   China and Hungay   shared a similar memoy of socialist experiences in the communist period since 1949. Nevertheless, the communist regime
was not out of thin air. The history of Communist Pary in China could be traced after the failure in the Paris Peace Conference in 1919. The
disappointment of the Great Power forced the young Chinese turn to ask for help from Soviet Russia. In Hungay, the story is quite similar. The
Paris Peace Conference disappointed Hungarian, some Hungarian who accepted communist were sent to Hungay from Russia. Sooner, the first
soviet experiment happened in Hungay, the Hungarian Soviet Republic. In this article the author will introduce the birth of Communist Pary and

   When   we examining  the history, it is easy to notice that Chi-
na and  Hungary  shared a history with socialist experiences and
social system since 1949.1 However, the socialist experiences in
the partial of these states and the activities of Communist Par-
ties have a much longer history. In China, Socialist experiences
could be traced back to the October Revolution in Russia, since
the Failure of Paris Peace Conference, the Chinese Scholars and
young  generation tried to find a new solution to help China to
get rid of the miserable situation of colonization. As Mao Zedong
said, With the cannon  of October  Revolution, the Revolution
brings us Marxism-Leninism.   Marxism-Leninism was consid-
ered as a new way to solve China's problem. Chen Duxiu  and Li
Dazhao,  the Pioneers of Socialism in China, organized the earli-
est Communist   group  in China.2  In Hungary,  the Hungarian
Soviet Republic was considered as the second Soviet Republic in
the world. Although it just lasted for only 133 days.3
   In this article, the author will give an introduction of the
birth of Communist  Party and its early exercises between China


and  Hungary.  However,  the whole  picture of the Communist
Party's activities in this period in each country is impossible
present in one  article. Therefore, the author will choose the
most  important  part. In other words, the history of Commu-
nist Party which related to the constitutional practices in each
country  shall be mainly presented in the article. In details, in
the early exercises of Communist   Party of China,  the author
will introduce the birth of Communist Party of China, the white
terror period and the Constitution of Chinese Soviet Republic.4
In Hungarian  Communist Party's   exercises, the main attention
will be paid on the Formation of the Hungarian Soviet Republic
and Constitution  of Hungarian  Soviet Republic.5

   Hungary, the situation is quite similar. After the Second World War and with the help of Soviet Union, Hungary start their socialist experiences
