wars was Treaty in Nanking which states that Chine has to open more ports to
Europeans to trade and travel. Opening many trading posts all throughout the
country, along the coast and rivers, Europeans could sell all manner of things,

After World War II, there was a great movement of decolonization, with many colonies reaching independence from their parent countries. After the war, countries had to focus on rebuilding themselves and their economy, which led to a liberation of many colonies.
An example of that is India, that gained its independence from Britain in 1947. We can also mention Libya, Pakistan, Myanmar and Sri Lanka, as countries that reached independence right after WWII.
