use the passages below and answer the following question Each of Zheng He’s expeditions was to promote trade and collect tribute. Japan was one of the nations that had to send tribute to China at this time. Zheng He sailed between 1405 and 1433. During this time, he explored the coasts of Southeast Asia and India and found entrances to the Red Sea and Persian Gulf. Zheng He’s voyages continued even after Yongle’s death. Yongle fell ill while returning from leading the army in Mongolia. He died at the age of 64, in 1424. After these voyages, Chinese merchants created trading centers in Southeast Asia and India. Among other things, they brought exotic animals like giraffes into China. Zheng He died in 1435. That same year, the Ming emperor suddenly halted further construction of ships. Later, he banned ships with more than two masts. China turned its back on exploration. Why? No one is really sure. Some think that it was too costly to continue. Others think that it was because of the lack of interest of Confucian scholars. These scholars believed that Chinese civilization was the best in the world. Why, then, was there any need to contact other cultures? They wanted to keep their traditions the same. This thinking later led to a weakening in Chinese power. what is the affect of Zheng He's expeditions along the coasts of Southeast Asia and India found entrances to the Red Sea and Persian Gulf.
