Before 1800, both china and japan had limited contact with the outside world. the leaders of both nations considered theirs to be a superior culture and did not seek or welcome change. discuss changes in the chinese and japanese attitudes toward western ideas and western technology over the course of the nineteenth century.

I think the years have proven that Japan and China had opened their economy to trade. Still, they have full control of their economy. China is known for its production of goods all over the world. Even western countries transact for the supplies China can give. Japan is still one of the best creators of technology and is opened trading with other countries as well.
