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.

zepelin [54]

The correct answer is: the president's decision can be overridden by a majority of Congress.

A veto ( from Latin <em>I forbid</em> ) is the power to officially stop an enactment of legislation.

In the United States, every bill, order, act or resolution approved by Congress must be presented to the President for their approval.

The President has 10 days to sign the bill. If he refuses to sign it, he returns it to the Congress with a statement of objection. <em>This is his veto.</em>

Congress considers the objection. Each House may vote to override the President's veto. <em>If 2/3 of each House agree to override it, the bill becomes law.</em>
