Sino-Chinese war (27 Aug 1894 Jahr – 17 Apr 1895 Jahr)

Beschreibung:

The Japanese, as a newly emerged modern power, decided to invade the Korean peninsula. As the Qing was in control of Korea, this led to a full out war between China and Japan. The Qing lost the war, showing how the self-strengthening movement was not as successful. The Qing was greatly humiliated and was forced to pay an amount equivalent to 15% of Japan's total GDP.
