for those in the future, C is the right answer for the first question. pissed me off n confused me how we just went off to a totally different question. not fair. but i found it somewhere else

C is the correct answer if y'all are confused. :)

What are you guys talking about???? Is the answer to the first question C? Or is that the answer to the second question???

Nope, about the Boer Wars.

ok then c?

To determine which option explains the decline of Japan's isolationism, we can evaluate each option individually and consider the historical context.

a. The elimination of isolationist policies in Japan was caused by the need to raise money through tariffs on imports: While raising money through tariffs was indeed a factor in Japan's modernization efforts during the Meiji period, it does not directly explain the decline of isolationism.

b. Limited natural resources on the islands of Japan led to the end of isolationism and allowed for the rise of Japanese industrialization: While limited resources may have played a role in Japan's push for industrialization, it does not directly explain the decline of isolationism.

c. Western cultures forced treaties on Japan that would open its ports and end its imposed trade limitations and isolationism: This option is the most accurate explanation. Japan, through the Convention of Kanagawa in 1854 and subsequent treaties, was indeed compelled by Western powers, notably the United States, to open its ports and abandon its isolationist practices.

d. Fearing an invasion by Russia, Japanese leaders eliminated isolationism as a foreign policy so they could seek assistance from China: This option does not align with historical facts. Japan's decision to abandon isolationism was primarily influenced by the pressure from Western powers, rather than a fear of Russian invasion.

Therefore, option c, which states that Western cultures forced treaties on Japan to end its imposed trade limitations and isolationism, best explains the decline of Japan's isolationism.

C is closest to correct, yes. Make sure that's what your text says.

I don't think A is the best answer.
