The Great Leap Forward allowed Japan to embark on new achievements concerning industry and economy. Issued by Mao Zedong
, the Great Leap Forward was a "proposed five year plan" lasting from 1958 to 1963. Shortly thereafter, after several attempts
to make his plan a success, he left China's economy in the hands of Liu Shaoqi, Zhou Enlai and Deng iaoping.
Mao Zedong figured that if the army was treated well and ready to go into battle, that companies would grow with
agricultural workers leading them to modernization. As one of the steps, that the leader Mao issued was that China be
divided into communes.
Communes, were pieces of land that contained 5000 families, people in communes had to give up their pieces
of property and everything to the commune. Due to the intense work day, nurseries were provided for parents who worked all
day. Healthcare and "houses of happiness" were also added to ensure that the people stayed in the communes.
