Lacked status and poor conditions--Tokugawa Japan was a feudal system where commoners were unable to work up or gain status in the country.
Tokugawa Japan was a period of military rule in Japan where land owners and samurai had power and control in the country. Peasants and merchants were taxed heavily and were unable to work up in the system.
Merchants were particularly attacked during the Tokugawa rule as they represented western culture and influence. The shogun isolated Japan and close the borders so western influence could not change the Japanese system. This would stay this way until the 1800s when Japan would bring in a new government which would be merchant-focused.
This is a lightly tricky question because I think its a matter of perspective. Portugal is known to have been a key player in the fifteen century when it came to navigation and during this period, they <span>searched for a route to Asia by sailing south around Africa. In doing so they accumulated a plethora of knowledge about navigation and the geography of the Atlantic Ocean. Most of the maps started during their era. Where the Spanish came in was later in the century when Columbus was 'rejected' by Portugal and King Ferdinand along with Queen Isabella who had just joined Castille and Aragon decided to take a chance on him and gave him funding along with three ships for him to journey to the East Indies to bring Fame and Wealth to the name Spain (to find an alternative route to the expensive trade one they had across land (Europe & Asia... they heard of the wealth of the east, the beauty of Cinpango (japan) was recorded by Marco Polo etc.)
So in drawing a conclusion I say Portugal was responsible for the early phase of European Exploration while Spain would be responsible for continuing this exploration thus responsible for the middle Exploration while countries such as Britain, France and Holland were responsible for the late European Exploration.</span>
