Shanghailanders[1] were foreign{{spaced ndash}}principally European and American{{spaced ndash}}settlers in the extraterritorial areas of Shanghai, China, between the 1842 Treaty of Nanjing and the mid-20th century. OverviewOriginally privileged by the "Unequal Treaties" and housed in the International Settlement and French Concession away from the Chinese city, they lost most of their status during and after the Japanese occupation of Shanghai in World War II. A 1943 Sino-British Friendship Treaty abandoned the treaty port system, and by this time most American, British, and Dutch Shanghailanders had been deported to concentration camps by the Japanese. The concessions' extraterritorial zones proved a haven, however, to refugee Jews lacking visas. World War II saw a community of about 18,000 develop, principally from Germany and Austria. After World War II, the majority moved on to the United States or Israel.{{citation needed|date=November 2011}} See History of the Jews in China for more. Famous Shanghailanders
