The right answer is:

Sent Japanese observers to other nations to learn important industry advancements.

Explanation:

Japan started its drive to modernize and catch up with the West in the 1860s, when the Meiji Era starts. The local elites understood their country was backward and faced the peril of becoming a colony.
