Prompt: Imagine an image split into two halves: one side showcasing the Chinese government's efforts to ban the opium trade, with officials destroying opium stocks and implementing anti-opium measures. This could be depicted through scenes of crackdowns on opium dens or the destruction of confiscated opium. On the other side, illustrate the intended outcome, with visuals representing a more stable and balanced society, healthier individuals, and a symbolic portrayal of restored trade equilibrium. The image would aim to highlight the proactive steps taken by the Chinese government to safeguard their population and restore order amid the opium crisis.
