☆ These Opium Wars caused China's reputation to be humiliated and proved to all China's neighbors that the once-mighty China was weak and vulnerable = China began to lose power over surrounding regions.
France seizes Southeast Asia, creating its colony of French Indochina
☆ Japan stripped away Taiwan, took effective control of Korea (formerly a Chinese tributary) after the First Sino-Japanese War & imposed unequal trade demands in the 1895 Treaty of Shimonoseki.
➤ By 1900, foreign powers (Britain, France, Germany, Russia and Japan) had highly influenced China's coast - areas where foreign powers controlled trade and military. The balance of power had tipped away from the imperial court and toward the foreign powers.
