Japan rejected the Western ways of life as it feared that it will become just another colony, so instead it focused on becoming a colonial power itself.
Explanation:
During the Meiji Restoration, Japan clearly and openly rejected the Western values, and it also cut off any Western influence. The main reason for this was the fear of the Western powers, as Japan was witnessing colonization of the neighboring areas, and it didn't wanted to be colonized.
In order to achieve this, Japan focused on industrialization, strengthening its economy, and militarization, so that the country is as powerful as possible and to let the Western powers know that they are not an opponent they would want to mess with. This worked perfectly for Japan and its ideals. Not just that it didn't became a colony, but it become so powerful that the Western powers started to fear it, and it became a colonial power itself.

C - People accused of a crime have the right to be judged by a jury of peers before receiving punishment.
Here is the clause from the Magna Carta which states that principle:
Clause 39: <em>No free man shall be seized or imprisoned, or stripped of his rights or possessions, or outlawed or exiled, or deprived of his standing in any other way, nor will we proceed with force against him, or send others to do so, except by the lawful judgement of his equals or by the law of the land.</em>
That assertion by The Magna Carta of 1215, that a person should not suffer punishment without the lawful judgment of his peers, influenced the Bill of Rights of the US Constitution. The opening lines of the 6th Amendment of the Constitution of the United States affirm that "in all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed."
