第二次世界大战的战火首先在亚洲燃起,日本帝国主义是点燃战火的元凶。 日本曾是由武士阶级掌权的封建国家,长期实行闭关锁国政策。19世纪中叶以后,美、英等西方国家先后用武力打开日本的门户,封建统治开始动摇。1868年,日本在“尊王攘夷”,“富国强兵”的口号下实行“明治维新”。其后,资本主义得到迅速发展,日本逐步变成一个军事封建的帝国主义国家,走上对外侵略扩张的道路。 The war in World War II was first started in Asia and Japanese imperialism was the culprit in igniting the war. Japan used to be a feudal country dominated by the warrior class and has long implemented the policy of “closing its door to lock up its own country.” After the middle of the 19th century, the western countries such as the United States and Britain successively used force to open their doors to Japan. The feudal rule began to waver. In 1868, Japan implemented the “Meiji Restoration” under the slogan of “Respecting the King and Resting in the Countryside,” “Strengthening the Wealth and Strong Soldiers.” Since then, capitalism has been rapidly developed. Japan has gradually become a military feudal and imperialist country and embarked on the path of aggression and expansion abroad.
