Question

Which was NOT a reason to target Japan as a new market?

Answer 1

Answer:

D. Easy to attack and target due to small size​.

Explanation:

Japan was not officially colonized by Western powers but was itself a colonizer. It is an island country and has a strategically important position in the pacific ocean. It is a vital access point to other Asian countries. Western colonial ambitions had always kept an eye for it but never got its full control. Nevertheless, it has undergone formal semi-colonial circumstances, and Western colonialism has deeply affected modern Japan in several respects.
