🇵🇹🇯🇵Nagasaki Portuguese Dejima1500-1600s Catholic isolated Japan only port to the outside world.

Portuguese Nagasaki Nanban or southern barbarians are what people were called from South China, Ryuku Islands, Southeast Asia, or Indian Ocean. This included the Portuguese when they arrived first by accident in 1543 when some trading ships heading to Canton China were blown off course landing on a island near Nagasaki. Traders and missionaries began arriving to Kyushu including Saint Francis Xavier soon after. Starting trade and cultural exchange included the introduction of matchlock firearms, cannons, galleon-style shipbuilding, and Christianity to Japan. Trade between Goa, Malacca (2 other places I been in the past year) Canton (Guangzhou which was the only places foreigners were allowed to trade in China ) and Nagasaki. In 1550 it was made a crown monopoly and also Macau was purchased with silver from Ming China, to facilitate this trade because of the Chinese trade emargos the Portuguese took advantage as middlemen between the two. Also feudal Japan in civil wars between samurai warlords benefitted the Portuguese. Unloading of the black ships was a well documented event, especially trading for guns, the first the Japanese ever seen. In 1562 the lord of this area converted to Catholicism, the first ever in Japan and a rebellion of Buddhists ensued. In 1571 the ruling lord granted land to the Portuguese and for other fleeing Christians from violence, a cathedral was built for St. Paul like in Malacca and Goa. By 1580, in fear of losing the city to a rival lord, it was given to the Jesuits, and Nagasaki was a Portuguese colony basically for 7 years until 1587. As clans fought over the area, the first anti-Christian edict ended the Jesuits control of the city but still it remained the Portuguese main port of trade. In the 1590s anti foreigner and anti Christian stances started ramping up. 1597 a massacre of Catholics who were brought from the Osaka Kyoto region occurred in Nagasaki, one of many. The begining of the Tokugawa Shogunate isolationist Edo Period began and the Portuguese were the only foreigners allowed into Japan at the port in Nagasaki. Catholic convert rebellions took place and many were executed for their beliefs in the city. In 1636 the shogun decided to isolate the Portuguese to a manmade island, Dejima, that is now incorporated into the city. The island was constructed by the Tokugawa shogunate, whose isolationist policies sought to preserve the existing sociopolitical order by forbidding outsiders from entering Japan while prohibiting most Japanese from leaving. Dejima housed European merchants and separated them from Japanese society while still facilitating lucrative trade with the West. But following another rebellion by mostly Catholic converts, the Portuguese were expelled forever in 1639. The Dutch also had one island they went off Kyushu where they were allowed in their place and they were forced to move into Dejima in 1641, under stricter control and scrutiny, and segregated from Japanese society. The open practice of Christianity was banned, and interactions between Dutch and Japanese traders were tightly regulated. From 1641 on, only Chinese and Dutch ships were allowed to come to Japan, and Nagasaki harbor was the only one they were allowed to enter. Christians were forced underground, UNESCO designating the hidden christian sites around Nagasaki world heritage sites mostly found around caves and small islands. The cathedral I visit was a triumph for the locals when restrictions were lifted in the 1860s and it was rebuilt in 1959 after being destroyed in the atomic bomb blast of 1945. The Portuguese then Dutch were the only Westerner contact, with limited access and trade, just on the small island, to anyone in Japan for centuries . After the arrival of gunships from the US and commadore Perry, Until after 1854 decision to open up Japan more than just the one port, the Dutch left in 1858..
