    It's a very rational way of thinking. They needed to be modernized or westernized (since only the West was modern at the time) in order to prevent being taken over. The Shogun was too naive and wanted to keep things as it were, and just magically became like Britain. The issue is if they didn't evolved from feudalism, they would get flattened. The issue in the West was assuming other parts of the world were as rational. especially in the Middle East, where they kill each other over being from the tribe 1km down the road.

    The Meiji Era and Japan's Modernization has always fascinated me. How a society that had virtually no advancement for two centuries and was essentially a forgotten backwater then turns into a Modern Great Power in the span of 50 years is truly incredible. If it has any lessons for us today it is that we should never underestimate what time and determination can do. I'd also be interested to hear about the other cultural changes that happened in Japanese society at this time. I know a lot of what is considered modern Japanese cuisine originated in the Meiji Era, like for example Tonkatsu, which is basically just a schnitzel or dressed pork chop Japanized, since before the Meiji Restoration meat eating moved between being frowned upon and illegal in Japan.

    This was awesome! Would love to see a series of videos covering the Japanese Empire. Maybe even going back and covering the Gempei war and Sengoku period?

    Didn't see the promo for this video. I just saw it scrolling. I know the subject and I know your channel. Liked before I watched.

    The Total War Shogun 2 style intro was the perfect setup for the era of change where Japan went from an isolationist feudal society to a modern superpower. This is one of my favorite eras in Japanese history, so I'm glad you could finally cover this magnificent period of Japan's history.

    Huh! This is really interesting. Kinda reminds me of Mexico, going through upheavals that could have ended similarly had Maximilian won.
