Mao Zedong and Enver Hoxha.

The Sino-Albanian split last roughly between the years 1972 to 1978, climaxing in the full suspension of commercial relations between the People's Socialist Republic of Albania and People's Republic of China. The Sino-Albanian split resulted in Hoxhaism becoming a distinguished form of opportunism, separate from Marxism–Leninism. Hoxhaism would be adopted by various parties worldwide, and would become opposed to organizations upholding Mao Zedong Thought], later Maoism.

Legacy

The results of the Sino-Albanian split are still seen today, with various Hoxhaist parties existing separate from Mao-aligned ones and the two tendencies of Hoxhaism and Maoism being mutually opposed despite both claiming to represent the modern continuations of Anti-revisionist Marxism–Leninism.
