They established what could be referred to as a "league of friendship" and a quasi-constitution for the states that were sovereign and independent subsequent to the American Revolution.

Differences in Japanese and U.S. Schools
Overhearing a teacher say "Education for Japanese and American students is mostly the same." got me thinking. Is it really? I did some research on the topic and was shocked at what I found.
