Japan is an interesting nation, especially in World War II. Japan is an island, meaning that it has very little natural resources, especially oil and iron, things needed to be a power during that time. For Japan, it was expand or die, and they knew it. That washy Japan tried to conquer China, why they went up against Russia, and attacked lots of other minor nations in Asia and the Pacific. Japan was very good at war, they fought dozens of wars before World War II, and were victorious in almost all of them. They shocked the west when they went up against Russia and won, a tiny Asian nation beating out a world power.
