Chen Shui-bian proposed his own Four-Stage Theory of the Republic of China.

Former President Chen Shui-bian

The DPP won the presidency with the election of Chen Shui-bian in March 2000, ending more than half a century of KMT rule in Taiwan.

In 2004, President Chen Shui-bian was re-elected by a narrow margin following a controversial assassination attempt on him and the Vice President Annette Lu only hours before the election.

The first months after the election were dominated by press coverage of the travails of Chen Shui-bian and his wife Wu Shu-jen.

A diplomatic row with China erupted on 5 May 2005, when President Chen Shui-bian of Taiwan arrived for a private visit and was welcomed at a private function at Suva's Sheraton Resort by Vice-President Ratu Joni Madraiwiwi, Ratu Ovini Bokini ( Chairman of the Great Council of Chiefs ), Senate President Taito Waqavakatoga and several other Senators and MPs, and several judges including Chief Justice Daniel Fatiaki.

In May 2005, Chen Shui-bian, President of the Republic of China ( Taiwan ), became the first foreign head of state to make an official visit to the Marshall Islands.

In April 2005, during a state visit to the Marshall Islands, ROC President Chen Shui-bian met and spoke with the Nauruan President Ludwig Scotty.

In 2000, Chen Shui-bian was elected president, becoming the first non-KMT president on Taiwan.

DPP candidate Chen Shui-bian won a three way race that saw the Pan-Blue vote split by independent James Soong ( formerly of the Kuomintang ) and Kuomintang candidate Lien Chan.

Recent allegations about corruption inside the First Family had led to three recall motions votes in the Legislative Yuan aimed at ousting President Chen Shui-bian.

With the election in 2000 of the Democratic Progressive Party candidate Chen Shui-bian, a party other than the KMT gained the presidency for the first time in Taiwan.

After the presidential elections of 2000, which brought the independence-leaning Democratic Progressive Party's candidate Chen Shui-bian to power, the Kuomintang, faced with defections to the People First Party, expelled Lee Teng-hui and his supporters and reoriented the party back towards reunification.

Proposals for reunification were not actively floated in Taiwan and the issue remained moot under President Chen Shui-bian, who refused to accept talks under the pre-conditions insisted on by Beijing until 2008 with the presidential election of Ma Ying-Jeou, agreeing to the One China policy and stating the official government of the Chinese state is the Republic of China.

After the 2000 election of Chen Shui-bian as president, the presidency and the Legislative Yuan were controlled by different parties which brought forth a number of latent constitutional issues such as the role of the legislature in appointing and dismissing a premier, the right of the president to call a special session of the legislature, and who has the power to call a referendum.

Under President Chen Shui-bian, pictures of Chiang Ching-kuo and his father gradually disappeared from public buildings.

His political inclinations are more controversial ; he is a very vocal critic of both the Kuomintang and the Democratic Progressive Party and their many politicians, including Chiang Kai-shek, Ma Ying-jeou and Chen Shui-bian.

Since the 2000 presidential election, Li Ao has bitterly spoken out against pro-independence Nobel laureate Yuan T. Lee, who publicly supported Chen Shui-bian.

He alleged that the real motive of the killer was to assassinate Vice-President Annette Lu in order to garner sympathy votes for Chen Shui-bian, and that the killer had been condoned by the governing party for ulterior political reasons.

however the President, who would like to woo the former Chinese province away from both Peking and Moscow, would promise Chen nothing more than an abstention by the U.S. if Outer Mongolia's admission comes to a vote.

According to various sources, Chiang's first personal act of violence occurred around this time, when he either instigated or performed the assassination of a dissident member of the Revolutionary Alliance who opposed both Sun Yat-sen and Chen Qimei.

After returning to Guangzhou, a rift developed between Sun, who sought to militarily unify China under the KMT, and Guangdong Governor Chen Jiongming, who wanted to implement a federalist system with Guangdong as a model province.

Chen adopted a daughter in 1924, named Yaoguang ( 瑤光 ), who later adopted her mother's surname.

Foreign Minister Kaliopate Tavola asserted that those who attended the welcoming ceremony did so " of their own accord ," not as government representatives, and that Prime Minister Qarase's presence in the same hotel where President Chen was staying was purely " coincidental.

This blood was swallowed by a washer woman, who gave birth to Chen Jinggu ( 陈靖姑 ) or Lady Linshui ( 临水夫人 ); the hair was turned into a female white snake and sexually used men and killed rival women.

" He was heavily influenced by several teachers at the school, including the professor of ethics, Yang Changji, who urged Mao and his other students to read a radical newspaper, New Youth ( Hsien Ch ' ing-nien ), which was the creation of his friend Chen Duxiu ( 1879 – 1942 ), Dean of the Faculty of Letters at Peking University.

They attracted other young people with radical political ideas around them, forming a society known as the New People's Study Society who debated Chen Duxiu's ideas.

From Peking, Mao moved along to Shanghai, working as a laundryman and meeting with Chen Duxiu, who had been recently freed from prison ; together, they discussed Marxism, which Chen was also beginning to accept.

The only exception is Chen Liangyu, who was fired in 2006 and later convicted of corruption.

Chen Yu-hui is a married contemporary female wuxia novelist who made her debut with the novel The Tian-Guan Duo Heroes ( 天觀雙俠 ; mainland Chinese title: 多情浪子痴情侠 ).

Later, Yang Jian, who became Sui Wendi, conquered the Chen Dynasty, and united China.

This earned him the aid of other local militaries controlled by Zhang Miao and Chen Gong, who joined his cause to create his first sizable army.

It was created by the Chinese government to alleviate social, economic, and environmental problems in China, and authorities claim that the policy has prevented more than 250 million births between 1980 and 2000, and 400 million births from about 1979 to 2011 ; this claim is disputed by two independent scholars, who put the number of prevented births from 1979 to 2009 at 100 million | author = Chen Wei | title = Sex Ratios at Birth in China | year = 2005 | accessdate = 2 March 2009

Moreover, Chen launched an assault on Zhang Chunqiao, a staunch Maoist who embodied the chaos of the Cultural Revolution, over the evaluation of Mao's legacy.

Immediately after the coup d ’ état, Hua Guofeng, who appeared to be Mao's designated successor, Marshall Ye Jianying, and economic czars Chen Yun and Li Xiannian formed the core of the next party leadership.

After Zhou's release, he and the Awakening Society met with several Beijing organizations and agreed to form a " Reform Federation "; during these activities Zhou became more familiar with Li Dazhao and met Zhang Shenfu, who was the contact between Li in Beijing and Chen Duxiu in Shanghai.

Mao's attempts to purge the Red Army of those who might potentially oppose him led Mao to accuse Chen Yi, the commander and political commissar of the Jiangxi Military Region, as a counterrevolutionary, provoking a violent reaction against Mao's persecutions that became known as the " Futian Incident " in January 1931.

Somewhat ironically, Chen Yi would later become the ROC's first Chief Executive of Taiwan, who would be infamous for the corruption that occurred under his watch.

Police investigators have said that the most likely suspect is believed to have been Chen Yi-hsiung, who was later found dead.

It is not known what criteria were used to determine who would stay and who would go, but 16, 000 troops and some of the Communists ' most notable commanders at the time ( including Xiang Ying, Chen Yi, Tan Zhenlin, and Qu Qiubai ) were left to form a rear guard, to divert the main force of Nationalist troops from noticing, and preventing, the general withdrawal .< ref > Barnouin, Barbara and Yu Changgen.

Zhou's intelligence agents were successful in identifying a large section of Chiang's blockhouse lines that were manned by troops under General Chen Jitang, a Guangdong warlord who Zhou identified as being likely to prefer preserving the strength of his troops over fighting.
