Both Japan and China limited trade with the west. • How did the Opium War affect how the Chinese and Japanese governments interacted with westerners? • Qing Dynasty collapses • British have unbalanced trade with China (importing more than exporting) To cover debt the British send Opium from India, but Opium was illegal in China. Britain refuses to stop trade because it is very profitable. This leads to the Opium War (1839-1842) in which Britain defeats China. China agrees to open five ports, limit taxes on imported British goods, and give Britain the Island of Hong Kong. In the five ports, Europeans lived under their own laws (extraterritoriality).
