Matthew Perry's journey to Japan in 1853 had a profound impact on U.S.-Japan relations and Japan's subsequent modernization. His arrival with a fleet of "black ships" forced Japan to open its ports to American trade after centuries of isolation. This event marked the beginning of the end for Japan's sakoku policy, leading to increased foreign influence and eventually sparking the Meiji Restoration, which transformed Japan into a modern industrialized nation. Perry's expedition thus set the stage for significant political and social changes in Japan.
