The European Imperialists And Japan

imperialism depending whether it’s from an imperialist from itself or from colonized people.Imperialism is when a strong country conquers and takes over a weaker country. The area that is taken over is known as a colony.During the 19th century (1800s), many nations such as Great Britain, France, Germany,Italy.and Japan took over lands throughout Africa and Asia. These nations adapted this ruling idea from the white man's burden which is a poem that encourages European nations to improve the colonized country

As imperialism continues throughout the early 1900s, nothing is resolved. Imperialist powers continues to depleted the foreign lands of the raw materials and colonized people will continue to suffer. Only the strongest, the imperialist powers will rule the world. As nationalism grows, the citizens of the European nations show pride and love toward their country, along with this developed Social Darwinism, where the Europeans viewed themselves as more superior human beings, all this led to New Imperialism

united people to repel imperialist influences from their nation. However, it was also nationalism that drove Europeans to engage in their imperialistic practices to gain necessary resources for their industrialization. As a reaction towards imperialism, people became anti-imperialists to fight against the imperialist ideals of the West and their desire to exploit other regions through their use of violence. One of the ways anti-imperialists united against the Imperialists was through the feeling

Yet as Andre Schmid and Jordan Sand contest, this notion is replete with problems. Not only does this interpretation gloss over the historical fact of Japan as an imperialist and colonialist power, but it also dismisses the dynamic embedded in history that shaped the trajectory of Japan from an empire to a nation-state as seen today.
