Explain the rise of Japan as an imperialists power between 1890 and 1914.

Answer

The Asian countries were mostly dominated by the European countries. Japan was the only country in Asia which had imperialistic ambitions. U.S.A. also

recognized Japan as a great power. Japan defeated China in 1895. Japan also defeated Russia in 1905. The rise of Japan as a great power even though she was following imperialist policies in Asia provided an impetus to the growth of nationalism in many Asian countries.

Her war with Russia proved that an Asian non-white country could defeat a major European Power. The emergence of USA and Japan as a great power was a dedication that the supremacy of Europe could not last long.
