16. Describe the two following challenges in Japan: Foreign Invasion: from the Mongols from China (emperor Kublai Khan) both invasions were during a storm that sank many Mongols ships but made people mad at the shoguns for not giving the peasants enough credit for fighting Internal Rebellion: emperors were mad they didn’t have any power like the shogun, the daimyo fought the shoguns for control, the daimyos won and there was chaos, no central authority

17. Describe the unification of Japan One leader, Oda Nobunaga used guns (from the Portuguese and it was the first time they were used) to defeat his opponents in an attempt to unify Japan When he died others tried until Tokugawa became shogun and ruled all of Japan in the 1600’s and this began the shogunate period that lasted until 1868 He traded with other countries and let Christian missionaries live in Japan

18. Describe the isolation of Japan In 1630 the ruling shogun cut off Japan from the rest of the world in fear they’d become like Europe and the shoguns would lose their power They banned guns during this period because they didn’t want the peasants to defeat the samurai armies This helped continue the shogun and samurai period until the 1800’s
