Chen Jiongming (Chinese: 陳炯明; pinyin: Chén Jiǒngmíng; Wade–Giles: Ch'en Chiung-ming; 18 January 1878 – 22 September 1933) was a Chinese statesman, military leader, and revolutionary who was a key figure in the federalist movement during the Warlord Era of the Republic of China. An early revolutionary against the Qing dynasty, he served as civil governor of Guangdong province from 1920 to 1922 and commander-in-chief of the Guangdong Army. His vision of a democratic China, unified peacefully through a federal system, ultimately brought him into conflict with Sun Yat-sen, who favoured a centralized state unified by military force. Born in Haifeng, Guangdong, Chen was educated in law and politics before joining the revolutionary Tongmenghui. Read more on Wikipedia
