Answer 1

Option A: "Toyotomi Hideyoshi did not distinguish missionary from trade activities".

Step-by-step explanation:

Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the daimyo that unified Japan, was clear distinguishing commercial and missionary activities. When que launched the edict in 1587 (“Edict of expulsion of the Christian Padres”) he was conscious of the Christian expansion and the growing power of these religious missions in Japanese territory. On the other hand, he was really careful regarding the trading activity and the economic and commercial consequences, therefore only condemned Europeans who spread God’s word, allowing trading links with dutch, spanish, among others.
