"Traditional China begins to disintegrate in the mid-19th century. The western world enters the great land under the imperial Qing Dynasty. So far, Chinese goods have been in great demand in England, France, and the United States, without China receiving goods in return from the West. Above all, the Chinese received silver as payment for tea, porcelain and other Far Eastern goods. There was an imbalance in the trade relationship, against which, especially the English proceeded. They brought opium to China. Here, this was used as medicine, but also resulted in dangerous addiction. When China went against these imports, the Opium War (1840-1842) took place. The English won because of their military and technical superiority. The Chinese military was very poorly equipped, simple soldiers and generals ran away without a fight."
