Colonial governments were similar in that they were controlled by another powerful country.
For example, Great Britain's colonies in Nother America, Africa and Asia. They were all over the world but eventually controlled by powers in London.
Similar examples were seen when the United States colonized Phillipines and controlled it for many years.
However, they were different in that they all had seperate local governing bodies and signifcantly different laws and rules that reflected the needs and cultures of the local people.
Answer:
Freedom

Both the Chinese and the Japanese felt that the Europeans were barbarians. They were particularly repelled by the smell of these foreigners who ate much fattier diets and who did not typically wash very often. They also felt the Europeans lacked subtlety and were rather crass in their behaviors.
The similarities, however, largely end there. The Chinese tried to simply ignore the Europeans. They were able to do this to some degree because the Europeans did not have anything they wanted. They were willing to take European silver in exchange for tea and otherwise leave the Europeans alone. This worked until around the time of the Opium Wars when the Europeans forced China to open itself more.
