Please tell me when Perry went in and when the Edo period ended.

Perry

The Edo period (江戸時代 Edo jidai?) or Tokugawa period (徳川時代 Tokugawa jidai?) is the period between 1603 and 1868 in the history of Japan, when Japanese society was under the rule of the Tokugawa shogunate and the country's 300 regional daimyo. The period was characterized by economic growth, strict social order, isolationist foreign policies, a stable population, popular enjoyment of arts and culture, recycling of materials, and sustainable forest management. It was a sustainable and self-sufficient society which was based on the principles of complete utilization of finite resources.[1] The shogunate was officially established in Edo on March 24, 1603, by Tokugawa Ieyasu. The period came to an end with the Meiji Restoration on May 3, 1868, after the fall of Edo.

Matthew Perry forced his way in in 1852. What is your point ,if any ?

My impression is that you wish you had the magic power to evaporise posters whose opinions refus ...

No, you got the wrong impression!  As I said, no one should delete comments he doesn't like, even from his blog, and I always abide by that, have never deleted any comments,  not even the most nasty ones from my blog, although I have that right!

on the contrary, Sean expressed surprise when all the comments were deleted from that thread.

Ok, I was drawing my conclusion from what I know of posters who delete other proples' comments. I have not read his blog.  But here is a quedtion, how can anyone delete posts is  hi blog?  My understanding is that he,  and only he himself can do that, not even cd, as they have said they won't delete comments in a blog.
