It was first established in 1 January 1912, when it was proclaimed in the 1911 Revolution against the Manchu-led Qing dynasty, until 7 December 1949, after its ruling party Kuomintang (KMT) was defeated by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) at the de facto end of the Chinese Civil War, which resulted in a retreat of its central government to Taiwan, a territory which it took control of from the Empire of Japan in October 1945 after its surrender in World War II.
