 Science Fair Projects - Li Tsung-jen
Li Tsung-jen (李宗仁 Pinyin: Lǐ ZōngrĂ©n) (August 13, 1890 - January 13 1969), courtesy name Delin (德鄰), was vice-president and acting president of the Republic of China and adversary of Chiang Kai-shek.
In January 1952, Chiang commanded the Control Yuan now in Taiwan to impeach Li in the "Case of Li Tsung-jen's Loss of Position due to Illegal Conduct" (李宗仁違法失職案), and officially relinquished Li of the position as vice-president in the National Assembly March 1954.
Li's residence in mainland China is viewed by some Chinese communists as a defect that caused Li to "patriotically return to the embrace of his Motherland with smiles" -- something similarly in perception to Aixinjuelo Puyi's reformation.

First novelist Li transforms the eventful life of her Chinese grandmother Li Xiuwen--who was born in 1889 and became the wife of Li Zongren, a major political figure in modern China--into an appealing story.
Interpolating fresh historical research, Li describes the century of vital change that her protagonist, called Bittersweet, witnessed: an era that stretched from the end of the empire to the tragedy of the Tiananmen Square massacre.
Against a setting of war and political turmoil, Li spins a fascinating chronicle of female subservience, in which wedding and birth customs, infanticide and the cruel rivalries between wifely "battalions" all come vividly alive.
