China subsequently followed. there does seem to be a connection between how Japan goes and the rest of Asia ends up. I'm surprised noone picked you up on this hogwash. Either people have you on 'ignore' or they grasp of history is sadly lacking. FYI - Europeans (and Christianity didn't arrive until the 1500's - Japan was never predominantly Christian. - The shoguns established a Christian enclave in Nagasaki, to contain its spread. - Ironically, America wiped out almost all Christians in Japan with the second Bomb. The Military must have taken the same history classes you did.
