, “Economic factors were the most significant cause of war.” Discuss with
reference to two wars, each chosen from a different region
① Economic factors were significant in causing the Chinese civil war as it provoked resentment or the
peasants towards the middle-upper class and the ruling government.

the weakness of

centuries




EV: in china, the most significant cause to the war was the failure of the Manchu dynasty
because the government had not been seen as useful towards the peasants, therefore,
achieving limited support and wanted to overthrow them. It was the collapse of the Manchu
dynasty that caused other events, like warlordism. Although the foreign interference played a
role in making the economic within china weaker than normal due to the foreigner coming into
china and making the Chinese have no jobs, it is still because of the weakness of the Manchu
dynasty that caused the foreign influence within China
