A nation cannot protect it's economic strength without a equally strong military. Nations of the free world during the cold war that had strong economic strength but weak or no militaries were successful...only because the US military protected them.
Their basic principles were: * 'Might is right' * 'The strong shall rule the world' * 'If I can get away with it, I'll do it' * 'Morality is only for the weak'
Becuase the Onins had the power of onions which made Japan very weak because they couldn't stop crying :3
It is safe to say that a weak nation is more likely to follow an isolationist policybecause a powerful nation, for the example the usa, is an imperialist nation that has the tendency to trade and interact with other societies in order to become a world power. Trade is essential because if you are an isolationist nation that does not have favorable geographic features(japan,mountains,high population density, etc) YOU NEED TO TRADE IN ORDER To ensure that you get the natural resources to sustain a society. Japan lacked iron so it needed to acquire it so prior to WW2, they invaded an other nation relying on it's natural resources to wage a war against the Usa. So the trading concept is similar Basically we need to rely on other nations to provide several resources that our geography disables us from getting.
