i think it is way more complicated then Europe and here is why. European nations have the advantage of being so close together- asia is much more spread apart. European countries are smaller- think Iran, China, India, Vietnam, Indoneisa,Japan..some of those are about or bigger then all of Europe. We are talking about so much more money,cause the economies in these countries is so much more then that of europe. Nope, dont think it will happen or that it would be a good thing if it did.

the guy above me dosent know crap. One affect was that the christians had a desire for a higher standard of life when they saw how sophiticated the muslims were such as nice cities. It also lead to the fall of constantinople when the crusaders sacked the city on the way. The fall of constantinople lead to the collapse of the eastern roman empire. This gave the muslims an even stronger hold on Juresalem because the europeans lost so many men

Three factors:::\n\n(1) weak, short-lived emperors imposed, deposed, and  \n    murdered by the military.\n\n(2) invasions by Germanic tribes.\n\n(3) the loss of eastern territories to the Persians.\n\nThree factors fed into the transformation of the Mediterranean economy of antiquity into the European economy of the Middle Ages. The Germanic invasions of the later Empire were one of these factors; the other two were the civil wars of the 3rd century, and the Islamic invasions of the 7th century. \n\nAsk your teacher, he may give you 10/10...\n\nhttp://360.yahoo.com/jcbroogley

Japan invaded China in 1936 some say that was the start of World War Two.  The war in Europe started when Germany invaded Poland in 1939 and France and England declared war on Germany.\n\nThe cause of the 2nd World War was the treaty that ended the first world war.

Europeans founded America in 1492, but they were really late in the game. Vikings came earlier, and surely the Eastern Asians before that, but we have no documentation of a date.

The only conflict that I can think of where the British attacked someone of Asian descent was the First Opium War in China(1839-1842).  The war happened because English traders from the British East India Company could no longer sell opium in China, the only goods the English could get the Chinese to buy in mass so the English could make a profit on the tea they bought from China.  Since opium was illegal in China the Qing Dynasty arrested the flow of opium causing the British to go to war in China.  China was defeated and in 1842 they signed the Treaty of Nanjing giving the British full rights to control trade in China and establish Western quarters in Chinese cities where Westerns were subjected to their own law not Chinese law.  I know their was a second Opium War against China I believe started by the French, my Asian history is not as good as my European history so I can't say if there were any other attacks outside of the English attempting to hang onto their colonies in Malaysia and Indonesia after WW II.

The crusades got back to their lands the Greek treasures of the East! They learn to read and write. They started, though, the everlasting Christian - Muslim conflict. Also, they tried to destroy what took them from the caves and forests into cities: the Greek civilization! Further, they permanently weaken the Eastern Roman Empire (the so called Byzantine Empire) resulting in the sovereignty of Ottomans and other nations from middle Asia, the Russian steps, etc., who change the biological map of Europe!

one of their allies had the atomic bomb and were prepared to use it. also, Germany was the main foe, being so close to taking over Europe, they had to worry about them first. military strategy throughout history warns about fighting a battle on 2 fronts. depletes your resourses and manpower. Germany was the main concern then take on Japan.

there were 6 major European powers that sat out WWII while 13 others were overrun and occupied. Switzerland, Sweden, Ireland, Spain and portugal and Turkey were so called neutrals during the war.

I've never heard that question posed so succinctly and eloquently before, but yes, that's exactly right.  Europeans knew we would defend them against attack, so they were free to act irresponsibly.  They didn't have to be realistic.\n\nThis article is only peripherally related to your question, but you'll love it:  \n\nhttp://service.spiegel.de/cache/international/0,1518,343378,00.html

If you are meaning America it is because it is such a young counrty and has had a fair bit of conflict at that.\n\nThe far east was continuously at war for 1000s of years.\n\nNot sure I share your view on this.

The Japanese became isolationist because the Tokugawa shogunate wanted to consolodate thier power, and the overzealous christians were cutting into their power base. So they booted the christians out, and persecuted the Japanese christians who were left. They did allow the dutch to trade, however, because they were not interested in pushing thier religion. Also, the Japanese knew how the Europeans were colonizing China, and wanted no part of that either.\n\nConsidering what happened to the philipines and pretty much every other non-Western country that became christian (colonized and abused), the Japanese probably made the right decision.
