Since I’m the only one responding, we can be sure no one is interested. Enjoy your weird, but definitely false, ideas.

What part is false mah man? The small details about the opium wars don't change the big picture. The US sailed into Japan's ports, threatened them with their battleships, ignored their requests to leave, and ultimately strong-armed them into a trade agreement they never wanted to be a part of.

That much is irrefutable.
