      breusch barbare02 uhhh for Japan they were on the losing side because they were divided but then won. They won against Tibet. Britain, France, Germany, USA and Russia didn’t have a war with China, rather they took tiny bits of land from it and increased influence in it when it was weak. The British had a naval war were China lost Hong Kong but not much more. Only against Vietnam and Mongolia did they truly lose.

    The British suffered a terrible 1 human casualty, much "more" than the casualty count of the Hundred Years, Both World Wars, The Great Turkish War, The First Sino-Japanese War, The KOrean War, the Mongol COnquest, and the Russian Civil War on either side.
