The actions of Commodore Perry helped Japan in 1854, because Perry helped the Japanese make contact with the outside world. This was because Japan has often in history had isolationist and nationalist ideologies. This is due to its geographical location (being an island) and that foreigners were looked at with much skepticism. He did this through the Convention of Kanagawa where he ended Japan's seclusion and opened up ports to American vessels.
