Sixty Years of Japanese Restoration (final Chapter)
About This Novel
What is it that makes Japan the country it is today? From the arrival of the black ships to the death of Emperor Meiji, this was almost a 60-year period that completely changed the destiny of Japan. In 1853, the actual ruler of Japan, the Tokugawa Shogunate, declared the country. In 1867, the shogunate returned power to the emperor. The reformists announced the "restoration of royal government." In 1875, Japan announced a preparatory constitutional period. In 1890, Japan convened a congress, and then began its crazy expansion, launching the Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese Naval War and the Russo-Japanese War. The victory of the Sino-Japanese War and the Russo-Japanese War made Japan a world-class power. In 1912, Emperor Meiji died and the Meiji era came to an end. It's the end of an era and the end of another crazy era.
