Answer:
Second Sino-Japanese War, (1937–45), conflict that broke out when China began a full-scale resistance to the expansion of Japanese influence in its territory (which had begun in 1931).
Explanation:
The first World War ended with the Treaty of Versailles, which ruined all of what Germany had gained from the war. Included was that Germany couldn't have an army of any great size nor power, large portions of the territory gained was taken, it forced Germany to pay for the damages which were caused, and to admit that the war itself was Germany's fault. Each part of this Treaty angered Germany. So when the Nazi's became popular, it appeared that the Nazi's (who were fascist) might be able to abrogate the treaty and Germany to what they thought was its rightful place as a major power, the Germans supported them.
