Which of the following was an important result of the Open door policy

Question

It protected us trade in China
It protected China from foreign influence
It dissolved European spheres of influence
It provided the US complete control of Chinese trade

Answer 1

The most important result of the Open Door Policy was that it protected U.S. trade in China. The Open Door Policy, initiated in the late 19th century, aimed to ensure equal trading rights for all nations in China and to prevent any single power from monopolizing Chinese markets or territory. While it did assert U.S. interests and sought to maintain China's territorial integrity, it did not grant the U.S. complete control over Chinese trade, nor did it dissolve European spheres of influence or fully protect China from foreign influence.
