Treaty of nanking is the first unequal treaty imposed on the people of China by modern western capitalist countries. Britain forced China to accept its aggression demand by military aggression, which destroyed China's independent status as a sovereign country. The occupation of Hongkong damaged the territorial integrity of China. The trading ports became the center of colonial plunder and unequal exchange of China by western capitalism. The huge compensation increased the financial burden of the Qing government, and at the same time it was passed on to the working people, making their lives more difficult.
