Genghis Khan – Mongol Emperor In 13th and 14th centuries the Mongols attacked and conquered China, setting up a new line of emperors. In 17th Century Mongols were overthrown by Manchus of Manchuria whose dynasty ruled from

Early European Contact 1557 Portuguese claimed Macao peninsula (remains there’s to this day). Christianity failed to reach the Chinese due to a conflict in denominations and acts of the traders who brought it. British established a trading post at Canton, An edict of 1757 gave them heavy restrictions e.g. no weapons or direct contact with officials.

Opium Wars ( & ) By ,000 chests were sold to China each year from Britain. This was illegal, but traders turned a blind eye. Emperor sent a Commissioner to end trade. British refused to stop and moved to Hong Kong for protection. 29 junks threatened the landing and the first Opium War began. On 14th Aug 1842 the southern capital of Nanking surrendered.

Treaty of Nanking Chinese forced to open ports of Canton, Shanghai, Fuchau, Amoi and Ningpo to British trade. This allowed France, US, Russia, Belgium and Sweden to make similar arrangements. Emperor also had to deal with: Failing tax system, corrupt civil service, famine in 1833 and peasant uprisings in 1844.

Boxer Uprising ( ) A special branch of the White Lotuses – the Boxers, rose in arms against the west. Attacking Peking and anything western, the Empress fled to Sian with her prisoner. By 1900 China was defeated by nations she considered barbaric. Floods and famines brought misery, Japan took Manchuria in 1905 and western influence took most of her wealth.
