The First Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 | Full Documentary

Описание: In this documentary, we dive into the First Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, focusing on Korea's political turmoil and the escalating tensions between China and Japan.

Discover how Korea's isolationist policies, influenced by internal factions and foreign pressures, set the stage for conflict. Explore key events such as the Imo Uprising, the Gapsin Coup, and the Donghak Rebellion, highlighting the power struggles within Korea and the foreign interventions by China and Japan. As both nations vie for influence over Korea, their military engagements escalate, leading to the Battle of Pungdo and the official outbreak of war.

This documentary also delves into the Battle of Pyongyang during the First Sino-Japanese War. Chinese forces consolidated in Pyongyang, but Japanese troops, reinforced and numbering over 20,000, launched a multi-directional assault on September 15, 1894. Despite fierce Chinese resistance, superior Japanese tactics and artillery led to a decisive victory. Japanese forces continued to press their advantage, leading to further victories and territorial gains in Korea and China, including the critical capture of Port Arthur. The Chinese military, plagued by corruption and outdated tactics, struggled against Japan’s modernized forces. The conflict culminated in the Treaty of Shimonoseki, which imposed harsh terms on China, marking Japan’s emergence as a dominant power in Asia.
