Answer:

Opium (or poppy tears, scientific name: Lachryma papaveris) is dried latex obtained from the seed capsules of the opium poppy Papaver somniferum. Approximately 12 percent of opium is made up of the analgesic alkaloid morphine, which is processed chemically to produce heroin and other synthetic opioids for medicinal use and for the illegal drug trade.

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer: As states industrialized during this period, they also expanded their existing overseas colonies and established new types of colonies and transoceanic empires.  Regional warfare and diplomacy both resulted in and were affected by this process of modern empire building.  The process was led mostly by Europe, although not all states were affected equally, which led to an increase of European influence around the world   the United States and Japan also participated in this process.  The growth of new empires challenged the power of existing land-based empires of Eurasia.  New ideas about nationalism, race, gender, class, and culture also developed that facilitated the spread of transoceanic empires, as well as justified anti-imperial resistance and the formation of new national identities.
