The smuggle of a very addicting drug named Opium that was brought over to China from Britain's Indian colonies. When China banned this highly effective and addicting drug from China, the British attacked Chinese ports. There we seen it as the Opium War between China and Britain. Britain however won the war, but banned Opium.
