Japan had limited contact with the outside world in the 19th century. It had only one port city open for foreign trade. It did not allow foreigners into Japan and did not allow its citizens to travel overseas. In 1854, the US forced Japan to sign a treaty, which opened the country to trade. By the 1870s, Japan was industrializing, building steamships, and constructing a railroad system. As the 19th century ended, Japan had changed from a closed, isolated country to a world power. Its attempts to westernize while holding on to and strengthening Japanese traditions resulted in a new national identity centered on military strength.

1) checks and balances- this idea is implemented in the constitution to ensure that no one branch of the federal government gains too much power. for example, the legislative branch(congress) can approve a bill that will then be sent to the executive branch (president). if the president does not like the bill or thinks that it violates the rights of citizens, he/she can veto the bill. vetoing the bill stops the bill from becoming a law. this check on power ensures that congress makes laws that do not violate the rights of citizens.

2) anti-federalists do not want to ratify the constitution unless it includes a bill of rights. the anti-federalists are worried that the constitution gives too much power to the federal government. having a strong central government caused problems when the us was still part of great britain. this is why the anti-federalists are fearful of this type of system.

3) federalists want a new constitution passed because it will fix america's weak political structure. before the us constitution is implemented, the constitution being used is known as the articles of confederation. this constitution has an extremely weak central government, allowing for disunity among the states.
