Answer:

Some Chinese officials believed that the opium trade would benefit the Chinese more because the British were infatuated with Chinese silks and tea. Arguing that trade connections were necessary, these officials advocated the import of opium. However, they were simply interested in their own individual profits.

Answer:  Initially,the Qing wouldn't accept trade goods for the highly sought after Chinese porcelain and tea;they would only take cash in exchange. Later,the British introduced opium into China,which merchants would accept.

Explanation:

Opium trade, in Chinese history, the traffic that developed in the 18th and 19th centuries in which Western countries, mostly Great Britain, exported opium grown in India and sold it to China. The British used the profits from the sale of opium to purchase such Chinese luxury goods as porcelain, silk, and tea, which were in great demand in the West.

Which of the following events do Jews, Christians, and Muslims all believe happened and contributed to establishing the east coa
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

The covenant between Abraham and God.

Explanation:

Muslims regard to Abraham as a prophet, as he created a covenant with God. In Qur'an 2:125 - 29, it is stated that <em>Ibrahim </em>(or Abraham) had a covenant with God, quote: "... And we charge Abraham... [saying], 'Purify My House for those... who are staying [there] for worship and those who bow and prostrate [in prayer]."

The Jews regard Abraham as their father, as they are all descendants of Abraham.  in the Tanakh, אברהם אבינו , or "Our Father Abraham" is used in the Torah. In the Torah, Abraham is promised by God that הארץ המובטחת, (or promise land) he would receive the land from as far as his eye can see for his descendants.

Christianity views the events that occurred much similarly to the Jews (After all, there is little to no difference in beliefs of what has occurred in the Old Testament, rather the difference is within the interpretation. Also, the Jews primarily only believe in the Old Testament as אברהם אבינו, disregarding the New Testament that Christians use). Of course, there may be language difference used, as Jews primarily use Hebrew dialect, while early Christians used Latin and Greek in many of their original writings.
