Guangdong Republic is a country in East Asia, independent from the People's Republic of China since December 24, 1991 and considered a partially recognized state by many institutions and organizations. Since the Cantonese revolution, which overthrew the Han authorities in 1991, the Guangdong Republic started a path of continuous economic, technologic and social development that continues until today, following a massive openship to foreign investment.
History
In 1970, a civil war between the Han majority and the Cantonese started when in February it uprised the Dog Revolution named after the Chinese zodiac for that year. Cantonese wanted major sovereignty and respect for their culture by part of the central authorities, but it was answered by more repression and death. Most of the Cantonese demonstrations were peaceful and organized by million of students all over the province in those years. The main leaders of the demonstrations were Patrick Hong and Bruce Po, a Cantonese and a Xiangganese who were classmates in the Guangdong Maths and Exact Sciences College. A group of youngsters known as the shirtless ones (冇衫 Cantonese: móuh sāam) declared a state of civil disobeyance on college and government authorities and called the Cantonese to defeat the centralism peacefully. Attempts on peace were done in 1975, 1976, 1982, 1990 and in 1991. On December 24 1991, when the news that the Soviet bloc fell, the Guangdong government in exile declared independence unilaterally. The Unilateral Declaration of Independence of the Guangdong Republic (Cantonese: 廣東共和國單方面獨立宣言, transliteration: gwóng dūng guhng wòh gwok dāan fōng mín duhk laahp syūn yìhn).
