The Treaty of Nanjing, signed in 1842, marked the end of the First Opium War between Britain and China, establishing significant consequences for both nations. It was the first unequal treaty imposed on China, leading to the cession of Hong Kong to Britain and the opening of several ports to British trade. The treaty significantly weakened China's sovereignty and initiated a series of similar treaties with Western powers, contributing to the "Century of Humiliation" in Chinese history. Its implications reshaped China's foreign relations and internal policies, setting the stage for future conflicts and reforms.
