Chinese and Japanese governments were always skeptical about allowing foriegners into their countries. They feared being counquered and corruputed by Europe. That idea of isolation stayed constant from 1450 to 1750. Their isolation allowed their traditional customs and cultures to survive unlike some small countries that once existed in the middle east.

One continuity would be the mixture of African agricultural nomadic and trading systems along the Indian ocean and the transaharen trade route.slavey was involved. A hange would be that the European's grew massively In power. Also another change would be the European migration to the America's.

The Indian Ocean and Transaharan trade was used by explorers and traders. Zheng He the eunuch was the most influential since he was sponsored by Emperor Yongle of the Ming Empire.This is a continuity from 1450 to 1750.

patriarchy reinforce most religions in the 1450 to 1750 because in the catholic church the priest and pope is always make and they give more power to men then women.
another would be the five relationships in Confucianism because the third relation ship is Husband to Wife, the fact that the husband came first shows he had more power and that women looked after the household while men handle politics.

A thing that stayed the same was the trading systems along the Indian ocean and Transaharen trade route. A change would be the migration form Europe to the America's.Also the European's power grew enormously

During the period 1450-1750 many changes occurred including the forced African slave migrations to the Americas and the Caribbean Islands. There were many slaves taken by force (sometimes kidnapped) and put in ships to help with the sugar plantations in the Americas. In other cases, many slaves were willing to work for a low payment just to be taken to the Americas for better opportunities.

A change would be that empires such a the Ming, Quing, Tokugawa and Russia slowly started letting in Western influences while trying to maintain their traditional values.Something that stayed the same was the constant brawling for power and superiority and fighting to throw out empire borders as much as they could.

In 1450-1750, the Japanese people always maintained social order, and followed Confucianism, which were some of the most important things to the them. In the meanwhile, the Silk Road goes from a high point in trade, to a large decline in trade by 1750.

Between 1450-1750 is one of great environmental change with both plant and animal diffusion. Several foods such as potato and corn, became stable in many regions such as China after being brought over by the Americas during the Colombian exchange. These easy food sources led to an influx in population which created social problems leading to the end of the Qing dynasty.

One continuity from 1450 to 1750 was the idea of trading within the European worlds. Much trading was involved. From slavery to simple trading systems of material items. They would trade over seas and throughout the contry. The people used Indian Ocean or traded with the tras- Saharan trade route. They even migrated to other places.

A continuitie that accured during the 1450-1750 was the japanese isolationism. Japan feared that Europeans would go to their country and take over and that they would be corrupted By their government and people. Isolation allowed Japan and its people to keep their tradistions, religion, culture and customes. They were avoiding westernization from Europe.
