While the roots of Zaibatsu can be found in the Tokugawa Era, their growth was a product of the Meiji Restoration. What happened during the Meiji Restoration to foster their form and growth? How did Zaibatsu contribute to Japan's rise as a military and economic power? What led to the transformation of Zaibatsu into Keiretsu? How are Keiretsu different from Zaibatsu? And finally, how did Keiretsu contribute to the Ushinawareta (ni)-junen?
