You didn't provide a list, but here are items that were imposed by Britain when they won the First Opium War:

  • The British gained control of Hong Kong.
  • British citizens were granted immunity from Chinese laws.
  • Chinese would pay the British for losses in the war.
  • China would open five ports for foreign trade.

<u>Further context/detail on the First Opium War (1839-1842)</u>

Britain had been trying to gain trade access to China as part of its imperial ambitions.  They found a product they could get Chinese people to buy -- the drug, opium.  The Chinese government vehemently opposed this illegal trading the British were carrying on, and the First Opium War resulted.  The British won and imposed the Treaty of Nanking on China in 1842, which compelled China to open its doors more widely to foreign trade.  The United States followed up in 1844 with The Treaty of Wangxia, which gave the US access to trade in China.  

From 1850 to 1860, conflict continued between the British and the Chinese in the Second Opium War, again with Britain prevailing and forcing China to open trade rules still further.

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Between 1800 and 1900, the population of Europe more than doubled. Instead, populations soared because the death rate fell. Nutrition improved, thanks in part to improved methods of farming, food storage, and distribution. Medical advances and improvements in public sanitation also slowed death rates.

Which action resulted in Kentucky taking a stand rather than remaining neutral
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is A) Confederate forces invaded Kentucky

Explanation:

Since the beginning of the American Civil War, the commonwealth of Kentucky wanted to remain neutral in the conflict.  For some time it stayed out of the conflict saving it the death and destruction that came with the war.

However, things changed when General Leonidas Polk  from the Confederate army unsuccessfully tried to invade Kentucky. Once the attack was repelled, the governor of Kentucky asked the Union army for help.

This was welcomed by President Lincoln as he believed Kentucky to be very important if the Union was to be maintained.
