Answer:

-Extraterritoriality rights for foreigners in China

-British control of the island of Hong Kong

-The forced opening of five Chinese ports to foreign trade

Explanation:

The Treaty of Nanjing was signed on August 29, 1842  in the waters of Nanjing aboard the British warship HMS Cornwallis. These negotiations (later called Unequal Treaties) were carried out after the defeat of China (under the Qing Dynasty) by the British Empire in the context of the so called "First Opium War" that began in 1839 and ended in 1842.

In this context, diverse policies were signed (mainly in favor of the British Empire), however the three remarkables ones were:

- British citizens on Chinese soil gained immunity from prosecution under Chinese law.

- The  opening of four Chinese ports to foreign trade alongside Canton (Shameen Island) having a total of five ports where foreign merchants were to be allowed to trade: Amoy (Xiamen), Foochowfoo (Fuzhou), Ningpo (Ningbo) and Shanghai.

-The creation of the crown colony of Hong Kong after the Chinese Emperor ceded this island to the British Queen.

What complications could have occurred for ex-slaves when their names were chosen or changed?
Kaylis [27]

In some instances, Federal officials expedited the naming process by furnishing the names themselves, and invariably the name would be the same as that of the freedman’s most recent master. But these appear to have been exceptional cases; the ex-slaves themselves usually took the initiative—like the Virginia mother who changed the name of her son from Jeff Davis, which was how the master had known him, to Thomas Grant, which seemed to suggest the freedom she was now exercising. Whatever names the freed slaves adopted, whether that of a previous master, a national leader, an occupational skill, a place of residence, or a color, they were most often making that decision themselves. That was what mattered.

What would be a good representation of enlightenment principles?
vazorg [7]
The correct answer should be - a botanist who s<span>tudied nature to uncover why a certain plant kept dying.
The most important principle of Enlightenment is reason and knowledge - so instead on relying on superstition and unreliable facts, this person decided to actually explore and study nature further to reach a conclusion him/herself.
