In the Twenties the Chinese communists proclaimed a
Soviet republic in Kiangsi. A flag was hoisted. The left sign means: "Communist,
the right one: Chinese". Source: Michel Lupant (through A. Chang). Another pattern
is shown in Flags Through The Ages And Across The
World by W. Smith.

![[Chinese Soviet Republic War Flag]](../images/c/cn-sovrp.gif)
The Chinese Soviet Republic was the first communist
controlled government in China. It was proclaimed 3 January 1932 in Kiangsi and
was overthrown by Chiang Kai-shek on 10 November 1934. The Chinese Communist Party
adopted their own War Flag in 1935, which was red bearing a large 5-pointed white
star in the center upon which was a *black* hammer and sickle of the Russian-soviet
type. It was abandoned in late 1937 when the communists joined with the nationalists
to fight the Japanese. I am not aware that the Communist Party of China (CPC) adopted
any other distinctive flags subsequent to WWII and 1949. The Chinese Red Army, on
the other hand adopted a red banner with a single yellow star in the canton after
the Japanese defeat, during the struggle for control of China with the Nationalists.
I am not sure when, but at some point, and I think it was after 1949, the numerals
8 and 1 were added to the army flag, standing for the date of its founding, 1 August
1928.
