Answer:

The Battle of Okinawa began on April 1, 1945 with the American invasion of the Japanese island of Okinawa and ended on June 30, 1945. From the Japanese perspective, Okinawa was the last line of defense to stand in the way of an Allied invasion of the main Japanese islands. Accordingly, the Allies planned to use Okinawa for air support for the planned invasion of the main islands. The fighting ended with the capture of the island by American troops. More than two-thirds of the Japanese defenders died in the course of the battle. There were also high casualties among the civilian population and on the American side. But it was also the first time that Japanese soldiers surrendered by the thousands.

Explain the difference between china and japan, in the 19th and 20th centuries.

professor190 [17]

Well Japan had a long relationship with the Dutch and it started in 1640s, they also started learning from the Dutch since then.Christianity eventually lost the Qing Emperors' trust. In 1746, the Qian-long Emperor issued an edict which forbid the spread of Christianity in China, as a result many missionaries were sent back.The Dutch mostly focused on business,the Japanese were able to learn western science without the tension of converting to another religion.
As for China missionaries wanted to convert, and paid attention to improving the relationship and adapting the rituals,the Chinese tended to be more reluctant in accepting them and their science that they brought.
China was stronger in Confucianism, and didn't want to tolerant the foreigners. Japan, had a more open minded history which enabled them to be very malleable in this transition.
