Because the trade with China was an isolationist nation which saw Western ideas as problematic for the current state of their nation, because Western nations did not possess anything of value to exchange, they began to look for different methods, among them the sale of drugs and addictives to the population. By 1839, opium stocked by the United States, the United Kingdom, and France had reached the isolated peasants and the workers spent 2/3 of their profits to maintain their addiction.

Before this, the Chinese emperor banned opium and expelled the British merchants, who upon arriving in London complained to the British government, which decided to attack China with its powerful fleet to force it to buy opium cultivated in British India.

Andrew [12]

The correct answer to this open question is the following

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

I think what motivated Razin and his followers to take action was that they were sick and tired of the many injustices and aggravations suffered due to the oppressive and despotic practices of the Russian tsar. I also think that Razin and his forces were able to defeat the tsar's soldiers because he could unite peasants, Russian people, and soldiers to join Razin and his rebels to fight the tsar's troops.

Stenka Razin (1630-1671) led the Cossacks to rebel against the nobles and the tsar in the southern territories of Russia from 1670 to 1671.
