After coming to contact with Europeans, China and Japan remain hostile to the outsiders and considered them as barbarians.

Explanation:

Japan and China, in the beginning, did not welcome the European to entire their countries. China and Japan considered themselves superior to the European with their manners and customs. Both of the nations took control of the trading regularities with keeping the prices high for Europeans. The Opium war and coming if the Commodore Perry, led the empires to open their nation for trading purposes. Japanese and Chinese rulers had little patients when it came to missionaries who were in their zeal to convert people in Christianity.
