Edo, later Tokyo, was the capital city of Japan.
History
19th century
In the 1820s, the Shogun Tokugawa Ienari ruled Japan from Edo.
In the mid-19th century, United States warships sailed into Edo Harbour and demanded a trade agreement with the hitherto isolationist Japan. The shogun accepted the demand, ending the policy of Sakoku. Edo was soon renamed Tokyo as Japan began to modernise. (AUDIO: The Barbarians and the Samurai)
