+A **Foreign Concession** was a territory within a sovereign state, leased to and governed by a foreign power. These areas often arose from unequal treaties, granting the foreign nation [extraterritoriality](/wiki/extraterritoriality) and administrative control, effectively eroding local [sovereignty](/wiki/sovereignty). They served as significant centers of foreign influence and trade, particularly in 19th and early 20th century Asia.
