English term or phrase: French Opium Monopoly
Bonjour,
je ne trouve pas la traduction officielle française de ce qui semble à première vue être un nom propre. A moins que les majuscule ne soient pure fantaisie (texte de vulgarisation historique, touristique...). Le contexte est la 1ere guerre de l'opium :
Among those imports (...des produits importés par les Chinois de Hanoï...) was opium on behalf of the French Opium Monopoly.
merci d'avance !
