What is the current dynasty?
Are Deng and Mao in the same one?
they aren't a dynasty the emperors and dynasty system are gone now. You might as well ask which noble houses Stalin and Kruschev represented for tsar
There is no dynasty. They overthrew the emperor. Anyone claiming there's a "dynasty" in modern China is believing anti-communist propaganda.
Neither Deng nor Mao are part of a dynasty, which would be a (feudal or republican) family who holds power.
I think it is obvious I don't know anything about China. Stuff I found out after skimming the Wikipedia articles:
The current dynasties aren't listed (they probably can't be called that) and are apparently:
Mao:
Deng:
Oh ROC is Taiwan, idk why it's on the graph then.
The ROC was the legitimate government of China for a few decades there. They were so unpopular they lost a civil war with the communists despite initially outnumbering the communists.
I think it was over 2 million on the ROC side (+western support) and 1.2 million on the communist side.
They lost all territory that's not the island of Taiwan, due to the CPC not having a proper navy. They still claim to be the legitimate government of mainland China, it's not a breakaway state. They literally never surrendered.
