  I've always wondered how Rome was able to make armor, spears, and swords to supply their huge military in a time before industrialization...it may be a good video idea.

  Thanks for this.  This is an event that isn’t talked about at all on most history sites.  I knew this happened obviously but the particulars are just rarely talked about.  It’s just when WW2 started we see on maps that Japan already had Korea and I’ve wondered how did that happen and when.

  Seriously looking at the comments of Japanese being in denial and justifying colonialism is no different from how Europeans saw the native Americans or Africans. And thinking they did the right thing to black people or native saying they “civilized” them. After learning about ww2 it makes no sense how Japanese continue to think they did the right thing when they committed war crimes in Asia. Downplaying and being dismissive about occupation and colonialism is ridiculous in Japans part to behave like victims

  my great-great-grandfather  took whole family and escaped from Korean penisula when Japan annexed in 1910. 35 years later, Independent finally came, My grandfather came back to home. 5 years later war broke out. he participate in a war 3 years.  "Even after all the Japanese domination, Koreans are still Koreans" I appreciate that.

  During this period, the Korean Independence Movement were very active in Hawai'i, USA, mainly immigrants and political exiles from Japanese occupied Korea

  I have forgotten a lot of Korean history but as young growing up I don’t recalled much talk about annexations by Japanese so I discovered after I was older in America.

  This problem can be understood by reading the book of the English woman Isabella Bird . <br>She was a traveler and traveled to Japan and the Korean Peninsula in the 1890s . &nbsp;<br>You can see the situation of Japan and the Korean Peninsula at that time and their thinking circuits . <br>It is still the same today .

  In 1875 Japanese battleship, that was purchased from the uk, came to Korea and showed their advanced cannon system threating. Meanwhile Korean king was still reluctant to be acquainted with western countries and some radical progressive congressmen urged the king to make a treaty with Japan so they could also be modernized like Japan
