou Enlai. In mass line methodology,leadership formulates policy based on theory,implements it based on the people's real world conditions,revises the theory and policy based on actual practice,and uses that revised theory as the guide to future practice. This process is summarized as leadership "from the masses,to the masses",repeated indefinitely.

The history of the Chinese Communist Party began with its establishment in July 1921. A study group led by Peking University professors Chen Duxiu and Li Dazhao to discuss Marxism,led to intellectuals officially founding the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in July 1921. In 1923,Sun Yat-sen invited the CCP to form a United Front,and to join his nationalist party,the Kuomintang (KMT),in Canton for training under representatives of the Communist International,the Soviet Union's international organization. The Soviet representatives reorganized both parties into Leninist parties. Rather than the loose organization that characterized the two parties until then,the Leninist party operated on the principle of democratic centralism,in which the collective leadership set standards for membership and an all-powerful Central Committee determined the party line,which all members must follow.
