1701 — Battle of Dartsedo
The Battle of Dartsedo was fought on January 28, 1701 between the Chinese and Tibetan armies over the control of the strategic border town of Dartsedo. The town of Dartsedo was an important trade center between Tibet and China, and for centuries its importance lay on the tea-horse trade. Sino-Tibetan trade in Dartsedo continued to expand as the demand for Chinese products in Tibet grew. The Tibetan interest in Dartsedo led to a growing official presence in the town and taking advantage of the anarchy that created after the fall of the Ming dynasty, the Tibetans took control of the town and stationed a garrison and officials in it.
