Commodore Matthew Perry was sent to Japan in 1852 with four warships to open up communications with the Japanese.
Because Matthew Perry unlike other Perry's was amazing when it cam to speaking with asians. Most in his time would use racial slurs such as "wide eyed ninja" or "short limbed noodle eater" but Perry had a way with words, and a way with his hands. He slept his way through the Japanese ranks, even with men, until he finally blackmailed the shogun into letting America trade with Japan. Thus ends the tale of Matthew Perry, he died a horrible death from all of the STD's he aquired on his journey.

President Millard Fillmore sent a naval expedition to Japan to attempt to have diplomatic and commercial treaties signed. The treaties purpose were to open Japan up to the Western world. There was also an intent to make sure that ship-wrecked sailors who washed ashore in Japanese territory would be treated humanely.
