I will be talking a little bit about imperialism in China. During the eighteenth century, the Qing Dynasty government expanded its western borders to include areas such as Xinjiang and Tibet that had historically been under direct Chinese control during the Han, Tang, Yuan periods. This led to the process of Chinese national unification. Chinese nationalists, mainly those of the nineteenth century, also regarded Qing expansion as imperialist and colonial when it came the Qing rule of Han Chinese areas, but not when it came to ruling outlying regions. During and earlier than the eighteenth century, Jesuits and merchants from Western Europe came to China in increasing numbers which led to the beginning of Euroopean expansion in China.
