imagine that you are an adviser to either china’s emperor or japan’s shogun. write a letter advising the ruler whether you support a policy of isolation or engagement. explain your reasons for supporting that policy. your letter should be three paragraphs and each paragraph should discuss one reason for supporting or opposing isolation

Dear emperor,
(I do not support your new policy of isolationism. I think that we are missing out on key pieces of technology. Europe and the rest of Asia are growing and making new technological advancements and we are far behind. )
(I also think that it is dangerous for us to go into isolation, because when we come out, who knows how advanced the European weapons will be. Right now we are ahead, but for how long? We would be foolish to ignore this.)
(Finally, I think we should engage with Europe to form good relationships. As previously stated, European empires are growing. We need to make sure China is on their good side.)
