Answer:In February 1840 the British government decided to launch a military expedition, and Elliot and his cousin, George (later Sir George) Elliot, were appointed joint plenipotentiaries to China (though the latter, in poor health, resigned in November). In June, 16 British warships arrived in Hong Kong and sailed northward to the mouth of the Bei River to press China with their demands. Charles Elliot entered into negotiations with the Chinese, and, although an agreement was reached in January 1841, it was not acceptable to either government. In May 1841 the British attacked the walled city of Guangzhou (Canton) and received a ransom of $6 million, which provoked a counterattack on the part of the Cantonese. This was the beginning of a continuing conflict between the British and the Cantonese.
Explanation:
1. Ideology
based on a classless society where control of wealth and property belongs to the
state is Communism.
It was a common ideology in the 20th century and
was found mostly in Eastern Hemisphere countries such as the Soviet Union,
China, or the South East Asia region. It was also seen in Cuba which was in the
Americas.
2. The act
of spying or gathering intelligence is Espionage.

spies another company for their patents and similar things and steals ideas.
3. A government policy that opens itself
up to accountability by other nations is
Glasnost.
It was a reform in the Soviet Union when the soviets started
liberalizing the country a bit more after years of the communist regime solving
every problem in secrecy in usually controversial manners. It was about opening
the dealings of the government towards public knowledge
4. A
political and economic reform policy on behalf of the Soviet Union is
Perestroika.
It was a series of reforms that was supposed to help the economy
of the Soviet Union which was becoming worse and worse after years of problems.
It was successful to some extent but couldn’t keep the spirit of communism
alive for long.
5. Spreading information to hurt or help
an institution, cause, or person is Propaganda.
Propaganda is basically
political advertising and is used for getting votes or making your political opponent
