The Satsuma Han had ruled Okinawa since the third decade of the 17th Century. When Japan converted the Han into provoinces in the early 1870s, the Japanese government assumed direct control of the Okinawa from the Han. So, depending how you want to portray it, Japan either took Okinawa in the early 1870s or that it assumed control of the Satsuma dependency which already was already Japanese territory since the Satsuma Han already ruled it. By the way, the 1886 incident was worse than Imperial China refusing to apologize; the Chinese admiral actually demanded extra territorial rights (similar to what the Europeans had in China; while Japan had ended anything like that with the Europeans). The Japanese politely refused it. This directly lead to the development of the ships that beat the Chinese fleet.
Your videos are awesome. You are soon to become another great RUclips Channel on history. Keep up the good work providing detailed, respectful and unbiased accounts.
I liked the documentary and I can tell this is the work of hours of dedicated work. I would like to know your personal outlook on Emperor Guangxu's abilities during this war.
Thank you! I think Guangxu was very indecisive about what to do and mostly delegated the work to high ranking officials and generals (as more or less all non-warrior emperors did). Had he taken a bigger control, the war might have gone better for the Qing, although their actual military strategy was very obsolete. This last aspect and the massive corruption were in my view the main reason the Qing was so crushingly defeated
Wow excellent work History of China! You made such a well produced and detailed video! Just make sure the new second part is out quickly and keep up the good work!
in fact Ryukyu kingdom was a tributary state of both Japan & China since Satsuma invasion, Meiji just ended that situation in Japan's favor specially that people of Ryukyu had more similarities with people of Kyushu than people of Shanghai.
That's true. It was vassalised by the Japanese Satsuma domain, but later became part of the Qing tributary system, thus officially being treated as an independant state

@@rosemichaelis9519 India came with 300 troops against 25 Chinese, and still got kicked in ass. China lost 4 men, ehile India 20. 37 Indians were also captured alive🤣
I believe the first war between China and Japan was in early 660's, during China's Tang Dynasty. The key battle was "Battle of Baekgang". The battle took place in the Baengma River or Baek River , which is the lower reach of the Geum River in Jeollabuk-do province, Korea.
Kind of glossed over a couple things. Meiji wasn't just reinstated. There was a civil war over the issue. Also, Japanese imperialism was NOT a western import. Japan had ambitions on all of Asia as early as the 16th century, and only failed in their invasion of Korea, which was meant to be a stepping stone into China, due to the efforts of one of the greatest military geniuses of all time, admiral Yi Sun-sin.
Japanese imperialism was a deep rooted cultural phenomenon, but it was clearly formulated and finalized through the lens of western-style imperialism, which is what I think our narrator and others are implying with such statements. The western-imported aspects was a dominant factor in what sparked the modern-era renaissance of aggression in the Japanese Empire! Although this isn't to say that western influence "caused" this, it seems to me inevitable that such a uniquely powerful and isolated society would eventually turn outwards to conquer by any means, it just so happened in our history that western contact was a significant catalyst.
Awesome video One thing to improve: Korean Hanja and Japanese Kanji at that era were different from today's simplified Chinese characters. I recommend that the video maker should use the standard Hanja/Kanji for Korean and Japanese names.
I've just realized: This war isn't over to this day. All there that exists is a stalemate with the continued division of the Korean peninsula, the North under the influence of China and the South under the influence of Japan.
Thank you ! Most of the Beiyang fleet ships were built in European shipyards, whith only few built in Chinese shipyards (such as the Fuzhou arsenal). The ironclads Dingyuan and Zhenyuan were built by the German Empire in 1882, and delivered to China in 1885

You actually gave China a chance to tell its side. Western history books always described the First Sino-Japanese war with China military being pathetic and backward at the time compared to the overwhelmingly superior Japanese army and navy. But watching your video, it seems not exactly the case.
In all fairness, China had made huge efforts to technologically modernise both its armies and navies. The cause of the Qing's defeat in the war was not so technological than tactical. I'll expose the main reason it lost the conflict at the end of the second part :)
During that time, there was a new religion has rise up in Joseon and it’s called Donghak(동학, 훗날 천도교로 개명) And the followers of Donghak and the peasants who were persecuted by the hierarchy uprise against the incompetent Joseon Dynasty to achieve equality and justice. This riot soon called the Donghak Peasant Uprising. The Joseon Government was incompetent that they didn’t cease the uprising by their power. Because corruption causes a lack of training and support. So, the incompetent King Gojing and corrupted Queen Myeongseong who call the Qing Empire to cease the uprising even the object of the ministers. They did this even they know it all because they just want to keep their power. And Japan involves it because China violated the Treaty of Tianjin and this cause the First Sino-Japanese War. The incompetent & corrupted king and queen of Joseon make the Korean Peninsula into the battlefield of China and Japan.
