Answer 2

Answer:

d. Taiwan and Korea

Explanation:

Throughout much of its history, Japan was isolated from the West. However, in 1853, Japan began to get more involved in foreign affairs. With this came a policy of aggressive expansion. Japan's imperialism resembled that of many countries at the time. The country's efforts reaped some rewards, such as the acquisition of Taiwan in 1895 and Korea in 1905.
