What impact did the treaty of nanjing have on China -?
Tensions between the Chinese and British led to what became known as the Opium War in 1839. Chinese weapons and military tactics were no match for the British gunboats. The Chinese were defeated and signed the Treaty of Nanking in 1842. The provisions of the treaty required the Chinese to pay the British for losses during the war, give the British the island of Hong Kong, and open five ports to foreign trade. In addition, British citizens in China were granted immunity from Chinese laws. British citizens in China were allowed to live under British laws and if they committed a crime on Chinese soil, they could only be tried in British courts. Another clause of the treaty stated that if China granted rights to another nation, Britain would be guaranteed the same rights. The Treaty of Nanking was the first of the "unequal treaties" signed between China and the Western powers.
