		But in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, the Northern Navy of the Qing dynasty was defeated.

	Articles - 228 Incident
		As settlement for losing the Sino-Japanese War (1894-1895), China relinquished its claims to the entire island of Taiwan to Japan in 1895.
		Taiwanese perceptions of the Japanese colonial era are significantly more favorable than perceptions in other parts of East Asia, partly because during its 50 years (1895-1945) of colonial rule Japan expended effort in developing Taiwan's economy and raised the standard of living for most Taiwanese citizens.

	National Defense Through Peace Vs. Rise Through Military Means---A Comparative Study Of Chinese And Japanese National Security Strategies During The First Sino-Japanese War (1894-1895)
		By 1894, all that Japan needed was a pretext to wage war.
		In 1875, a Japanese warship rushed into a Korean territorial river without permission and was met with a justified defensive round of shelling from the Koreans.
		In comparison, after the Meiji Restoration, the Japanese carried out a policy of “Arming the Nation,” with the objective of overseas expansion, placing military development at the top of their agendas, further pushing for the general goal of a national “rise through military means” targeted directly at invading the Asia mainland.

		Although the policy of Russian containment is generally associated with U.S. foreign policy during the Cold War, in reality, from the first Sino-Japanese War to the end of World War II, Japanese policymakers had consistently applied containment to Russia.
		It was also the first of a two limited wars in pursuit of an overarching policy objective: Japanese policymakers believed that dominance over the Korean Peninsula by any great power would directly threaten their national security.

		Paine sees the war as a significant step in Japan's long term goal of imperial aggrandizement, and though Japan may have "lost the peace" of 1895, in the long run the war was a major step in Japan's progress towards regional hegemon.
