in June 1861, president abraham Lincoln appointed anson Burlingame minister <strong>to</strong> the Qing empire. Burlingame<br />
worked <strong>to</strong>ward a cooperative policy rather than an imperialistic one and thus developed good relations with the<br />
reform elements <strong>of</strong> the court. the Burlingame treaty (1868) between the united States and <strong>China</strong> amended the<br />
treaty <strong>of</strong> tianjin <strong>to</strong> establish formal, friendly relations between the two countries, with the united States granting<br />
<strong>China</strong> the status <strong>of</strong> a most favored nation. in 1882, the treaty was reversed by the Chinese exclusion act.<br />
