🧠 Lesson Overview
This lesson will focus on Japanese imperialism during the interwar period, a pivotal era marked by the rise of Japan as a major global player. Spanning from the end of World War I to the outset of World War II, this period witnessed Japan's transformation from a regional power to an imperial force with ambitions beyond its borders. As we delve into this historical chapter, we will explore the complex factors that fueled Japan's imperialist aspirations, such as economic challenges, militarization, and a quest for resources. Additionally, we will analyze the consequences of Japan's expansionist policies on the international stage and their impact on the broader geopolitical landscape.
