After the Opium War, the natural economy disintegrated, why did it still dominate? My understanding is that it has disintegrated, that is, it no longer exists, and it no longer exists. ...

The Opium War was the beginning of the disintegration of natural economy. After the capitalist powers headed by Britain opened the door to China, the traditional natural economy was destroyed, and China's own capitalism began to appear and develop initially more than 20 years after the Opium War. But this is limited to coastal areas, and the vast rural areas are still dominated by men farming and women weaving, and the natural economy is still dominant. It was not until the founding of New China that the natural economy collapsed.
