<span> <span>There was a lot of tension between Great Britain and China due to the opium trade of British merchants and the Chinese of the Qing dynasty. Since the British needed Chinese goods but did not have enough silver for trading, they decided to exchange Chinese goods for opium instead. Because of the opium trade, there were many Chinese who became addicted to the substance. This lead to a high number of unstable individuals in China. This lead to the Chinese revolting against the British merchants. This, in turn, lead to the opium war. </span> </span>

Identify why the western ports were important to the United States
Gala2k [10]

The ports of the West Coast of the United States have historically been very important for the development of the country. From the date of independence, when the country only had ports in the Atlantic Ocean, it was understood that bioceanity was crucial to convert a nation into an economic power. The American expansionist plans, based on the doctrine of Manifest Destiny, sought to reach the Pacific Ocean.

These ports allowed the United States to expand its commercial influence to the Pacific Ocean, extending its commercial network to nations such as Japan, China, India and Australia, among others, who over the years have become great commercial partners of our country.

Thanks to this commercial expansion, the United States also gained a great geopolitical influence, for which bioceanity played a fundamental role. Today, America is influential both in the Atlantic Ocean, which connects it with Europe, and in the Pacific Ocean, which brings it closer to the great Asian markets.
