Convention of Calcutta : ウィキペディア英語版 | Convention of Calcutta The Convention of Calcutta was a late 19th century treaty between Great Britain and the ruling Chinese Qing dynasty relating to Tibet and the north Indian Kingdom of Sikkim. It was signed by Governor-General of India Lord Lansdowne and the Chinese ''Amban'' or resident in Tibet, Sheng Tai on 17March 1890 in Calcutta, India. ==Background== The British imperative in erstwhile North East India was to open the markets of Tibet and by extension China to their manufactured textiles, tobacco, grain, tools and tea. At the same time, in the context of The Great Game being played out with the Russian Empire in the region, the British considered it important to create a buffer zone north of their Indian empire to prevent incursion by the Russians.
