There is evidence to support that the US was both internationalist in their action as well as wanting isolation. The demand of the country was to return to isolationism and 'return to normalcy'. However in a global market, economically the US could not isolate as our money was tied to the money of other nations. Therefore politically, the US could not completely step away either. Circular loans given to Germany to pay reparation brought the US closer to Europe economically. The Washington Conference was an international conference but the goal was to reduce arms to prevent future war and involvement. Additionally, the US refused to sign the Treaty of Versailles and did not join the League of Nations. Domestically, the country also instituted immigration restrictions in hopes of preventing world troublemakers from getting into the US.

The story of the 47 Ronin is a real historical account of Japan. Its author wanted to reinstate in the modern times that there is more to human life than the repetitive existence and work. People must find in themselves a deeper sense of existence, a deeper meaning in life, an unending adherence to a long history of culture and loyalty. The Japanese ronin existed in an era in Japan where there were no more wars to fight. The samurai was regarded as a warrior class that earns deep respect from the people. In fears that the Japanese spirit might be slowly slipping away, it is very timely that the story of the 47 Ronin is retold. Should the author have existed in feudalistic Europe, the story would have been different because in Europe, treatment of knights is very different. The knights were given land titles to govern. Knighthood is only given to the noblemen. It is more of a status quo rather than a binding story for loyalty and respect.
