China could not fight Japan.
Japan attacked and occupied Manchuria in 1931. Japan launched a full scale attack on China in 1937.
japan was desperate for resources.
China was invaded, at least in part, by Japan
Yes, Japan bombed Shanghai particularly. However, China also bombed the Japanese Navy and ground troops.
No, Japan is much smaller than China population wise and in terms of area. Area: China- 9,596,961 km2 Japan- 377,915 km2 This means China is 9,219,046 km2 larger than Japan, or about 25.5 times larger than Japan. Population: China- 1,336,718,015 Japan- 126,475,664 This means China has 1,210,242,351 more people, or about 10.5 times the population of Japan.
yes
was Japan less powerful than china in 1900
China, moreso than Japan, had become controlled by European powers, which were militarily stronger. Japan participated more fully in the Industrial Revolution, and began to emulate the western powers in their imperialistic pursuits. China, Korea, Manchuria, and Indochina were soon targets of the Japanese as well as of European countries.
Russia is MUCH bigger than China and Japan in the geographical sense. The population of China is far-larger than either of the others.
Cause China is the biggest country in asia. if you mixed philippines,japan and singapore.. china is still bigger than them,..
yes, China is one of the oldest civilizations.
Because during the time Japan and China started trading so Japan received gun powder, also the west was no friend of China but kept their trading routes (including weaponary) to Japan. Because of china's being so enclosed and tight they hardly got any new technology except what they made by themselves
Because Japan was a stronger nation than Japan :D hope it helps
Japan has the best technology
Nope. For sure. :)
yes
