RE: When Mao Zedong got trapped in the butterfly effect
"The citizens started to kill sparrows to increase their farming yield. Mao Zedong wanted to make farming a state sponsored activity. He made it but ‘killing sparrow’ also became a state sponsored activity simultaneously."
So, Mao caused 15 million deaths by killing millions of sparrows.
The incident is really strange. I guess this is not very highlighted in the world history. I found this extremely thought provoking when I came to know about this. Thanks for appreciation.
