Between 1839 and 1842 there was the first Opium War, in which the armies of the Chinese Empire and the United Kingdom clashed.
The main reason for the war was economic, since China demanded payment in silver for its products, without demanding products from the United Kingdom. This commercial relationship caused economic deficit for the United Kingdom, so the British began to introduce opium to China from their plantations in India.
