End of the Nanjing Massacre (jan 20, 1938 – feb 1, 1938)
Description:
"In late January 1938, the Japanese army forced all refugees in the Safety Zone to return home, immediately claiming to have "restored order". After the establishment of the weixin zhengfu (the collaborating government) in 1938, order was gradually restored in Nanking and atrocities by Japanese troops lessened considerably."--Timetoast, Nanjing Massacre
