- - - - The first to invade China, in the Opium Wars
- - - - With all the instability caused by Qing's lack of governance, the many revolts led to the 1911 Revolution, being Sun the leader of the revolutionaries
        
        He was elected by the revolutionaries as the President of the Republic of China
  - - - The CCP(Chinese communist party) had those same objectives. They formed a alliance to achieve this goals despite their differences
- - - - At 1931, a bomb exploded at a Japanese railroad exploded at Southern Manchuria (they owned bits of it at the time). This, although probably set up by the japanese, it was the perfect reason to invade Manchuria
        
        This stimulated Japan's ambitions and left China even more susceptible for another invasion (+ the Civil War)
        
        Japan invaded again at 1937. This time, the CCP and the Kuomintang formed another alliance, to fight of the Japanese

      - The Long March

- - - - The Eight Nations Alliance was formed, to retaliate against the Boxers. They won, but the nationalist feeling got stronger
        
        The Chinese Government got even more criticized by the population for being weak, since instead of rallying the population, they funded a secret society to try to do something (The only thing that they did basically) against the imperialists.
        
        The Chinese Government was forced to pay reparations to the Coalition, increasing Chinese economic crisis
