To what extent did the Meiji Restoration affect the rise of fascism in Japan?
How did the end of the Meiji era affect fascism in Japan?
The end of the Meiji era did not necessarily affect fascism in Japan in a direct way, as fascist ideas continued to spread and gain support in Japan during subsequent decades. However, the Meiji era did lay the groundwork for the rise of imperialism and militarism in Japan, which fueled the growth of fascist movements.
