Paper Abstract: Examines goals & effects of three 18th-19th Cent. agreements between England & Japan, focusing on resulting Japanese modernization & development. Paper Introduction: INTRODUCTION Japan was a country isolated form the rest of the world for most of her history. Japan is an island, making it difficult to access, and this fact also separated it from most of the history of other Asian nations. This began to change when the first European ships arrived and sought trade with different parts of Asia. Japan resisted for a time, but eventually the Japanese began to see certain defense and trade advantages in making alliances with different countries. One of the major sources for this effort was a fear of Russia and a desire to keep Russia at bay. The United States was the first to try to open Japan to the outside world, but Britain also became interested in a defense and trade alliance with Japan and with China and so sought the means to accomplish such an agreement.
