		I thought "European powers" did not colonize "civilized nations" (aka, each other), and the formalization of the Thai royalty, as well as the scramble to look western and civilized in the early Meiji, were simply both nations' ways of being classified as "civilized nations" and thereby avoiding colonization.
		Also, I thought that the whole idea of the Namamugi Incident was to impress upon wandering Westerners that Japanese were not to be ignored or taken lightly in their own nation.
		Before the arrival of Perry, their policy of murdering all foreigners upon arrival (exceptions made for specific traders in Nagasaki), also probably helped create the impression that Japan was not up for grabs.

		Two short years after the introduction of horse racing to Japan in 1859, the Japanese Government commissioned an English architect to build a racetrack and wooden grandstand, completed in 1866, on the site in Negishi that would later come to be known as CFAY Yokohama Detachment.
		The commission was prompted by requests by the foreign community for a place where they could enjoy equestrian pursuits in safety, having been deeply disturbed by the infamous Namamugi Incident, which occurred when, in 1862, Japanese bodyguards killed four Englishmen who passed on horseback in front of a daimyo procession.
		Accepting the request, the Negishi Race Course, officially inaugurated in 1867, was initially open only to foreign jockeys, but soon came to include Japanese jockeys, as horse racing quickly became popular entertainment for the native and foreign population alike.
