*Meiji: Though in retrospect it may seem like the Meiji government addressed all the relevant problems in good order, in quick time, to the contrary, during that time from 1868 until the promulgation of the Constitution in 1889, things were quite unstable. The Restoration could have fallen apart, or gone in a dramatically different direction, at any of numerous points. Further, David Lu asserts, we should not take the adulation of the emperor in many early Meiji documents at face-value - it was only after the 1895 victory over the Chinese that the early 20th century mode of emperor-worship began to settle into place. - David Lu, Japan: A Documentary History, 306.
