Your question refers to the Perry Expedition, which was a military and diplomatic expedition to Japan. This expedition was carried away during the Bakumatsu era in Japan (which refers to the last years of the Tokugawa Era, from 1603 - 1868).

This expedition involved two ships from the US Navy that had the main task to open new trade agreements and establish contact with the government of Japan.

Before returning in 1854, Commodore Matthew Perry spent a whole year trying to negotiate a treaty with the Japanese government, and at the end of this period, he did return with a total of ten vessels and 1600 men. His fleet now included also more ships, among which was the USS Lexington, and USS Macedonian.

His main goal was to convince the Japanese to sign the treaty, and once he reached Japan with the new fleet in 1854, he then returned giving some time for the Japanese to think. In the end, the result was an agreement between both parts, and the treaty was signed.

Happy to help you!

Have an excellent 2019! :)

When Perry came back to Japan, he brought more ships than he had in 1853 to convince the Japanese to negotiate

The treaty was approved as a consequence of stress from U.S. Commodore Matthew C. Perry.  He traveled into Tokyo Bay with a fleet of warships in July 1853 and asked for the opening of Japanese´s ports to United States ships for accumulations. Hethen left Japan seeking to give the government a few months to think its judgment.

What two factors led to a larger workforce available to new industries?
Strike441 [17]

Answer:Several factors led to the rise of U.S. industrialization in the late 1800’s. New technologies like steam engines, railroads, and telegraphs made communication and transportation easier. The ability to source and transport materials across the country with ease turned many local businesses into national companies. Workplace innovations, such as the assembly-line method of production, allowed these companies to produce goods on a mass scale.

First, we should be clear about the nature of the industrial boom that occurred in the wake of the Civil War. It was the rise of heavy industry and the production of capital goods that characterized the early phases of industrial growth during this period, and by far the biggest factor contributing to growth was the expansion of the railroads.

Railroads expanded exponentially after the Civil War, and their rapid spread facilitated and spurred industrial growth in several ways. They led to a demand for coal, timber, and especially steel, the most important commodity in this new industrial age. They connected markets, enabling businesses like the meatpacking industry to rapidly increase distribution and production. Moreover, their corporate structures formed a paradigm and a model for other industries.

In addition to this new industry, which spawned many others, industrialization was fueled by the massive influx of immigrants from Europe and elsewhere that provided a large industrial labor force. Another factor was the rapid proliferation of new technologies, a cause and an effect of industrial development. Electric light, assembly lines, the Bessemer steel process, and the telephone were just a few of the myriad innovations that helped spur industrial growth.

A final, often-overlooked factor contributing to industrialization was the role played by the federal government. In the wake of the Civil War, the government spurred the growth of railroads by setting aside massive grants of land, providing subsidies, and other measures. The government also established high tariffs and created a generally pro-business economic climate that facilitated industrial growth.
