Respuesta :

Ming and Japanese Tokugawa governments viewed that the Jesuit missionaries were undermining the native religion.

Explanation:

Christian and Jesuit missionaries were  allowed to come from Europe to Japan because of the trade relationship that previously existed between the Europeans and Japanese. They gave muskets and other European goods to the Japanese. But gradually they started to convert most of the Japanese to Christians. Francis Xavier was the first christian mission to come in Japan.  The success of the missionaries upset Tokugawa Ieyasu. He found aspects of the Christian invasion troublesome.

Matteo Ricci was a Jesuit priest from Italy who started the first Catholic mission in China. Christian missionaries from Europe also began to enter the country and prove their dominance slowly it paved way to Chinese riots and uprisings as their religion was undermined.
