Answer: A. had no interest in European manufactured goods D. they followed a policy of isolationism E. they limited trade to one port.

Explanation:

Isolationism:

Chinese emperors pursued a policy of "isolationism," or sealing off the empire to reduce foreign influences that they thought were negative.

• They had no interest in European manufactured goods.

• The limited trade to just one port along the coast.

• While European countries, in the midst of the scientific and industrial revolutions, grew powerful in military and economic might, China stagnated or declined.

China was divided into areas of foreign economic control which were known as

spheres of influence.

Many Chinese were not happy about the increasing Western influence so they

rose up in the Boxer Rebellion.
