Explanation:

Trade restrictions on trade in other ports in China were a constant source of frustration for the Europeans of Canton. The British, as well as the Dutch and other Europeans, were eager to be able to access the North China market, closer to the tea and silk production centers, and organized several diplomatic missions to the Qianlong court in order to secure concessions of the throne The two most famous Western missions are the Macartney Mission of 1793, and the Titsingh Mission of 1794. The mission of Lord Macartney occurred at the behest of the British East India Company.

The mission was a failure. Lord Macartney and his entourage refused to practice the customary ritual prostration before the emperor, insisted at all times to establish diplomatic relations on an equal footing with China, and their requests were totally unacceptable to Qianlong, who rejected any commercial opening in the famous Second Edict of Qianlong to King George III. In it, Qianlong used Chinese ritual forms that implied that he treated the British monarch as a vassal. This caused great stupor in the United Kingdom

the answer as multiple choice is c

africa, the second-largest continent, is bounded by the mediterranean sea, the red sea, the indian ocean, and the atlantic ocean. it is divided in half almost equally by the equator. the continent includes the islands of cape verde, madagascar, mauritius, seychelles, and comoros.

africa’s physical geography, environment and resources, and human geography can be considered separately.

the origin of the name “africa” is greatly disputed by scholars. most believe it stems from words used by the phoenicians, greeks, and romans. important words include the egyptian word afru-ika, meaning “motherland”; the greek word aphrike, meaning “without cold”; and the latin word aprica, meaning “sunny.”

today, africa is home to more countries than any other continent in the world. these countries are: morocco, western sahara (morocco), algeria, tunisia, libya, egypt, sudan, chad, niger, mali, mauritania, senegal, the gambia, guinea-bissau, guinea, sierra leone, liberia, côte d’ivoire, ghana, burkina faso, togo, benin, nigeria, cameroon, central africa republic, equatorial guinea, gabon, congo, democratic republic of the congo, angola, namibia, botswana, south africa, lesotho, swaziland, mozambique, zimbabwe, zambia, malawi, tanzania, rwanda, burundi, uganda, kenya, somalia, ethiopia, djibouti, eritrea and the island countries of cape verde, madagascar, mauritius, seychelles, and comoros.
