Answer:
Japan practiced a strict isolation policy up until the signing of the Kanagawa treaty on March 31, 1854. This opened the borders of Japan and forced them to trade with the rest of the world. Japan feared the escalation of the situation and succumbed to the United States and opened its ports for trade. After that Japan modernized and grew in power.
