The '''Three Principles of the People''' ({{Lang-zh|t=三民主義|p=Sānmín Zhǔyì}}), also known as the '''Three People's Principles''', '''San-min Doctrine''', '''San Min Chu-i''', or '''Tridemism'''<ref>Stéphane Corcuff, Robert Edmondson [https://books.google.com/books?id=vFy3J2PyEAoC&pg=PA77 ''Memories of the Future: National Identity Issues and the Search for a New Taiwan''] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230124220920/https://books.google.com/books?id=vFy3J2PyEAoC&pg=PA77 |date=24 January 2023 }} p. 77. {{ISBN|0765607921}}</ref> is a [[political philosophy]] developed by [[Sun Yat-sen]] as part of a philosophy to improve [[Republic of China|China]] during the [[Republic of China (1912–1949)|Republican Era]]. The three principles are often translated into and summarized as nationalism, democracy, and the livelihood of the people (or welfarism). This philosophy has been claimed as the cornerstone of the nation's policy as carried by the [[Kuomintang]]; the principles also appear in the first line of the [[national anthem of the Republic of China]].
