Answer:
Portugal es un pequeño país de Europa occidental en el extremo occidental de la Península Ibérica. A partir de la década de 1400, los portugueses, liderados por exploradores como Bartolomeu Dias y Vasco de Gama y financiados por el gran príncipe Enrique el Navegante, navegaron, exploraron y se establecieron en América del Sur, África y Asia.
Explanation:
Some common aspects of the war effort during the WW1 were:
rationing -since many people were working in the war effort, less people could focus on farming, so there were many shortages.
war bonds - those were used to finance the war effort
women taking over many of men's jobs, such as in factories - this later led to female suffrage!
Correct items that apply:
- The British gained control of Hong Kong.
- British citizens were granted immunity from Chinese laws.
- Chinese would pay the British for losses in the war.
- China would open five ports for foreign trade.
So, the only incorrect item in that list was "The British lost to the Chinese." The British did not lose -- they won and imposed the various conditions listed above.
<u>Further context/detail on the First Opium War (1839-1842)</u>
Britain had been trying to gain trade access to China as part of its imperial ambitions. They found a product they could get Chinese people to buy -- the drug, opium. The Chinese government vehemently opposed this illegal trading the British were carrying on, and the First Opium War resulted. The British won and imposed the Treaty of Nanking on China in 1842, which compelled China to open its doors more widely to foreign trade. The United States followed up in 1844 with The Treaty of Wangxia, which gave the US access to trade in China.
From 1850 to 1860, conflict continued between the British and the Chinese in the Second Opium War, again with Britain prevailing and forcing China to open trade rules still further.
