Why did Chosŏn fall? weak economy meant no financial wherewithal to acquire modern military technology. Lack of a strong military tradition. weak monarch for most of the 19th century system of balance of power between yangban and king that worked for almost 500 years did not allow the dramatic changes in policy needed to cope with a radically changing international environment. the only foreign countries interested in Korea were too weak to keep the Japanese out of Korea. Besides, Korea relied far too long on China for protection.
