Description

In 1902 Great Britain and Japan formalized a naval alliance that had been maturing for nearly a decade. Japan’s navy had been modeled on Great Britain’s right down to its uniforms and signaling systems. In 1910 a massive public exhibition known as the “Japan-British Exhibition” was staged in London to mark the success of the alliance.
