The Meiji era, which lasted from 1868 to 1912, marked a period of rapid modernization and westernization in Japan following the end of the Tokugawa shogunate. The Meiji government implemented significant reforms in various sectors, including the military, education, and industry, leading to the establishment of a centralized state and a modern economy. This era also saw the adoption of a constitution, the introduction of a parliamentary system, and Japan's emergence as an imperial power, culminating in victories in conflicts such as the First Sino-Japanese War and the Russo-Japanese War. Overall, the Meiji era transformed Japan into a major player on the global stage.

During the Meiji era, Japan decided to model its strong central government after that of Germany. The Meiji leaders were particularly inspired by the German constitution and legal framework, which emphasized a strong executive and a centralized authority. This influence helped Japan modernize its political structure and strengthen its nation-state in the face of Western imperialism.
