Meiji Period

Question about the Meiji Period..?
in the meiji period why did the Japanese emperor close their ports so they couldnt trade with the west?
i need to know why the emperor did that.
thanks,
rachhh
He did it because northern invaders that lived in the mountains were planing on an attack in in the port.
