How did the Opium epidemic affect Chinese families?

History
1 answer:
Marrrta [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

For many years, Great Britain worked within this system to run a three-country trade operation: It shipped Indian cotton and British silver to China, and Chinese tea and other Chinese goods to Britain. In the 18th and early 19th centuries, the balance of trade was heavily in China’s favor. One major reason was that British consumers had developed a strong liking for Chinese tea, as well as other goods like porcelain and silk. But Chinese consumers had no similar preference for any goods produced in Britain. Because of this trade imbalance, Britain increasingly had to use silver to pay for its expanding purchases of Chinese goods.

Human revolution definition
Vera_Pavlovna [14]
Human revolution is a never-ending process of continual self-improvement. It describes a Buddhist way of life that eternally seeks growth and personal development. It is about how much we are growing and improving right now rather than what we have achieved in the past.

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

1- Rome seeks control of Sicily - 264 BC

2- Roman navy defeats Carthage off the coast of Sicily - 241 BC

3- Hannibal defeats the Romans at Cannae - 216 BC

4- Spain rebels against Carthaginian rule - 206 BC

5- Scipio attacks Carthage - 202 BC

6- Carthage is burned by Roman soldiers - Spring 146 BC

Explanation:

The Punic Wars were a series of three ancient wars (from 264 to 146 BC) between the sea and commercial power of Carthage and the young Roman Empire, which emerged victorious from this conflict.

The Carthaginians were a long-established seafaring people that controlled the western Mediterranean. Carthage, located in what is now Tunisia. When Rome saw an opportunity to get a bridgehead in Sicily, Carthage confronted it because it saw their own possessions in the west of the island at risk. This initial local conflict expanded into a struggle for hegemony in the western Mediterranean during the First and Second Punic Wars. It lasted 43 years and was operated by both sides vigorously and with great resources.  

Although Rome was on the brink of defeat several times, it ultimately won both wars due to its ultimately superior human and material reserves, whereas Carthage emerged from it in a noticeably weakened manner. Nevertheless, the Roman conservatives under Marcus Porcius Cato the Elder allegedly feared the enemy's resuscitation and massively favored Carthage's North African rivals. Finally, the Romans eliminated the Carthaginian state in the Third Punic War, which ended in 146 BC.
