In the mid-1500s, Japanese shoguns turned against foreign traders due to fears of foreign influence, particularly from Christianity, which they believed threatened their authority. Following events like the Shimabara Rebellion, strict isolationist policies were implemented to maintain control over the population. This led to the expulsion of foreign missionaries and limited trade with only a few countries.
