The Second Opium War (Chinese: 第二次鴉片戰爭), also known as the Second Anglo-Chinese War, the Second China War, the Arrow War, or the

Anglo-French expedition to China, was a war pitting the British Empire and the French Empire against the Qing dynasty of China that lasted from 1856 to 1860.
It was the second major war in the Opium Wars, fought over issues relating to the exportation of opium to China, and resulted in a second defeat for the Qing dynasty. The agreements of the Convention of Peking led to the ceding of Kowloon Peninsula as part of Hong Kong.

Answer:

The war followed on from the First Opium War. In 1842, the Treaty of Nanjing—the first of what the Chinese later called the unequal treaties—granted an indemnity and extraterritoriality to Britain, the opening of five treaty ports, and the cession of Hong Kong Island. The failure of the treaty to satisfy British goals of improved trade and diplomatic relations led to the Second Opium War (1856–60).In China, the First Opium War is considered to have been the beginning of modern Chinese history.

Which of the following scenarios would most likely cause the country’s literacy rate to decrease? A. Libya is torn by civil war.
kramer
The following scenario which would most likely cause the country's literacy rate to decrease would be if A) Libya is torn by civil war. This would cause the literacy rate to decline, because if there is civil war, schools are shut down and it is unsafe for children to go to school, so their education is halted. This ties into the literacy if schoolchildren have their daily reading and writing learning halted.
