Filmore sent Perry to force Japan, by impressing them with U.S. naval power into opening their (Japanese) ports to U.S. trade. He sent a really polite letter to the emperor accompanied by enough firepower to level Edo (Tokyo).

hey, it's me anyway he wanted to let trade open in japan and then this caused a industrial revolution for japan because people started getting scared of samurais because this made the samurais angry.
