		From economic to strategic to social imperialism, from the notion of "informal empire" to the most recent debate surrounding "cultural imperialism," historians continue to probe the causes of European expansion and domination in the l9th and 20th centuries as central to the history of national development and international conflict that defines the modern age.
		While rarely a party to this debate, Japanese historians have long sustained a discussion of their own on Japanese imperialism that has stressed the internally generated semi feudal and material origins of expansion.
		The persistence of this debate from 1914 to 1919 and the fundamental questions about the nature of the Japanese polity that it raised ensured that the "European War" would become for Japan, no less than it was for the other belligerents, a defining event in the twentieth century.

	Michigan State University Press \| Manchurian Legacy \| Kazuko Kuramoto
		Kazuko Kuramoto was born and raised in Dairen, Manchuria, in 1927, at the peak of Japanese expansionism in Asia.
		When Kuramoto's grandfather arrived in Dairen as a member of the Japanese police force shortly after the end of the Russo-Japanese War in 1905, the family's belief in Japanese supremacy and its "divine" mission to "save" Asia from Western imperialists was firmly in place.

	TOQ-Stephen J. Sniegoski-Pearl Harbor-Vol 1 No 2
		In July 1941, when Japanese forces moved into southern French Indo-China (having already occupied the northern part in 1940), Roosevelt announced his most drastic measure: the freezing of all Japanese assets in the U.S.. This deprived the Japanese of the means to purchase American goods, the most critical of which was oil.
		The Japanese viewed the American arms to China, the military build-up, and the apparent military alliance between the ABD powers as constituting the Anglo-American "encirclement" of Japan. As Bruce Russett writes: "The freezing of assets on July 26, 1941, was seen as the final link in their bondage."
		In addition, both of the Japanese assistant naval attachés posted at the Washington embassy in 1941 have verified that the message was transmitted on December 4th, exactly as Safford said.

	Articles - Yamato period (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		The Yamato period (Japanese: 大和時代, Yamato-jidai), better known as the Kofun period, is the period of Japanese history when the Japanese Imperial court ruled from modern day Nara Prefecture, then known as Yamato province.
		The court's supremacy was challenged throughout the period from Bizen and Bitchū provinces in what is now known as Okayama prefecture, and it was only into the 6th century AD that the Yamato clans could be said to have any major advantage over their neighbouring clans.
		Hence, Japanese archaeologists (and textbooks) tend to prefer the less deterministic term Kofun period, which reflects the diagnostic archaeological feature, the large, often keyhole shaped burial mounds (kofun) found across mainland Japan.
