How much of China did Japan control during World War 2?

Possibly one quarter, if that. Japan had a lot of conquering to do. China's big, and when an army conquers a land, they must leave some troops their to "police" it. So Japan had to leave an "occupation" army in china (approximately one million men), and go else where to conquer more territory, with the men that weren't staying in occupied Manchuria.
