Answer:

opium

Explanation:

Between 1811 and 1821, the annual volume of opium imports into China was around 4,500 15-kilo packages (67.5 tons). That number quadrupled by 1835 and, four years later, reached the point where the country imported 450 tons, or one gram for each of China's 450 million people at the time.

The British East India Company maintained intense trade with the Chinese, buying tea and selling opium brought from India. The drug accounted for half of British exports to China. The first decree banning the use of opium dated from 1800, but was never respected.

In 1839, the drug seriously threatened not only the country's finances but also the health of soldiers. Corruption was raging. On March 18, the Chinese emperor issued a new decree, with a strong appeal to the population.

On March 18, 1839, the emperor of China prohibited the importation of opium from foreign organizations and announces the death penalty to the offenders. Mainly hit, the British continued to export and start the Opium War.

The answer would be opium (a drug) to trade for tea because the British didn’t want to pay silver for it and had lead to the opium wars which China had lost.

konstantin123 [22]
Both The US, UK, and USSR knew that annexing the the Nazi heartland in Berlin would end the war within the European theatre through and allied victory. Early in 1945, Stalin, Churchill, and Roosevelt agreed to meet to discuss the postwar political environment of Europe. Even though they agreed to separate Berlin into separate zones, both the US and USSR feared one another's influence would be stronger over postwar Europe (as the UK would not be as dominant a power due to exhaustion from the war). Therefore, it was a race for both sides to reach Berlin first, as it was believed the first to get there would have a stronger influence over the events following Germany's loss in WWII
