I'm less informed about the Spanish Civil War, but the rise of #Mao was preceded by the #collapse of the Chinese state; the #RepublicOfChina existed in name only after the fall of the #Qing dynasty.

Chiang KaiShek was not, in fact, a loyal general under the command of the #ROC; he invaded the de-jure capital, a la Caesar, and formed a new government during what became known as the #Nanjing decade.

Then he lost.
