Japanese nationalist thinking in the Meiji era
During the final days of the Tokugawa shogunate, the nationalist ideas of prominent daimyo, such as Mito Nariaki and others continued to develop, with some promoting fukko (a return to the past) and osei (the Emperor's supreme authority). This was a Japanese reaction to foreign inroads since the arrival of Commodore Matthew Perry and the Kanagawa Accord.
