There are a great number of articles in the British Newspapers about Japanese situation in the 1860s. It shows that the British stratum of society had a strong interest in the situation. In Japan, the hostilities between the Tokugawa Shogunate and the Choshu Clan came out into the open in the 1860s. The Tokugawa Shogunate sent their troops to the Choshu territory twice, and in the end, the war broke out in 1866. One popular theory says that the French supported the Tokugawa Shogunate, while the Britain supported the Choshu Clan.
