First Opium War (1 фев 1839 г. – 1 фев 1842 г.)
Описание:
The Opium Wars arose from China’s attempts to suppress the opium trade. Foreign traders had been illegally exporting opium mainly from India to China since the 18th century, but that trade grew dramatically from about 1820. The resulting widespread addiction in China was causing serious social and economic disruption there.Добавлено на ленту времени:
