Die Opiumkriege - Chinas beginnender Kontrollverlust

Today we're talking about the Opium Wars between China and the United Kingdom in the 19th century. We'll look at why the First and Second Opium Wars happened, how they unfolded, and what the outcome was. In Chinese history, the Opium Wars mark the beginning of the Qing Dynasty's loss of control over Western imperialism in the 19th century. Instability, civil war, and the encroachment of Western powers on the Chinese market dominated politics in 19th-century China. The Boxer Rebellion at the end of the century ultimately marked the last major stand against this policy before the Qing Dynasty fell as a result of the Xinhai Revolution. 💰Want to support my work?
