The correct option is C

The Tiananmen Square protests of 1989, also known as the Tiananmen massacre, the Tiananmen revolt or the June 4 incident, consisted of a series of demonstrations led by students in the People's Republic of China, which took place between 15 April and June 4, 1989. The protest is named after the place where the People's Liberation Army suppressed the mobilization: Tiananmen Square, in Beijing. The protesters came from different groups, from intellectuals who believed that the Communist Party government was too repressive and corrupt, to city workers who believed that economic reforms in China had gone too far and that inflation and unemployment were threatening their life forms. The event that started the protests was the death of Hu Yaobang.
