Question

The original usage of the term “comprador” denoted servants in this non-Portuguese city who went to the market to buy for their households. This city is the capital of a province where native peoples referred to as Punti massacred a group whose name means “guest families” during a 13-year-long “Clan War.” (-5[1])That war was sparked by lingering resentment from the Red Turban’s failed attempt to capture this city. This city was the center of the (*) Thirteen Factories monopoly (10[1]-5[3])which (10[1])arose out of (10[1])the Qianlong (10[2])emperor’s isolationist (10[1])policy. (-5[2])It’s not Hong Kong, but two 1841 battles during the First Opium War centered around (-5[1])this Pearl River port (10[1])city, (10[2]-5[1])which (10[1])was the only city where foreign trade was allowed. (10[2]-5[2])For 10 points, name this capital of Guǎngdōng province, which lends its alternate name to a dialect of Chinese spoken in Hong (10[1]-5[1])Kong. (10[2])■END■ (10[10])

ANSWER: Guǎngzhōu [or Canton]
