Imperialism not only influenced the colonial territories to improve themselves or to promote the motherland's reign of power, but also had a significant impact on the culture, education, environment and people's political systems. Japan and Britain were two imperial systems that contrasted each other in many respects, but they also had strikingly similar qualities that helped them become strong imperial powers that needed each other to continue their position among the other.
