How did the “Open Door Policy” cause / result in the “Boxer Rebellion”? Explain.

Explanation:

the open door policy allowed America and other western powers to openly trade in China, which subverted the authority and legitimacy of the Qing dynasty. furthermore, British traders took advantage of the policy to openly trade opium in Chinese, which led to addiction along with other social problems within society. Since the Qing government was weakened and decentralized, local people began organizing in massive open revolt against western agents and institutions within the trade cities, including missionaries across the country.
