This was so interesting — I really appreciated the in-depth examples and got a good refresher on my history! When the Americans arrived in Japan in 1850, what was it that made the Japanese decide they had to open up again? Anything specific?
The Japanese were forced to reopen themselves by the American naval squadron, which had an absolutely overwhelming firepower due to its technological superiority. Upon seeing the technological gap between their own military capabilities and those of the Americans, the Japanese realized they had no choice.

Ahhh right. Makes sense.
Kudos for the researches to compile your forthcoming book.
Just to say: the Catholic Church, and the substantive Church as an institution should be gramatically defined as "it" not "she".
Thanks, I will correct it, It's a bad adaptation of the rule in French
