When the first Europeans arrived in the 1500s, particularly the Portuguese, the Japanese responded with a mix of curiosity and cautious engagement. They were intrigued by foreign goods and technologies, such as firearms, which they began to adopt. However, this initial openness gradually shifted as Japan sought to limit foreign influence, leading to the Sakoku policy in the early 17th century, which restricted foreign contact and trade.

When war broke out in Europe in 1914, the United States initially maintained a stance of neutrality. President Woodrow Wilson emphasized the importance of staying out of the conflict, reflecting a widespread sentiment among Americans who were wary of foreign entanglements. However, various factors, including economic ties to the Allied powers and unrestricted submarine warfare by Germany, gradually shifted public opinion and government policy, leading the U.S. to enter the war in 1917.
Eisenhower's military policy was shaped by nuclear technology. Due to the concept of M.A.D. (Mutually Assured Destruction, though I am not sure if that term was in use during his administration), nuclear weapons became the focus of national defense.

Key events and legislation that have shifted the balance of power between Congress and the president include the War Powers Resolution of 1973, which aimed to limit presidential military authority without congressional approval, and the Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974, which strengthened Congress's role in budgetary matters. Additionally, major events like the Watergate scandal led to increased oversight and scrutiny of presidential power. Supreme Court rulings, such as United States v. Nixon, have also reinforced congressional authority by affirming the principle of checks and balances.

Some powers that were traditionally reserved for Congress but have shifted to the president include the authority to engage in military actions without a formal declaration of war, often justified under the War Powers Resolution. Additionally, the president has increasingly taken on a significant role in foreign policy, negotiating treaties and agreements that may not always receive Congressional approval. Furthermore, executive orders allow the president to implement policies unilaterally, sometimes bypassing legislative processes. This shift reflects a broader trend of expanding executive power in areas traditionally governed by Congress.
