In the first part of this unit, you learned about how, during the mid-late 1800s, Japan changed dramatically from an isolated so
ciety that was based on traditional ways of life. What did they transform themselves into? What were two key events or actions they took to make this dramatic transformation happen? Write a paragraph that describes the change Japan underwent during this time period and how they accomplished this change; include two specific events or actions that helped the change progress, as well as evidence (exact quotes) from your text or online course as proof.
The dramatic change Japan went through was that they became a imperial power by 1910. Japan forcefully acquired Taiwan in 1895 after the Sino-Japanese war, Korea first as a protectorate in 1905 then the colony in 1910, and the Kwantung leased territories in Manchuria in 1905. The theories that can explain why Japan became imperialistic could've been from the the second idea, which is focused with obtaining raw materials, makes sense because Japan's growing population and modernity necessitated more natural resources. Japan's goal to become an imperial power is explained by the last argument, which is founded on nationalism. As nationalism grew, Tokutomi Soho, a Japanese writer, wrote, "Japan was also concerned about its security; it invaded Korea not only for Korea's natural resources, but also to keep western countries out- forces that could become a threat to Japan." Japan had expanded its might by capturing those three foreign territories. "the most progressive, developed, civilized and power nation in the orient." By acquiring those three foreign territories, Japan had increased its wealth, power, security and prestige. Japan's new navy helped the once-prestige nation become an imperial power. This information was what help Japan become the big imperial power also known as "the powerhouse", I got this information from the 3.02 powerhouse in Asia lesson.
