What is the historical significanc eof the Pacific War?

Question

Anyone?

Answer 1

What was historically significant about the Pacific War was Japan, a nation that quickly modernised in the early 20th Century, had the audacity but not the means to colonise Asia (under the name of the so-called Greater Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere) and attempted to "free" Asia of the Western colonial powers. The Japanese began their war of Aggression in China in 1937, and steadily increased its territory until it met opposition in 1941 when the English and the Americans stopped all trading with this member of the Axis (Germany, Italy, and Japan). The European countries were able to colonise parts of Asia for up to 300 years, at best the Japanese could only control its conquered territories for 3 years (1942 -1945). The Japanese military spirit, Bushido, was very admirable but even the members of Japan's military knew that it could not fight the Americans, the Australians, the Chinese, the Dutch, the English, the Indians and the Asians who refused to be enslaved at the same time.
