Everyone else except Northeast Asians were lower in intelligence, and had circumstances geographically (Europe was the most densely populated and thus had the most competition) that allowed them to lay back while the Europeans had to work hard.

Not per se. It was more that they didn't care about too much besides converting the Japanese to Catholicism and trading. But in order to do that they participated in the power struggles between lords and shoguns making sure those friendly to their interests rose to power. That should at least earn it teal on this map.

My reference to gunboat diplomacy was primarily in regard to the Portuguese, and later Dutch.
