Answer:

How was China affected by the unequal treaties of the 1850s and 1860s

Explanation:

Unequal Treaties is a term that refers to the quality of conditions in which certain treaties were signed between several East Asian States and foreign powers in the 19th century.

The Treaty of Aigún was an agreement signed in 1858 between the representatives of the Russian Empire and the Qing Dynasty of China in the Manchurian town of Aigun, for which China yielded to Russia its territories located to the left of the Amur River and in the Sijoté-Alín Mountains.

 Treaty of Tianjin (1856-1860). The parties involved were the Second French Empire, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, the Russian Empire and the United States, which forced the opening of Chinese ports abroad, the admission of foreign delegations to the Chinese capital of Beijing, the admission of Christian missionaries and the legal importation of opium.

 The Convention or First Convention of Beijing, sometimes, is an agreement comprising three separate treaties concluded between the Qing Dynasty of China and the United Kingdom, the French Empire and the Russian Empire in 1860. In China, it is considered as one of the more unequal treaties, where the parts of Foreign Manchuria ceded to Russia were never returned and remain as part of Russia today.

This is how China was affected from 1850 to 1860.
