Shoguns banned most foreign travel and trade primarily to maintain political control and prevent foreign influence, particularly from European powers and Christianity, which they viewed as threats to their authority and social order. This isolationist policy, known as Sakoku, aimed to protect Japanese culture and prevent the destabilization that could arise from external ideas and forces. By restricting foreign interactions, the shogunate sought to strengthen its grip on power and preserve the traditional way of life in Japan.
