In the 1800s, Britain's roads were often unpaved, poorly maintained, and riddled with potholes, making them unsuitable for transporting heavy goods. The surfaces were typically made of dirt or gravel, which would become muddy and impassable in wet weather. Additionally, the narrowness of many roads limited the passage of larger vehicles, while the lack of standardized weights and measures further complicated transport logistics. As a result, heavy goods were more efficiently moved via rivers and canals until railway systems began to develop later in the century.

Tensions between Great Britain and China in the mid-19th century primarily stemmed from the opium trade. British merchants exported opium from India to China, leading to widespread addiction and social issues in Chinese society. The Chinese government's attempts to suppress the opium trade, including the confiscation of opium stocks, provoked a military response from Britain, resulting in the First Opium War (1839-1842). This conflict ultimately highlighted the clash of interests between imperial powers and led to significant territorial and trade concessions for Britain, deepening the rift between the two nations.
Tensions between Great Britain and China in the mid-nineteenth century primarily arose from the Opium Wars, which were fueled by Britain's opium trade in China. The British sought to expand their trade interests and address the trade imbalance caused by high Chinese demand for tea, silk, and porcelain, leading them to illegally export opium into China. The Chinese government's efforts to suppress the opium trade and enforce laws against it resulted in military confrontations, culminating in the First Opium War (1839-1842) and the Treaty of Nanking, which ceded Hong Kong to Britain and opened several ports to foreign trade. This period marked the beginning of significant foreign intervention and control in China, exacerbating tensions and resentment.
