The event that most directly led to the Meiji Restoration is the **Boshin War**. This civil war (1868-1869) was fought between forces loyal to the Tokugawa shogunate and those seeking to return power to the Emperor, ultimately resulting in the restoration of imperial rule and the beginning of the Meiji era.
