Has to have been produced in or after 1980. So "The Battle of Algiers" doesn't count, although its a great example.

1. Chinese Nationalists increased their influence on rural areas.
2. The Manchu government expelled the Western Powers.
3. China was divided innto spheres of influence.
4. China adopted a democratic system of government.


Question 2
Take up the White Man's burden--
Send forth the best ye breed--
Go bind your sons to exile
To serve your captives' need;
To wait, in heavy harness,
On fluttered folk and wild--
Your new-caught, sullen peoples,
Half-devil and half-child.

-- Rudyard Kipling
"The White Man's Burden"

The phrase "White Man's burden" in this excerpt refers to the

2. advantages Europeans would gain by colonizing Africa, Asia, and Latin America
3. positive role of the Roman Catholic Church in Africa and Asia
4. challenges non-Europeans faced when trading with Europeans


Thanks so much!

". . . But after a long period of commercial intercourse [trade], there appear among the crowd of barbarians both good persons and bad, unevenly. Consequently there are those who smuggle opium to seduce the Chinese people and so cause the spread of the poison to all provinces. Such persons who only care to profit themselves, and disregard their harm to others, are not tolerated by the laws of heaven and are unanimously hated by human beings. His Majesty the Emperor, upon hearing of this, is in a towering rage. He has especially sent me, his commissioner, to come to Kwangtung [Guangdong Province], and together with the governor-general and governor jointly to investigate and settle this matter. . . ."

-- "Letter of Advice to Queen Victoria"
from Lin Zexu (Lin Tse-Hsü),
Chinese Commissioner of Canton, 1839

This letter to Queen Victoria relates most directly to the outbreak of the

1. Chinese civil war
2. Sino-Japanese War
3. Communist Revolution
4. Opium Wars
