The Opium War started with the British East India company selling Opium in India, when the market for Opium in India ran out the British decided to trade with China. The British shipped Opium into Canton and then sold it to the Chinese merchants, selling it to the Chinese people. By the 1830's China had been flooded with tons of cheap Opium. In 1839 the Imperial Commissioner for Canton wanted to cut off all Opium trade with the British, his name was Lin Tse-hsu. Because the British used the money from the Opium to buy things such as tea and porcelain, which were all in great demand in Britain, the British were not happy. Despite China's warnings Britain sold the Opium illegally for a higher price. Meanwhile the British had began their renaissance because they were white they found some mexicans to help them build weirdass english houses and make tea cabinets China was distraught and beheaded all Britons in China, those who surrendered were forced to work farms in China, as you can imagine the British were not happy about this either. However the Chinese sent a small army of junks to Britain but the British already sent a small but powerful army of modern naval fleets.

Like many drugs made from opium, including synthetic opioids (e.g. methadone) heroin is a very strong painkiller. 'Street' heroin sold as 'brown' is sometimes used by clubbers as a chill out after a big night out. Brown is still heroin but some people mistakenly think it's not as addictive. ----------- Methadone is synthetic, so its not made from opium. Morphine and codeine are extracted from opium, and many drugs are made from these or the other alkaloids in opium (Heroin, hydrocodone, hydromorphone, and oxycodone). More correctly, opium contains morphine which is a central nervous system depressant and an opiate. It causes respiratory depression, euphoria, sleepiness, and calmness. It also causes constipation, nausea, and itching. It is highly addictive and will make you tolerant and dependent.
