While this would lower prices, English and American traders would be stripped of a great source of revenue. Hutchinson, his two sons and his son-in-law were granted exclusive rights to trade the tea in the colonies.

In late November 1773, three cargo ships carrying tea arrived in Boston Harbor.

A political changed that caused classical China to end is the fall of the Han dynasty in 220 C.E. After the fall of the Han dynasty China was chaos, and the chaos ended with the rising of the Sui dynasty.
Eventually people developed new arts, culture and economic enterprises. Eventually, by the end of the nineteenth century, India fell under British control but used their imperial power to pursue its independence. China suffered a huge decline from their position as the Central Kingdom. All of the Pacific Islands became parts of migration and colonialism. Japan got off of Western Imperialism and got into equal terms with the west.
Eventually, nationalistic movements in these countries rose up in an attempt to get rid of foreign influence and gain independence. China was considered to be within the sphere of British influence. Britain never completely controlled the Chinese government, but did influence political and economic affairs greatly. British control began to withdraw from China at the end of the 19th century, and many nationalistic movements began to arise. In 1911, the Revolutionary Alliance, led by Sun Yixian, overthrew the last Qing emperor.

Buddhism expanded from northern India in about 200 CE to small oasis communities along the Silk roads such as Merv, Samarkand, and Kuqa, where monks or merchants explained the religion to them.

Hinduism mostly gained a following in southeast Asian islands such as Java and Sumatra, where, by 100 CE, they had adopted Hindu cults of Shiva and Vishnu.
