Features: Comprehensive social development and progress. In terms of the social system, a transition from private ownership to public ownership was achieved, and the theocracy was abolished, realizing the separation of politics and religion. After the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee, the path of gradually improving the socialist market economy system was taken, with public ownership as the foundation and coexistence of multiple economic forms. People's lives have been fundamentally improved. Compared to the period before the peaceful liberation, residents' income, consumption levels, nutritional levels, health levels, national cultural quality, spiritual life, and living environments have all seen significant improvements and development, attracting worldwide attention. Tibet is an inseparable part of China's territory. After the Communist Party of China (CPC) seized national power, the strategic concept of liberating Tibet faced the CPC as a complex historical issue. The crux of the problem lies in effectively addressing Tibet's unique geographical, ethnic, religious and cultural background, as well as the historical and realistic connections and contradictions, to achieve long-term peace and harmonious coexistence between ethnic groups. Through negotiations, the people of Tibet finally chose to support the central government, paving the way for the peaceful liberation of Tibet. This was a historic choice.
