Topic	Why wasn't Japan colonized by the europeans

Well unlike china who said fuck you we're great and you can't play with us, Japan said cool, sell us guns and help us modernize, imperialism sounds pretty sweet. Chinese colonization really only really started in the 1840s only after trade wasn't allowed. Japan allowed trade, opened up to other nations that brought gunboat diplomacy. Colonization and war is expensive. If you are already getting to do the trading you want and there is a reasonably centralized government there, no need to colonize. So Japan was the only non white country in the world that wanted to buy guns and the Europeans agreed to this and didn't colonize them? --- The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild is the worst Zelda Game by far. <cite>JBaLLEN66 posted [p:955258359] in Why wasn't...
