Japan, Empire, Imperialism, Great Powers, Korea, China, PoliticsJapanese imperialism was an important factor of the policy in the Far East in the first half of the
20th century. Due to its victories in the First Sino-Japanese War and the Russo-Japanese war, Japan
obtained a considerable empire on the Asian mainland. In this step it followed as the only Asian
nation the European imperial countries. Japanese imperialism is therefore sometimes considered as
an extension of the European one. On the other hand, Japanese overseas expansion was motivated by
quite different reasons — especially by an effort to ensure national security. It also used completely
different rhetoric of Pan-Asianism and anti-colonialism. The building of empire was perceived
differently than the same process in European countries. The shape of Japanese imperialism was
therefore quite distinct and had a completely different legacy as in the case of Europe.
