Option C, Emperor Zhu Di build such large ships, and so many of them because he wanted to show other nations that China was a very powerful and successful country .

<u>Explanation: </u>

From 1405 to 1433, royal Chinese pretender Zheng undertook seven unparalleled ocean voyages to the Emperor of the Ming.

Throughout the Mongol Yuan dynasty, the continuation of the Ming Dynasty was the legacy of vast shipyards, numerous professional shipyard staff and sleek military technologies from the previous dynasty. The Mongol period promoted commerce and maritime exchange.

Since the emperor of Yongle wants to impress Ming's dominance on the universe and demonstrate China's wealth and value, he requested that ships be made much bigger than they needed for the trips.

Japan invaded "China" in 1937, due mostly to the fact that Japan and China had actually been engaged in conflict for quite some time, and Japan was trying to acquire more resources.
