The Opium Wars

What happened during the opium wars? It was a war. With china and the British. Because Chine wouldnt stop trading or selling Opium to the bristish.
Why are they called the opium wars? Because the British were upset at the Chinese for adicting there soldiers, and the Chinese refused to stop.
Who won and why? The British won, because they came unexpected. So China had no time to get ready, and the Bristish had the better technology.Which was just a quicker and easier way of winning.
