When Western merchants arrived in China during the 1600s and 1700s, they encountered a highly developed and centralized imperial state that was largely uninterested in foreign goods. The Chinese viewed Western products, such as textiles and silver, with some curiosity, but they preferred their own established commodities. Trade was largely limited to specific ports, and foreign merchants had to navigate strict regulations, leading to tensions. This period laid the groundwork for later conflicts, including the Opium Wars, as Western powers sought to expand their influence and trade opportunities in China.
