The nation that modernized a civilization in a single generation and astonished the world.
Empire of Japan — the sovereign state that emerged from the Meiji Restoration of 1868 and accomplished in the space of a single generation one of history's most breathtaking national transformations, a feudal archipelago of samurai domains and rice paddies reinventing itself as an industrialized world power with a constitutional government, a modern army and navy, a national railway network, universal education, and a manufacturing base capable of competing with the great powers of Europe and America, the Meiji leaders' disciplined synthesis of Western technology and Japanese spirit producing a modernization so rapid and so thorough that Japan's victory over Russia in 1905 sent a message of electrifying significance to every nation in Asia and Africa that Western dominance was not inevitable. The Empire of Japan that built the great universities, the industrial zaibatsu, the architectural landmarks of Meiji Tokyo, and the naval tradition whose seamanship and engineering reached the highest levels of world-class excellence also produced in its Taisho era a flowering of democratic politics, artistic modernism, and cosmopolitan culture that made 1920s Tokyo one of the most vibrant cities on earth, the full arc of the imperial period encompassing achievements in science, literature, art, and institution-building that laid every foundation upon which modern Japan's postwar miracle was built.
