• Hong Kong: After the First Opium War (1839–1842), Britain forced China to sign the Treaty of Nanjing (1842), which ceded Hong Kong Island to the British "in perpetuity." Over time, this expanded to include the Kowloon Peninsula in 1860 and the New Territories in 1898 under a 99-year lease agreement.
• Treaty Ports: As part of the unequal treaties signed after the Opium Wars, China was forced to open several treaty ports to foreign control, where Britain and other Western powers exercised significant control over trade and governance. Notable treaty ports under British influence included Shanghai, Canton (Guangzhou), and Xiamen (Amoy), among others. Although China retained formal sovereignty, Britain and other powers exerted strong economic and legal control in these areas.
• Spheres of Influence: In the late 19th century, as China weakened during the Qing Dynasty, Britain, along with other Western powers, established spheres of influence where they had economic and political dominance. In southern China, the region around the Yangtze River, including Shanghai, came under British influence.
