      The opium wars would have been avoided if China had just been open to trade to begin with, then everyone wouldn't have needed to turn to opium to begin with.

      China has emargoed Great Britain
      Great britain has gotten casus belli "Trade conflict", China is threatning our trade
      Great britain has declared war on China!
      We have won a sea battle! We lost 1 ship while they lost 33 ships. We have occupied tzuchan. We have occupied Tizjan. We have won the battle at tjunpei
      Great britain and China has made peace: China will transfear trade power to Great britain, China will cede hong kong to Great britain and China will cede Macau to Portugal, Humilitation, War reperations. This will give -England- Great Britain +40 power projection, +10 prestige and +4,2 Agressive expansion. This will cost great britain 100 diplomatic points to peace.
      Great britain has Sent an insult to China!

      Hugh Jenas This may just be the dumbest thing i have ever heard. If they gave a shit about the safety of them then they would have just sent them home. Also sending your own citizens across the world the fight some meaningless war is not vauleing " the safety of its own citizens" it's in fact the ex cat opposite

      birdman33369 Your entire argument is just strawman.
      ""You act like the Chinese were just happily sipping tea"
      I never said or suggested anything of short. You are not arguing against me but yourself.
      "You assuming only the west is capable of violence is idiotic;"
      I never assumed anything however you are assuming a position that i don't even hold which is just dishonest on your part. Your lack of awareness is mind numbing.

      And i never did such a thing hence your strawman you fucking dishonest moron. It you who need to learn what a strwnman actually quite arguing with yourself while pretending in your own head you are arguing with me. It like i'm arguing with a 12 year old who refuse to get it.

      *+Daniel Chen* Gunboat diplomacy is hardly an 'evil' unique to the British. France, Russia, Japan and even the United States used it against China during the 19th and 20th centuries to enforce their various unequal treaties upon a reluctant Chinese government to secure colonial enclaves, trade rights and extraterritoriality for their citizens. Blame western colonialism in general, not just the British.

    • @sitizenkanemusic

      You got to admit the ways The Empire's means to get what they want was pretty damn evil. They understood the devastation of addiction and used that to weaken an entire nation. I wonder if we will prove that the US did the same thing to minorities during the crack epidemic?

      I disagree, we have a rich and vibrant history long before our colonialism and even that lead to the creation of the western world which China now benefit off. I won't lie, we committed atrocities o'plenty but so did every empire. We did more good than bad. (still a lot of bad though)

    I'm curious why is the Italian flag up next to the German flag on the map? I don't recall them having any treaty ports.

    • @JabzyJoe
      @JabzyJoe  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Erich Zorn They had concessions though - the one I was trying to show there is their one in Tianjin.

    • @ErichZornerzfun
      @ErichZornerzfun 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Jabzy
      I didn't really count that given that multiple countries (8 I think) had concessions there and they were pretty small. I know the Italians did try and get a treaty port but wasn't aware of them having any other concessions.

    • @JabzyJoe
      @JabzyJoe  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well I made this map initially for the Boxer rebellion video - so I was trying to show that Italian involvement allowed them to gain a concession.

    • @ErichZornerzfun

      I see, I guess I would have just included some of the other countries in Tianjin, seems a little odd to me to only have Italy.
