Once in 1870 in Japan ended the civil war, the government had decided to strengthen the army and navy of the example of European countries.This is not surprising, as the army of any country should have a certain potential, which will be at the service of the state.It so happened that at this same time, China has set a similar goal, which, in fact, was the beginning of the rivalry for supremacy in the East.Although this rivalry did not stop almost never.That is why the Sino-Japanese war has many implications.
Rivalry no outward as long as there was a conflict on the subject of the priority position in Korea.She was between China and Japan, so the Sino-Japanese War had every reason for its inception.After all, the two countries did not want to yield to each other in domination in this region.It was caused by the elementary principles of economic development, when in the presence of land and ports could easily develop any economy.So, in June 1894 (officially just the first of August), the First Sino-Japanese War, which lasted two years, ended with the victory of Japan and the signing of a peace treaty with China.As a result: the partition of China on the one hand and the active development of Japan, the creation of the colonial empire - on the other.
war between Japan and China, which ended together with the end of World War II, has a parallel title: "Second Sino-Japanese War."In July, the thirty-seventh Japan, which has a well-trained and less well-equipped army, started a war against China, using as a pretext the conflict a shooting that occurred at the Marco Polo Bridge, which, of course, accused Chinese troops.But to say that the Chinese side began this conflict is impossible, as the historians in this regard are several opinions.For China, the declaration of war was sudden, and, of course, the Japanese troops immediately began to win victory after victory.China has lost a significant part of the North, Tianjin and Beijing and later Shanghai.
situation the country has been greatly complicated by the fact that Italy and Germany had a strong support to the invaders.That is why the Sino-Japanese War took place on the same type of scenario where advance was known result.But the Chinese people are not inferior to the enemy, and he was not going to obey.USSR took an active part in the hostilities, speaking on the side of China.US and UK Viewers of China for their own selfish interests, also chose to support was the weak side.As we all know from the history of the Second World War, the weak side, with good support from the time it turned out to be strong.
position of Japan has become quite vulnerable, but, nevertheless, in 1944, Japanese troops were able to win a long-awaited victory, seizing vast territories.The Chinese government is in no hurry this time to capitulate and almost forty-five until August, remained difficult, unstable and tense situation.Chinese war have always been strained, as opponents in the region is sufficient, and a huge area of the country.But the Chinese people, and this time was able to show his enemies that they are also entitled to respect.Army as one and the other states have been weakened, and this was also the reason that no one decisive action taken.
final completion of the second Sino-Japanese War took place after a complete surrender of Japan, when the Soviet Union entered the war in the Far East, and the Kwantung Army was defeated.More Japan and China were fighting and today are partners in many sectors of the economy!
