History and Geography
Europeans who visited Japan in the 16th century had a deep admiration for the culture of the tea ceremony. The modern history of Europe began with the fascination with tea and the search for it. Above all, England created a unique tea culture, and capitalism, which grew with tea and cotton cloth as a catalyst, eventually destroyed the door of the East.
