japan was able to help china improve during imperialism.
japan was able to balance learning with isolationism.
japan was able to build a strong nation - state and modernize their entire nation.

Explanation:

During the Meiji Restoration, Japan actively adopted Western technologies, military systems, and administrative models. This modernization allowed Japan to strengthen its military and economy, transforming it into a powerful nation - state. It was not about returning ceded land (the U.S. did not return all land under the Treaty of Kanagawa), helping China was not the main outcome related to its own experience with American imperialism, and it was more about active learning rather than just balancing with isolationism.

Answer:

Japan was able to build a strong nation - state and modernize their entire nation.
