[edit] Hainan

Why is the island of Hainan (a province of the PRC) colored pink on this map?

It is accidental, I intend on changing shortly. 24630 20:43, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] New Zealand

The Communist Party of New Zealand (CPNZ) also supported the Chinese in the Sino-Soviet split right from the outset. Logically if the Communist Party of Indonesia (which was only one of many factions in government- if you're going to mark countries with pro-Chinese/Soviet Communist Parties in government then France, Italy and a whole bunch of other countries should be marked) is coloured then New Zealand should be too.Gegen 05:04, 11 December 2006 (UTC

Yeah, I understand what you mean. Indonesia was never under the official rule of its Communist Party. I just added it b/c it was a significant supporter of the Maoist faction, held a popular majority, and was the third largest communist party in the world. But I think it would be best to just remove the CPI instead of adding the CPNZ, because almost every country has/had a communist party. 24630 01:56, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cambodia/Kampuchea

Cambodia is coloured yellow on the map which represents the alignment of the Khmer Rouge with China, but perhaps the map or the caption should note that after the 1979 the Vietnamese-installed government of Cambodia was aligned with Vietnam and the Soviet Union and the opposition Khmer Rouge was still aligned with China.72.27.58.20 18:45, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

That is true. But I categorized them during the onset of the Sino-Soviet Split, because Albania would also eventually split from the PRC and become a non-aligned communist nation. 24630 06:22, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] North Korea

I would suggest that the DPRK was more closely aligned with the Soviets than the Chicoms. —Joseph/N328KF (Talk) 02:59, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
