To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In 1876 the Japanese did to this secluded kingdom what Commodore Perry had done to Japan twenty-two years before. They sent a fleet to Seoul, the Corean capital, and by threat of war forced the government to open to trade the port of Fusan. In 1880 Chemulpo was made an open port. Later on the United States sent a fleet there which obtained similar privileges. Soon afterwards most of the nations of Europe were admitted to trade, and the Isolation of the Hermit Nation was at an end. Less than ten... years had sufficed to break down an isolation which had lasted for centuries. In less than twenty years after — in the year 1899 — an electric trolley railway was put in operation In the streets of Seoul — a remarkable evidence of the great change in Corean policy.
THE RISE OF JAPAN AND THE DECLINE OF CHINA 313 Corea was no sooner opened to foreign intercourse than China and Japan became rivals for influence in that country — a rivalry in which Japan showed itself the more active The Coreans became divided into two factions, a progressive one that favored Japan, and a conservative one that favored China.
