KMT is as bad as CCP, if not worse.
It's interesting to imagine a different timeline, and I have read quite some novels about it. It's fun.
But they are just fantasies, no help to the clown world timeline we are living.
I am still optimistic about the future of China (and human), so I keep doing my part to make the world better.

That being said, maybe things would have been very different. Unlike with the CCP, there was a long term goal for democracy in the KMT, maybe after the war and without the threat of communism, they would have been able to focus on the development of the country and doing what's best for the people. Maybe China would have a system similar to modern day Taiwan but much earlier than the 90s.
What do you wish had happened? Do you think overthrowing the monarchy was a good thing? Was there any hope for a stable democratic republic to come from the 1911 Revolution? What do you think of Sun Yat-sen?
