The Russo-Japanese War ended in an outcome that no one expected.
Japan won land battles such as the Liaodong Peninsula and Mukden, and Japan defeated the Baltic Fleet in terms of navy.
On September 5, 1905, the Treaty of Portsmouth was signed through the mediation of the United States.
It was none other than America who felt bitter about this.
It was the first time since the Battle of Warstadt in Mongolia in the Middle Ages that a yellow race had won a war against a white race.
Many white people were bitter about Yellow's victory.
This was especially a disaster for the United States, which was thinking of exporting its own products to Qing Dynasty.
Later, when Japan began to fight against China's Kuomintang during the Sino-Japanese Incident, the United States supported Chiang Kai-shek's Kuomintang with money and supplies.
After the Japanese army captured Nanjing, the capital of the Republic of China, the United States sent supplies and money through French Indochina to support Chiang Kai-shek and the Kuomintang.
Japan's expansion into Indochina to block American supplies led to a complete embargo on oil imports to Japan.
At this point, Japan was in a hopeless situation.
One possibility was to occupy Dutch Indonesia and secure oil.
In order to secure Indonesia's oil, it was necessary to control the Philippines and Guam, and Japan entered into a state of war with the United States.
A plan for a limited war with the United States was being planned at Imperial Headquarters, but the plan was suddenly changed to attack Pearl Harbor.
The U.S. government knew that the Japanese Navy had left Tanakappu Bay on Etorofu Island, and that its destination was Hawaii, based on spies within Japan and the interception of Japanese telegrams and codes.
However, Roosevelt did not inform the Hawaiian Army and Navy in order to portray America as the victim.
On August 8, 1945, the Soviet Union broke the Japan-Soviet Neutrality Treaty and declared war.
Japan was surprised because they had been thinking of asking the Soviet Union to act as an intermediary for a ceasefire and end the war, and realizing that mediation was impossible, they decided to accept the Potsdam Declaration.
On September 2, 1945, on the deck of the battleship USS Missouri, with many American military aircraft flying overhead, both sides and the Japanese government signed the Instrument of Japan's Surrender, ending the war and ensuring that American forces remained in control for the next seven years. and will occupy Japan.
Through this war, the American military realized to its very bones how terrifying the Japanese and Japanese army were.
As a result, the American military command, mandated by the American government, implemented various policies to weaken Japan.
First, according to Article 9 of the Constitution, the Japanese government does not maintain an army, navy, or any other military force. The country's right to engage in war is not recognized. This clause will be included and had been approved by the Imperial congress of Japan.
Additionally, Article 4 of the Fiscal Law includes a clause that prohibits the Japanese government from issuing national bonds at will.
Additionally, the United States considered using Korea and Koreans to rule Japan.
The American military appointed Syngman Rhee, a hard-line anti-Japanese figure, as the ruler of South Korea, and set the stage for containment against Japan.
Additionally, the United States used Sun Myung Moon and the Unification Church to promote the transformation of Japan and South Korea into Christian nations.
This policy was so strong that Prime Minister Nobusuke Kishi and Crown Prince Akihito paid a courtesy visit to Little Angel of the Unification Church.
From this time, a relationship between the Unification Church and Japan arose, and it became difficult for Japan to oppose the Unification Church, which was backed by the United States.
Additionally, the United States created a system to control Japanese media using Korean media.
In the first place, major American banks and other companies bought half of the shares of most of South Korea's large companies and chaebol companies and put them under control.
As shown in the table, the structure of Korean conglomerates controlled by the United States is powerful.
Then, the Korean media, which was controlled by the United States, was allocated to Japanese broadcasting stations and newspaper companies, creating a system that controlled Japanese television, radio, and newspapers.
Even now, as shown in the table, Korean media with an American background are located within broadcasting stations and are controlling them.
This is the system of American rule over Japan using Korea.
Under this system, the mass media is completely under the control of the American-Korean media.
To begin with, there was almost no anti-Japanese sentiment within South Korea at the end of the war.
This was because Japan had adopted very considerate policies towards Koreans.
However, the United States appointed Syngman Rhee, the anti-Japanese standard-bearer, and carried out thorough anti-Japanese campaigns and education.
In order to support their anti-Japanese activities, money from the United States went to Syngman Rhee, Park Chung Hee, and the South Korean government.
And currently, Japan is burdened with the obligation to purchase a large amount of US government bonds every year.
And selling American government bonds is not allowed. Japan is said to be like America's ATM cash dispenser.
In order to keep the purchases of American government bonds hidden from the Japanese people, they are recorded in a special account rather than in the general account, and are handled by the Foreign Exchange Special Committee.
