For the next 3,000 years, opium was an important trade item among civilizations clustered around the Mediterranean. Prized by merchants and traders, opium would find its way into markets in Greece, Carthage, India, Persia, and China.
    -Portuguese traders with routes to the East China Sea smoked opium with tobacco in long-stemmed pipes. They reintroduced the practice to the Chinese who had frowned on its use. The British East India Company assumed control of poppy-producing fields in India and dominated the opium trade. By the late 1700s, the East India Company had established a monopoly on its import into China, Europe, and the United States.]]>     2017-03-28 00:00:06 UTC https://padlet.com/kirkman_lily65/1h7bv1re82j4/wish/162978997     Classification kirkman_lily65 https://padlet.com/kirkman_lily65/1h7bv1re82j4/wish/162981385 Opiates are powerful painkillers.  They are made from opium, a white liquid in the poppy plant.  Opiates produce a quick, intense feeling of pleasure followed by a sense of well-being and calm.]]> 2017-03-28 00:26:24 UTC https://padlet.com/kirkman_lily65/1h7bv1re82j4/wish/162981385 Heroin kirkman_lily65 https://padlet.com/kirkman_lily65/1h7bv1re82j4/wish/162982187 "Heroin is a powerful narcotic drug that is very habit-forming. It is derived from the opium poppy plant. Its sale and use are illegal in most parts of the world. However, this has not stopped the cultivation or farming of poppies and the creation of heroin in many countries in Southeast Asia, Southwest Asia, Central America, South America, and Mexico"(Barbara C. Bigelow).
