| Great Post my friend until this part---
Of course, there would not have been a war in the Pacific if the Japanese had not adopted the western ideas of colonialism
read the very interesting history of Japanese 'invisible conquest' of Okinawa. It's an amazing example of Japanese colonization of a possession of China! I think I recommended this book to you before? But if you get a chance, I think you will enjoy reading ' The Last Samurai ', the life and battles of Saigo Takamori written by Mark Ravina. There is some facinating research on the occupation of Okinawa in there . Enjoy! JR |
