The Two Coasts of China - S1.E1 - The Pacific Century
Introduces the concept of a "balancing act" in China's elite's perceptions of external threats and opportunities that in one form or another have presented themselves ever since the creation of a unified Chinese state. Most of this episode, however, takes place in the 19th century when the threat was overwhelmingly from the seacoast with the arrival of aggressive Western traders and, ultimately, their countries' warships.
