What is a qualified artisan who could join a guild?
After being an apprentice, a person became a journeyman, who could earn money in a trade, but was not a master and could not join a guild. The journeyman created what was called a masterpiece, and submitted it to a guild for consideration. If it was accepted, then he was a master and could join the guild.
What city did the Chinese limit European trade to in the late 1700s?
In the late 1700s, the Chinese limited European trade primarily to the city of Canton, known today as Guangzhou. This restriction was part of the Qing Dynasty's efforts to control foreign influence and trade. The Canton System established a trade monopoly, allowing European merchants to interact only with designated Chinese merchants, known as hong. This system significantly shaped the dynamics of trade between China and European powers during that period.
What were two different kinds of guilds?
The guilds are often divided into two types, merchants' and crafts' guilds. They were similar in many respects, such as being used to prevent outside competition. In other ways they were different; where crafts guilds often made newcomers go through a long process of apprenticeship, merchants' guilds sometimes gave membership to children of members and sometimes sold memberships.
