Japan's relative isolation can be attributed to its geographic location as an island nation, which naturally limits contact with other countries. Additionally, historical policies, such as the Sakoku period (1635-1853), enforced strict isolationist measures, prohibiting foreign influence and trade. This approach was driven by a desire to preserve Japanese culture and authority from Western Imperialism and Christianity. Even after opening up in the 19th century, Japan maintained a cautious stance towards foreign engagement, balancing modernization with cultural preservation.
The US stopped Japans isolation in the 1800's by direct military action. The new Japanese government then went about westernising Japan. Ironically US intervention in 1800's Japan, lead to WWII.
There are both positive and negative impacts from Japans isolation during the Edo period. The long peace cultivated domestic culture and the economy was boosted. Because of the Edo period, industrial revolution was delayed and unfavorable treaties were made.
