I think the reason why Japan was never colonized is because at that time they were stubborn sons of bitches and would fight to the death to prevent it. They understood immediately that they needed to buy guns from the Europeans, and made copies of them in large quantities. Along with European guns and their own archery, they were well equipped to oppose any European incursions.
