For starters, I don't think many people are going to agree that continuing Japanese rule over Okinawa or Hokkaido constitutes imperialism. A more comprehensive description of Japanese history, expansionism, as well as current situation is certainly needed.
Also, much of this material is already covered under other articles. Perhaps this article can be merged into those articles, or some information can be brought in from those articles? -- ran ( talk) 22:23, May 7, 2005 (UTC)
If this page is deleted, than the duplicate articles on "US imperialism" should be as well: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_United_States_imperialism or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._foreign_interventions_since_1945 Any suggestion that Japan is imperialist is immediatey brought up for deletion, while different standards of proof are held for other nations. why is that?

North Korea was not an independent state at the outbreak of WWII. Nor was South Korea.
Why are Taiwan and Korea listed twice? It's not like they have been invaded / occupied / annexed twice, is it? Wikipeditor 11:16, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
BTW: what distinction DO the authors of this list have in mind between 'annexed' and 'occupied'? Don't you generally have to annex before you can occupy? 64.134.238.122 ( talk) 23:28, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
Japan never occupied Midway, so this should be taken off the list Masterblooregard ( talk) 22:39, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
Is there any source that a "Japanese Antarctic territory" ever existed? Otherwise I would remove it from the article. -- 85.181.61.64 ( talk) 19:33, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
I've had a pretty difficult time finding how much actual *land* area was controlled, in total, by Imperial Japan at the height of WWII. The article Empire of Japan lists 766,027 sq mi, however that's only in 1938. Can someone please find this info and add it to this article? Coinmanj ( talk) 03:48, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
Proposing merger of duplicate article List_of_territories_acquired_by_the_Empire_of_Japan into Territorial_conquests_of_the_Empire_of_Japan. Merger would not cause any article-size or weighting problems. Linhart.stephen ( talk) 07:21, 9 May 2022 (UTC)
They were definitely occupied... Stardude82 ( talk) 19:22, 25 July 2023 (UTC)
