How did Japan gain territory and control of areas of China during WW1?

History

Answer:

Japan participated in World War I from 1914 to 1918 in an alliance with Entente Powers and played an important role in securing the sea lanes in the West Pacific and Indian Oceans against the Imperial German Navy as a member of the Allies. Politically, the Japanese Empire seized the opportunity to expand its sphere of influence in China, and to gain recognition as a great power in postwar geopolitics.

Japan's military, taking advantage of the great distances and Imperial Germany's preoccupation with the war in Europe, seized German possessions in the Pacific and East Asia, but there was no large-scale mobilization of the economy.[1] Foreign Minister Katō Takaaki and Prime Minister Ōkuma Shigenobu wanted to use the opportunity to expand Japanese influence in China. They enlisted Sun Yat-sen (1866–1925), then in exile in Japan, but they had little success.[2] The Imperial Japanese Navy, a nearly autonomous bureaucratic institution, made its own decision to undertake expansion in the Pacific. It captured Germany's Micronesian territories north of the equator, and ruled the islands until they were transitioned to civilian control in 1921. The operation gave the Navy a rationale for enlarging its budget to double the Army budget and expanding the fleet. The Navy thus gained significant political influence over national and international affairs.[3]

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

President Bush surely based his decision on previous jurisprudence by the Supreme Court. In 1899, the Court was asked to make an interpretation of the religion clause of the First Amendment. It was a case involving federal financing through a grant for the construction of a hospital that was going to be run by a Catholic order. The Court saw the hospital as a secular institution and charted as such by Congress, not a religious one, and in this way it avoided the constitutional issue.

Though uphelding the strict lay character of the state, the Court has not closed the door to all types of aid for certain activities by religious organizations.

Pls thx i really dont understand this question
lora16 [44]
The Articles of Confederation were structured to allow the federal government very little power for example the federal government had almost no control over taxes and each state had its own individual government. This is because the American colonists had suffered greatly at the hands of the British government because they made them do things they did not want to but had no control over, hence the structure of the Articles of Cony
