1 juin 1858 - Treaty of Tientsin
Description:
- China -
The Qing dynasty is forced to agree to unequal treaties, which opened more Chinese ports to foreign trade, permitted foreign legations in the Chinese capital Beijing, allowed Christian missionary activity, and effectively legalized the import of opium. This sends shockwaves to Japan, showing the strength of the Western powers.
