Answer 10

You have to be more specific. E.g. during the 15th century, the Ming dynasty, China had the biggest and probably the best merchant and military navy in the world. Under ZhengHe, the Chinese probably circumnavigated the world before any European. They had the compass first. But one stupid Qing emperor undid it all. The whole navy was declared redundant and most of the ships dismantled or burnt. But the merchant navy continued to ply the eastern seas.

Japan built up a powerful and efficient navy during the 18th century and their pirates were some of the best sailors. But they really became a force during the 19th century, culminating in the defeat of the Russian naval in the Battle of Tsushima. Until then the Russian had a formidable naval force especially in Europe.
