During 1842–1911, late period of Qing Dynasty, although China is an independent country ruled by Royal family nominally, some small parts of its territory was rented,controlled and managed by Western countries such as UK ,FRANCE,GERMANY etc, the Chinese Royal family lose actual control on custom , economy, port etc.The relationship between China and western powerful country is not equal and fair. Western powerful countries such as UK use military force to compel China to compromise a lot on sovereignty and business interest.
