Zhang Shuiqi

108K0

The biggest key to why Japan has been able to leap into the ranks of world powers in the past fifty or sixty years is the Meiji Restoration. When a country embarks on a major reform, its internal and external situations must force it. If a country can be prosperous internally and have no enemies from outside, then the top and bottom will be harmonious and there will be no huge changes. The Meiji Restoration was a change from the 700-year-old shogunate-dominated politics to the Emperor's New Deal, which abolished feudal lords and established prefectures. The changes were indeed very significant. Yuanluo studies its causes and believes that it is the history of the Meiji Restoration.
