This paper will explore the 1910 to 1945 period of Korean history when Korea was controlled by Japan. Japan annexed Korea in 1910 and forced Korea to take a new direction. The discussion will begin with a brief examination of a much earlier period time when, ironically, The Koreans were the ones who exerted a powerful influence on the Japanese. This will help one to understand the more recent history (in this history) of the country because it will reveal that Japan and Korea have actually had long-standing relationships. In addition, there will be some mention of the period of time just before the annexation of Korea by Japan. 9 pgs. 17 f/c. 8b.
