History of Japan

[yumeitsumo]

I want to do a portfolio or essay about the history of Japan. But I don't know how to approach my research. I gathered some information. But I don't know where to start. Help me?

Hi yume.

You better focus on After-Tokugawa-era because it was the times Japan met West.
This is an interesting summary in English:

You've tried Wikipedia, right?

If you go to school, there's probably a library full of books and perhaps even access to electronic scholastic articles at your disposal, free of charge.
