Establishment of Jiang Jieshi’s Rule (1949–1950s)

After the Communist victory in 1949, Jiang Jieshi (Chiang Kai-shek) and about two million Guomindang (GMD) officials, soldiers, and refugees fled to Taiwan, re-establishing the Republic of China (ROC).
The GMD set up a one-party authoritarian state, claiming to be the legitimate government of all China, supported by the United States during the Cold War.
Under U.S. protection (especially after the Korean War, 1950–1953), Taiwan became strategically important as a bulwark against communism.
The GMD imposed martial law (1949–1987) to suppress dissent, control the press, and prevent Communist infiltration.
Jiang centralized power under the Presidential Office and the National Security Bureau, creating a strong, militarized government.
