What to Focus On

  • Japanese isolation lasted for two centuries.
  • Commodore Matthew Perry forced the opening of Japan.
  • The 1854 treaty opened Shimoda and Hakodate to American ships.
  • Japan became a major power in the Far East.
  • During World War I, trade and shipping grew rapidly.
  • All adult males got voting rights in 1925.
  • Opposition to democracy weakened the parliamentary system.
  • Corruption reduced public trust in politicians.
  • Economic crisis made the political situation much worse.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Japan became militaristic only because it was attacked by foreign powers.

Democracy alone failed to prevent militarism in Japan, so democratic reforms had no value.

The 1854 treaty was a fair agreement that simply opened trade between equals.
