Commodore Perry's visit to Japan in 1853 made Japan realize that they had better become industrialized or else they'd be over-run by industrialized nations. Japan built up it's industry to compete with all outside nations by the 1860's. By 1894 they were ready to test out their new equipment by warring with China. They re-fined their industrial equipment with a war against Russia in 1904. After 1905, Japan was a world power.
