Welcome!

I welcome you all to my virtual museum. I hope that you enjoy what you see here. I would like to introduce this as a place for you to come and look at several examples of artifacts. What I will be mainly focusing on are Chinese artifacts. These artifacts will be tied to the Cultural Revolution, which happened in 1966-1976; it was set into motion by Mao Ze-dong. Mao Ze-dong was trying to increase/advance socialism while reducing capitalist elements from the Chinese society.

The Chinese Revolution brought chaos to China as social norms evaporated and the established political institutions came apart at the seams, in other words, anarchy became the norm.
