Answer:

Correct answer is A. Chinese weapons were no match for British gunboats.

Explanation:

Hello!

Between 1839 and 1842 there was the first Opium War, in which the armies of the Chinese Empire and the United Kingdom clashed.

The main reason for the war was economic, since China demanded payment in silver for its products, without demanding products from the United Kingdom.  This commercial relationship caused economic deficit for the United Kingdom, so the British began to introduce opium to China from their plantations in India.

Thanks to its naval superiority, British Navy forced China to surrender. On August 29, 1842, both empires signed the treaty of Nanjing, which marked the end of the war.

15. How did the US respond to Villa's actions?
navik [9.2K]

The US respond to Villa's actions by The Pershing expedition

<u>Explanation:</u>

Since 1910 the Mexican revolution was causing utter destruction. In 1916, a leader named “Pancho” Villa crossed the Mexico border entered U.S and burnt down the Columbus town. It was actually an act of revenge that he wanted to take as Venustiano Carranza was declared as President of Mexico surpassing him.

Villa raided and took materials of war as he was desperate to take over the ammunition's and create a stir among the American government. This raid of Columbus definitely drew the attraction of the U.S. to wage a war against Mexico. The U.S responded by sending troops led by General Pershing in search of Villa which was unsuccessful.
