Japanese soldiers in World War II
As we all know, modern China has a humiliating history, from the Opium War to the later War of Resistance Against Japan, China has been invaded and humiliated by the great powers. According to statistics, there were a total of 25 countries that invaded China during this period, but with the passage of time, in addition to Japan, the other 24 countries seem to have forgiven, and many netizens are very confused about this.
In modern times, as many as 25 countries invaded China
In fact, since the first Opium War, Britain has always been the main force invading China, and later, under the leadership of Britain, other powers began to divide China, not only seizing a lot of territory, but also demanding a large amount of economic reparations and so on. Now, we have not forgotten these powers, but we hate them far less than Japan, and in fact, the reasons for this are very simple, mainly these three points.
China hates Japan the most
First of all, the most important point is the attitude of post-war Japan, you know, until now, there are still many right-wing forces in Japan that do not admit to invading China and many East Asian countries, and even deny the Nanjing Massacre, comfort women and other well-documented facts. Many japanese textbooks also brush over the history of World War II, but instead hype japan was attacked by two American atomic bombs in World War II. On the other hand, Britain, France, and other countries still have a very sincere attitude toward the history of invading China, apologizing to China, and most of them have returned the territory they once occupied from China.

Secondly, compared with other countries, Japan's way of invading China was more vicious and cruel, and although the British and French powers also used force when they invaded China, they did not maliciously attack civilians. Whether it was the Sino-Japanese War or the later World War II, Japan created a terrible massacre, and at the same time wantonly insulted Chinese women, even children and the elderly could not escape the doom, killing people and setting fires, burning and looting, and the frenzied Unit 731, using china's living people as human experiments, and also publicized these evil acts everywhere, saying that this was their great honor.
In World War II, Japan caused many massacres that shocked China and other countries
In addition, in history, Japan has invaded China more than once, as early as the Tang Dynasty, Japan tried to invade through Korea, but Baijiangkou was defeated in the First World War and retreated, honestly for more than a thousand years. Later, during the Ming Dynasty, the second invasion, this time directly from the sea to attack China's coastal areas, but in the end it was also for Qi Jiguang and other patriotic generals to pack up. However, these two encounters did not awaken Japan to plans to invade China again after the Meiji Restoration.
Japan has invaded China many times in history
China and Japan have been a teacher-student relationship since ancient times, and for many periods, we have aided Japan without any return, but later we have been repeatedly reported by Japan, which is really difficult to accept. Not to mention China, it is unforgivable to put it on any country!
