In 1858, the United States secured trading rights with Japan through the Harris Treaty, named after American consul Townsend Harris. This agreement followed the Treaty of Kanagawa, which had opened Japanese ports to American ships in 1854. The Harris Treaty expanded trade opportunities and established a formal diplomatic relationship, allowing for greater commercial activity and the presence of American citizens in Japan. This marked a significant shift in Japan's foreign relations, moving towards engagement with Western powers.
The Japanese-American Treaty, also known as the Treaty of Kanagawa, was signed on March 31, 1854, by Commodore Matthew Perry of the United States and the Tokugawa shogunate of Japan. This treaty marked the beginning of formal diplomatic relations between the two nations, opening Japanese ports to American trade. It was significant in ending Japan's period of isolation and paving the way for further negotiations and treaties.
In the Treaty of Kanagawa, Japan made three major concessions: it opened two ports, Shimoda and Hakodate, to American trade, allowing U.S. vessels to refuel and resupply. Japan also agreed to provide safe harbor for shipwrecked American sailors and established a system of extraterritoriality, which meant that American citizens in Japan would be subject to U.S. laws rather than Japanese laws. Additionally, the treaty marked the end of Japan's period of isolation, paving the way for further foreign influence and trade agreements.
