Britain had something that Chinese people wouldn't resist that is call "opium," Chinese people used to use it as drugs. Britain wanted to deal with China because they wanted China's tea. After a few time Chinese people started to become addicted to opium. China's government started to get angry because opium was destroying their people and the whole country. In order to stop this they didn't want to deal with, The outcome of the war was predictable. The Chinese people lost miserably. China was no match for the British technology and better weapons.
