Summary

TLDRThe transcript details the rise of Japanese imperialism, beginning with Japan's isolationist sakoku policy and its eventual reopening to the West in the mid-19th century. Following rapid modernization, Japan expanded its territorial ambitions, notably defeating Russia and occupying Korea and Manchuria. During World War II, Japan launched a surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, leading to the occupation of the Philippines. This period saw severe repression, exemplified by the Bataan Death March, and false promises of prosperity. Despite the harsh realities under Japanese rule, resistance movements like the Hukbalahap emerged, reflecting the struggle against oppression and the quest for true independence.
