Answer 1

"Limiting Western access to Ming China kept the country free of foreign influence for a time, but not forever."

Explanation: The Ming restricted foreign trade (tribute system, coastal restrictions) and tightly controlled European contact (limited ports, permitted missionaries/traders in restrained ways), delaying broad Western influence though it eventually grew.
