Definition: Imperialist countries forced semi-colonial countries to "lease" areas in trading cities for further aggression.

The word "concession" appeared in Chinese in1860s. It is generally believed that the concession should be based on Chinese and foreign documents and treaties, with clear geographical boundaries, and foreign residents in this area should exercise independent and perfect administrative and judicial systems. China's concession system was based on the earliest Shanghai concession and influenced other concessions. The most important feature of concession is internal self-management. Instead of sending a governor from the leasing country, the Ministry of Industry, a municipal administration, was established, responsible for municipal administration, taxation, police, public works, transportation, health, public utilities, education, publicity and other functions. It also has the dual functions of western city council and city hall.

From 1845, China obtained its first concession from the Shanghai Concession Charter, and from 1902, the Austro-Hungarian Empire established the Tianjin Concession. * * * * There are 27 concessions before and after, of which 25 are exclusively managed by the leasing country and 2 are public concessions.

Concessions are generally distributed in coastal areas, rivers and other trading ports or cities that are convenient for trade activities. In other words, they are places where foreign capitalism can conduct economic activities.
