About : On 27 February 1947, a dispute between a female cigarette vendor and a Chinese official started civil unrest and open rebellions. The Chinese responded with military force and put Taiwan under martial law. The Allied Forces gave temporary control of Taiwan to the Republic of China to handle the surrender of Japanese troops and local administration.
