Both nationalists and communists sought to modernize and strengthen China, aiming for national sovereignty and improved living conditions for the populace. However, the nationalists, led by the Kuomintang (KMT), focused on a centralized government, national unity, and capitalist economic policies, emphasizing nationalism and anti-foreign sentiment.
