Sixty Years of Japanese Restoration
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, announced the founding of the country. In 1867, the shogunate returned power to the emperor, and the reformists announced the "restoration of royal government." The overthrow of the shogunate, the sabotage faction, the anti-barbarian faction, and the founding faction all came on stage one after another. In 1875, Japan announced that it had entered a preparatory constitutional period. In 1890, Japan held a parliament, 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 was the end of an era and the beginning of another crazy era.
