1. Japan was ultranationalistic, viewing their culture as superior to every other.
2. The Russo-German pact was interesting since it kept the other country neutral if one were to get involved in a war.
3. Stalin fixed his military leadership even though his purges were the cause of why it happened in the first place.

2) Japan believed they were superior culture. European technology and a centralized state also catalyzed their attack, allowing them to actually take over Korea and parts of China. Germany attacked because they were humiliated after WWI and sought to redeem themselves as a global superpower.]]> 2021-03-19 15:25:45 UTC https://padlet.com/eanderson16/qx180vr4vl9axpce/wish/1330233765 3-2-1 23mmayuga https://padlet.com/eanderson16/qx180vr4vl9axpce/wish/1330235535 3.1 Despite Japan's constant conflict with China, China maintained their code of non-resistance

- Japan believed to have been the most sophisticated and superior to other countries. 
- China managed to not resist Japan's constant military attacks. 
- Japan's economy was declining considering their large amount of people and their equally as large military. 
2 reasons why either Japan/Germany attacked: 
- For Japan, during the Second Sino Japanese War, they launched their attack after realizing that one of their men had gone missing and the Chinese refused to let the search the city. 
For Germany, after signing the Non-Aggression Pact with Russia, they attacked and almost decimated Poland in order to gain new land and resources for German industry, in hopes of ending the German depression and its humiliation after WWI. ]]> 2021-03-19 15:26:39 UTC https://padlet.com/eanderson16/qx180vr4vl9axpce/wish/1330238110 3-2-1 23rho https://padlet.com/eanderson16/qx180vr4vl9axpce/wish/1330238451 3.Japan was a highly ultranationalist state.

- When met with resistance from the Chinese, Japan committed brutal acts against civilians
- The Germans used a new military strategy called Blitzkrieg that would get rid of the trench tactic and hopefully cause less casualties 
2) - Japan attacked because the military strained Japan's economy so they invaded Manchuria because it was a land that had many resources and provided living spaces
- Germany attacked because it wanted to restore its former glory and be seen as a formidable force once again.]]> 2021-03-19 15:28:28 UTC https://padlet.com/eanderson16/qx180vr4vl9axpce/wish/1330247100 3-2-1 23jbarajas https://padlet.com/eanderson16/qx180vr4vl9axpce/wish/1330248916 3 things that stood out:
3 - during the early 20th century, China was split into different territories that were ruled by different warlords. 
2 - Trench warfare was ruled out due to the Nazi's fast paced "Blitzkrieg" warfare
1 - The war may have technically started when Japan invaded China in 1937 and not when the Nazis invaded Poland in 1939
2 reasons why either Japan and/or Germany attacked:
2 - Germany invaded Poland to gain back the land that  they had lost in WW1
1 - Japan attacked China due to the country having an abundance of natural resources, something that Japan desperately needed]]> 2021-03-19 15:28:50 UTC https://padlet.com/eanderson16/qx180vr4vl9axpce/wish/1330248916 3-2-1 23asoriano https://padlet.com/eanderson16/qx180vr4vl9axpce/wish/1330252892 3) It is interesting how if one country got involved, then the other countries would attempt to remian nuetral or then become allies. 
3) Chinese civil war was ignited by  Chang turning his attention to communists in hopes of containing his power. 
3) Japan was a very big military state and mostly tried to isolate themselves from conflict. This led them to believe they more sophisticated and were also considered an ultranationlist state.

2) Japan wanted to get involved and attack because China had resources and land that they wanted. Then Japan falsely accuses China. Japan then gains control over Manchuko.
2) Germany launched a huge attack on Poland and airplanes bombed cities.

1) Japan felt the need to attack because the resources China had were necessary for Japan. Japan was expanding and greatly wanted to dominate even more, and therefore felt that taking away China's resources would give them a lead.

  1. Japan created a xenophobic culture after the Meiji Restoration in which it focused heavily on strong military and religious traditions.
  2. Conquered Korea because of ultra nationalism, centralized states, and European technology in the First Sino Japanese War.
  3. By February 1932 Japan had control of all of Manchuria, but Japan wanted to expand even more, which led to the stop of a Communist domestic war in order to defend themselves.

  1. One of the reasons that the second Sino Japanese War began was because of Japanese expansion, in which they wanted to take over Chinese mainland because of a highly condensed population.
  2. Also the “Mukden Incident” in which one of the Japanese’s soldiers were lost in a small misunderstanding led to all out fighting at the Chinese border and the conquering of Shanghai.

They likewise believed that their religion/society was the most cultivated and civilized. 
- Out of disappointment brought about by the battle against Chiang Kai-Shek, the Japanese soldiers assaulted and butchered numerous civilians with this being going down as one of the notable atrocities of war. 
- It is questionable that the Japanese attacks really began the conflict rather than the German Nazis
2 - Japan attacked China in a desperate need for natural resources and because they had an interest in land.
-Germany eventually attacked Poland in order to gain control of the East territory and Poland was relatively weak because it had a new government with weak militarism.]]> 2021-03-19 15:32:47 UTC https://padlet.com/eanderson16/qx180vr4vl9axpce/wish/1330268170 3-2-1 Lauren Lee https://padlet.com/eanderson16/qx180vr4vl9axpce/wish/1330272737 3. -An aggression pact was formed between Germany and The Soviet Union however 9 days after it was signed, Germany launched an attack on Poland

  2.  Hitler, who was desperate to regain the lost territory from WW1, attacked Poland, a newly established and weak country in search for land.
