Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that the First Opium War ended in 1842 with the Treaty of Nanking?

Yes. A reference article states the First Opium War officially ended on 29 August 1842 with the signing of the Treaty of Nanking, and several scholarly sources independently associate the 1839-1842 war with the 1842 Treaty of Nanking.
