Q: In Britain, free trade became a central principle practiced by the repeal of the Corn Laws in 1846.   Large-scale agitation was sponsored by the Anti-Corn Law League.  Under the Treaty of Nanking, China opened five treaty ports to world trade in 1843. The first free trade agreement, the Cobden-Chevalier Treaty, was put in place in 1860 between Britain and France, which led to successive agreements between other countries in Europe. Many classical liberals, especially in 19th and early 20th century Britain  and in the United States for much of the 20th century , believed that free trade promoted peace.  Woodrow Wilson included free-trade rhetoric in his "Fourteen Points" speech of 1918:
What treaty led to the opening of Chinese ports to other countries?

A: Treaty of Nanking


Q: The exact origin of the 260-day count is not known, but there are several theories. One theory is that the calendar came from mathematical operations based on the numbers thirteen and twenty, which were important numbers to the Maya. The numbers multiplied together equal 260. Another theory is that the 260-day period came from the length of human pregnancy. This is close to the average number of days between the first missed menstrual period and birth, unlike Naegele's rule which is 40 weeks  between the last menstrual period and birth. It is postulated that midwives originally developed the calendar to predict babies' expected birth dates. A third theory comes from understanding of astronomy, geography and paleontology.  The mesoamerican calendar probably originated with the Olmecs, and a settlement existed at Izapa, in southeast Chiapas Mexico, before 1200 BCE. There, at a latitude of about 15° N, the Sun passes through zenith twice a year, and there are 260 days between zenithal passages, and gnomons , were found at this and other sites. The sacred almanac may well have been set in motion on August 13, 1359 BCE, in Izapa.
How many theories exist to explain the origin of the 260-day count?
