During the Opium Wars, Britain took control of the port of Hong Kong. Following the First Opium War (1839-1842), the Treaty of Nanking ceded Hong Kong Island to Britain in 1842, establishing it as a significant trading post and colonial territory. This control was further solidified with the Second Opium War, which led to the expansion of British influence in the region.

No, Beijing was not captured by the UK during the Opium Wars. The First Opium War (1839-1842) primarily involved conflicts in Canton (Guangzhou) and resulted in the Treaty of Nanking, which ceded Hong Kong to Britain. The Second Opium War (1856-1860) saw British and French forces capturing Beijing, but this was after the initial conflict. The wars were focused on trade disputes, particularly regarding opium trade and diplomatic rights.
