    The document summarizes the late Tokugawa shogunate period in Japan from 1853 to 1867. It describes how Japan ended its isolationist policies and modernized, dividing into pro-imperial and shogunate factions. Major forces included the Ishin Shishi nationalist group and the shinsengumi swordsmen. Driving forces for dissent grew from resentment of outside lords and increasing anti-Western sentiment following Matthew Perry's arrival.

    The san-bugyō together sat on a council called the hyōjōsho (評定所).

    In this capacity, they were


    responsible for administering the tenryō (the shogun's estates), supervising the gundai (郡代),
    the daikan (代官) and the kura bugyō (蔵奉行), as well as hearing cases involving samurai.
    The gundai managed Tokugawa domains with incomes greater than 10,000 koku while
    the daikan managed areas with incomes between 5,000 and 10,000 koku.
    The shogun directly held lands in various parts of Japan. These were known as shihaisho (支配
    所); since the Meiji period, the term tenryō (天領, literally "Emperor's land") has become
    synonymous, because the shogun's lands were returned to the emperor.[24] In addition to the
    territory that Ieyasu held prior to the Battle of Sekigahara, this included lands he gained in that
    battle and lands gained as a result of the Summer and Winter Sieges of Osaka. Major cities as
    Nagasaki and Osaka, and mines, including the Sado gold mine, also fell into this category.

    The gaikoku bugyō were administrators appointed between 1858 and 1868. They were charged
    with overseeing trade and diplomatic relations with foreign countries, and were based in
    the treaty ports of Nagasaki and Kanagawa (Yokohama).

    Late Tokugawa shogunate (1853–1867)[edit]


    Main article: Bakumatsu

    Samurai of the Shimazu clan

    The late Tokugawa shogunate (Japanese: 幕末 Bakumatsu) was the period between 1853 and
    1867, during which Japan ended its isolationist foreign policy called sakoku and modernized
    from a feudal shogunate to the Meiji government. It is at the end of the Edo period and preceded
    the Meiji era. The major ideological and political factions during this period were divided into
    the pro-imperialist Ishin Shishi (nationalist patriots) and the shogunate forces, including the
    elite shinsengumi ("newly selected corps") swordsmen.
    Although these two groups were the most visible powers, many other factions attempted to use
    the chaos of the Bakumatsu era to seize personal power.[25] Furthermore, there were two other
    main driving forces for dissent; first, growing resentment of tozama daimyōs, and second,
    growing anti-Western sentiment following the arrival of Matthew C. Perry. The first related to
    those lords who had fought against Tokugawa forces at Sekigahara (in 1600) and had from that
    point on been exiled permanently from all powerful positions within the shogunate. The second
    was to be expressed in the phrase sonnō jōi ("revere the Emperor, expel the barbarians"). The
    end for the Bakumatsu was the Boshin War, notably the Battle of Toba–Fushimi, when pro-
    shogunate forces were defeated.[26]
