China is an extremely rapidly developing country that was as poor as Haiti is today 100 years ago.

I'd say 75, at the end of the Civil War. The firsthand descriptions of rural China from Fanshen come from around that period and are basically late-feudal, but ravaged by a few decades of major wars.
