Answer:
The tea-opium connection led to the Opium War.
Explanation:
The tea-opium connection refers to the commercial relationship between the Europeans and the Chinese during the 18th century. China used to be self-sufficient, meaning that, since they had more exports than imports, they had no need to establish new trade relationships with Europe. However, Britain was interested in importing Chinese tea. By smuggling opium into China, Britain managed to get the Chinese people addicted to it and therefore created a demand for a British good in that country.
The tea-opium connection was clearly beneficial for the Europeans and not to the Chinese, and the British refusal to smuggle opium into China led to the Opium War.

Explanation:
As a result of the Missouri Compromise, passed in 1820, Missouri was admitted into the Union as a slave state, while Maine was admitted as a free state. The purpose of the Compromise was to maintain the balance between the number of slave and free states in the Union.
Besides that, this law officially forbid slavery in the Louisiana Territory north of the 36° 30´ parallel, which served as the southern boundary of Missouri. Everything north of the line would be free soil, except for Missouri. The Compromise was repealed in 1854 and declared unconstitutional three years later, as the Supreme Court decided that Congress had no right to prohibit slavery in the named territories.
