Answer: China had decided not to modernize and industrialize
Explanation:
The Sino-Japanese War (the first one, carried out between 1894 and 1895), was a conflict between Japan and China for the supremacy over Korea (which for a long time was the most important client state for China). This war meant the rise of Japan as a great world power by showing the weakness of the Chinese empire (specifically the Qing dynasty).
The war was formally declared on August 1, 1894, with favorable predictions for China by foreign observers, because China had more people to fight. However, the Japanese surprised to be better equipped and prepared, after having successfully modernized.
That is why after more than six months of uninterrupted successes by Japanese land and naval forces and the loss of the Weihaiwei port by China, the Qing government sued for peace in February 1895.
Answer:
Option D, trying to increase the power of the monarchy, is the right answer.
Explanation:
Charles X was the King of France whose reign in France lasted between September 1824 to 1830. He wanted the monarchy to become more substantial than earlier in order to establish his full control over the nation. Therefore, the people of his nation did not like the changes he implemented in the system and launched the rebellion. Therefore, it may be said that the efforts made by Charles X to increase the power of monarchy sparked a revolution in France.
