How much did China compensate in the unequal treaties?
Since the First Opium War in 1840, China has signed nearly 1000 unequal treaties with foreign powers, each of which is evidence of China's bullying and aggression.

It is useless to enumerate shame, and it is difficult to be comprehensive. From the macro perspective of the war, China was defeated in the first Opium War in 1840, and was forced to open five trading ports, namely Guangzhou, Xiamen, Fuzhou, Ningbo and Shanghai.

1856 China was defeated in the Second Opium War, and paid 8 million taels to Britain and France. Yingkou, Tianjin, Dalian, Nanjing, Zhenjiang, Danshui, Taiwan Province, Shantou and Qiongzhou were opened as trading ports, and the battery from Dagu to Beijing was demolished. During this period, the British and French allied forces captured Beijing, plundered and burned the world-famous imperial garden Yuanmingyuan.

1867, the Japanese started a war and invaded Taiwan Province province, which was repelled by the soldiers and civilians of Taiwan Province province. That's it. The corrupt and incompetent Qing government still compensated the Japanese army for 502 thousand yuan.

1877 When the Sino-French War broke out, the French army won one after another, France was defeated, and China was defeated without defeat. Sign a Sino-French treaty, recognize the French occupation of Vietnam, and allow France to build a railway to Chinese mainland.

1894 Sino-Japanese War, China was defeated. Treaty of shimonoseki was signed between China and Japan, and Japan demanded 200 million taels of silver for military expenditure to occupy Liaodong Peninsula, Penghu Islands and Taiwan Province Island in China. Japanese merchant ships can enter Chongqing.

1900, Eight-Nation Alliance invaded China and massacred it. The Qing government was forced to sign the "Xin Chou Treaty", and China compensated 10 for more than 900 million taels of silver, which was paid off in 36 years. The China government promised to severely suppress all anti-imperialist activities and punish officials who failed to suppress them. In this unprecedented catastrophe, Cino had the cheek to say to the great powers, "Measure China's material resources to please the country." It fully shows her face as a slave who surrendered and betrayed the country.

1905 When the Sino-Japanese War broke out, the battlefield was actually located, and the Qing government expressed neutrality. In the war of the great powers for the territory of China, countless Japanese people were killed.

193 1 year, the "9 18" incident broke out, and the Japanese army invaded the three northeastern provinces and occupied Chinese mainland step by step.

1937 War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression is in full swing. In this war, China suffered more than 35 million casualties.

1950 Korean War, China suffered casualties1100,000, but in the end we won.

Friend, this is the outline of China's national humiliation 1840~ 1949. The Nanjing Massacre is only a microcosm of it, and it will be beaten if it falls behind. Only when the country is rich and strong will such a tragedy not happen on the land of China!
