Answer:

When the United States sends a naval delegation, led by Commodore Matthew Perry, to "open" Japanese ports in 1853, the Japanese are well aware of the "Unequal Treaties" that have been imposed upon China in the previous ten years (since the Opium War of 1839-42) as a result of the superior military power of the Western nations. The Japanese respond to the challenge of the West.

Reform-minded samurai, reflecting the enormous changes that have taken place in the preceding Tokugawa period, effect political change. They launch the reform movement under the guise of restoring the emperor to power, thereby eliminating the power of the shogun, or military ruler, of the Tokugawa period. The emperor's reign name is Meiji; hence the title, "Meiji Restoration" of 1868.

The Japanese carry out this modernization by very deliberate study, borrowing, and adaptation of Western political, military, technological, economic, and social forms — repeating a pattern of deliberate borrowing and adaptation seen previously in the classical period when Japan studied Chinese civilization (particularly in the 7th century to 8th century).

Economic, political, and social changes that have taken place during the preceding 250 years of peace under the Tokugawa shogunate (1600-1868) lay the basis for the rapid transformation of Japan into a modern industrial power, with a constitution, a parliament, a national, compulsory education system, a modern army and navy, roads, trains, and telegraph — in less than 50 years.

What can be used in the Senate to stop a bill from being passed
timofeeve [1]
A filibuster can be in place by a party, it's when a group of Senators take turns speaking. They can pass it on to other Senators, which no one can object do, and each Senator does not have a limited amount of time. They can even read from a phone book if they want to. While a Senator is talking, no one can interrupt the Senator. A vote can stop the filibuster and force a vote, called the cloture.

Ideologically people who believe in maximum personal freedom and maximum economic freedom are called:
rodikova [14]

Ideologically people who believe in maximum personal freedom and maximum economic freedom are called D. Libertarians.

<h3>Who are the Libertarians?</h3>

The Libertarians belong to the political philosophy called Libertarianism.

Libertarians seek to maximize social autonomy, and political and economic freedoms while minimizing state powers and authority.

Libertarians emphasize free and voluntary association, freedom of choice, and individualism.

Unlike Libertarians, Progressives allow gradual societal improvement over time.

Socialists emphasize the collective welfare of the people, while Statists advocate centralism, authoritarianism, totalitarianism, corporatism, collectivism, and moralism as their social, political, and economic ideologies.

Thus, ideologically people who believe in maximum personal freedom and maximum economic freedom are called D. Libertarians.
