WORLD HISTORY

Detailed explanation-1: -The Empire of Japan ruled the Korean Peninsula from 1910 to 1945. Joseon Korea had come into the Japanese sphere of influence with the Japan–Korea Treaty of 1876; a complex coalition of the Meiji government, military, and business officials began a process of integrating Korea’s politics and economy with Japan.

Detailed explanation-2: -Japanese rule (1910–1945) When the Russo-Japanese War ended in 1905 Korea became a nominal protectorate of Japan, and was annexed by Japan in 1910. The Korean Emperor Gojong was removed.

Detailed explanation-3: -Japanese colonial rule (1910-1945) was a contradictory experience for Koreans. On the one hand, Japanese colonialism was often quite harsh. For the first ten years Japan ruled directly through the military, and any Korean dissent was ruthlessly crushed.

Detailed explanation-4: -Japanese rule (1910–1945) Many Koreans formed the Righteous army to fight against Japanese rule. Korea was controlled by Japan under a Governor-General of Chōsen from 1910 until Japan’s unconditional surrender to the Allied Forces on 15 August 1945.

Detailed explanation-5: -Unified Silla lasted for 267 years until falling to Goryeo, under the leadership King Gyeongsun, in 935. Joseon, born out of the collapsed Goryeo in 1392, also ruled the entire peninsula, that rule lasting until Japan annexed Korea in 1910.
