Answer and Explanation:
According to Buddhism, which has deep connections with Taoism, the origin of all suffering is desire. In chapter 33 of the Tao Te Ching we read, “Those who know they have enough are truly wealthy.” <u>Desiring means thinking you do not have enough, and that is a thought that is bound to bring unhappiness and suffering along with it.
</u>
I have noticed that about myself a long time ago, and was actually relieved to realize there was a whole philosophy built around this idea. <u>Desiring too much was not good for me. I was never peaceful; something always seemed to be missing.</u> I do not mean we should not have goals. Having a goal gives us motivation and reason to be disciplined. Achieving a goal makes us feel competent and capable enough to do more and better. But, to paraphrase Lao Tsu, we should not dwell in it. Once we achieve a certain goal, we should move on, let go of it.
<u>What I mean by desire is that restlessness that seems to hover, constantly, and that takes us nowhere.</u> It is the petty wishes and envies we have when we compare ourselves to influencers and friends on social media. It is the dissatisfaction we feel when we look at our own lives only to see how boring it is – or how boring we have convinced ourselves it is. Desire, in this context, is that endless hunger for more, although we do not know what more means. It is our incapacity to see how wealthy we truly are.
“Whoever knows contentment will be at peace forever,” says Lao Tsu in chapter 46 of the Tao Te Ching. <u>Once I tried to desire less, I became a happier being.</u> By choice, I began to spend less time on social media. I also began to look at others’ lives from a critical perspective, questioning how much of what they post and say is actually true. I reminded myself that I am healthy, capable, strong, and intelligent, and that waking up every day like that is a blessing.<u> I realized peace, in every sense of the word but especially peace of mind, is the only thing once should desire if it is impossible to not desire something.</u>

Correct answer: CHINA
Context/details:
In 1931, Japan invaded and occupied Manchuria, the northeaster region of China. The invasion followed an explosion that blew up a portion of railroad tracks near the city of Mukden. (Thus it became known as "The Mukden Incident.") The railway was owned by the Japanese, who had invested in development in the region. Japan blamed Chinese nationalists for the explosion, but others thought the bombing may have been done by Japanese military personnel to provide Japan with an excuse for invading and occupying Manchurian territory. The Japanese declared the region to be a new country, independent of China. which the Japanese called Manchuko. In reality, the territory was not independent but was controlled by the occupying Japanese army.
At a meeting of the League of Nations in February, 1933, the League voted on a report that officially laid blame for events in Manchuria on Japan. The report said that Japan should withdraw its troops from Manchuria and restore the country to the governing authority of China. When the vote was taken regarding the report, on February 24, 1933, every nation represented in the League voted in approval except for Japan. After the 42 to 1 vote, the leader of Japan's delegation at the League, Yosuke Matsuoka, said: "The Japanese government is obliged to feel that they have now reached the limit of their endeavors to co-operate with the league regarding Chinese-Japanese differences. It is a source of profound regret and disappointment to the Japanese government that the draft report has now been adopted by this assembly. ... Japan finds it impossible to accept the report adopted by the assembly, and she has taken pains to point out that the recommendations in the report cannot be considered such as would secure peace in that part of the world."
Japan officially withdrew from the League of Nations on that day. In leaving the assembly hall, Matsuoka said, "This means the withdrawal of our delegation from the League. We are not coming back." (Reported by United Press International, February 24, 1933.)
