In my opinion, the most important item brought were the firearms. Due to the firearms, more Samurai were able to be trained and muskets, later on, were more impactful than swords in combat. ]]> 2021-09-29 14:09:14 UTC https://padlet.com/25chok/b6oz2vms492pul54/wish/1778186805 25chok https://padlet.com/25chok/b6oz2vms492pul54/wish/1784165429 In 1549, Christian missionaries started to arrive in Japan. The Japanese accepted the missionaries' arrival but as they started to spread religion, Tokugawa Ieyasu became upset. By 1612, he banned Christianity and got rid of all Christians in the country. In 1637, an uprising of 30,000 people affected the Tokugawa shoguate. They believed that because most of those who rebelled were Christians, they had to get rid of them. May European missionaries were killed and chased out. ]]> 2021-10-01 13:24:57 UTC https://padlet.com/25chok/b6oz2vms492pul54/wish/1784165429 25chok https://padlet.com/25chok/b6oz2vms492pul54/wish/1784187576 The Europeans wanted to obtain gold, silver, and may more riches that were in Japan.
