China's authoritarian regime cannot force homeowners to leave their homes as they fight to keep their blacklisted properties.
These so-called "nail houses" remain standing on their dwellings, refusing to be hammered down. The homeowners refuse to let the government repossess their land and demolish their property, according to Mirror.
Most homeowners might end up losing the fight in court while others buoyed by the People's Republic's first modern private property law, enacted in 2007, are still hoping, according to The Atlantic.
The these unique houses have been standing for years, but the Chinese government has previously banned any report of their fear of this increased resistance. However, a series of photos of these nail houses emerged this week.
