The movement of white people to colonize Asia began in earnest in 1600.I took a route to Asia around the southernmost Cape of Good Hope in Africa.This is to bring Asian spices and products to Europe for business.Until then, trade with Asia had to be mediated by the Islamic world, and was looking for a direct way to Asia.Colonization is progressing one after another in southwestern Asia, and China is also leased one after another.The opening of the Suez Canal made it even more accessible, contributing greatly to the colonization of Asia.

Russia plans to colonize East Asia by land

Russia plans to colonize Asia by land because it has the farthest route to Asia and freezes its ports in winter.Vladivostok, the final destination of the Siberian Railway, is just a stone's throw away from the Korean Peninsula.This move was a prerequisite for the Russo-Japanese War.The Siberian railway was completed in 1904 during the Russo-Japanese War.There Baltic Fleet is scheduled to enter the port .

From Japan's point of view, Asian countries at that time could not resist and became slaves to the West.This is not the case if countries maintain their independence.Why do white people come to Japan, the farthest island country from the West?If the country on the way is functioning properly, that's not the case.In other words, the independence of Asian countries will protect Asian countries from the West, and as a result, Japan will be protected.

At that time, there was no concept of cooperation between countries in Asia.On the contrary, I never imagined fighting a big white man.form an Asian allianceThis is the idea of the Greater East Asian Co-prosperity Circle.Japan chose to fight.We will defeat white forces one after another and spread modern civilization to Asian countries.

Asian countries that formed the skeleton of the country under Japanese rule

In Asian countries governed by Japan, government management and administrative roles, tax thinking, armaments, and education systems were introduced as frameworks for creating countries.White colonial rule does not do such a thing.What happens if slaves learn how to use weapons when they begin to acquire knowledge and know how to run a country?You can't do this under colonial rule.Colonial management can only be done by giving the people of the country what they can live in and working from morning till night.

There are opinions that Japan intended to rule forever, but it would not be reasonable to explain the development of each country under Japanese rule.If you look at the white colonial rule of Malaysia, Indonesia, and other countries that have been under white rule for four centuries, you can see clearly.

Taiwan, the earliest country to enter Japanese rule, has a rule of 50 years, but there are no other litigation issues such as the Japanese Military Sexual Slavery issue or any friction at present.It would be good to investigate Japan's rule of Taiwan and the friendly relationship between Japan and Taiwan after the war.

You can't see anything in world war unless you look at it from the perspective of world history.I think we have to go back at least to A.C 1600.The history of Japan and South Korea alone is just walking around in one place.
