Japan controlled its occupied territories during World War II through a combination of military governance, economic exploitation, and cultural assimilation. The Japanese military established direct control over regions, often suppressing local resistance through force. They also implemented policies that exploited local resources and labor for Japan's war efforts. Additionally, Japan promoted its language and culture in these territories to foster loyalty and suppress local identities.

During World War II, Japan controlled several areas in mainland Asia, including parts of China, such as Manchuria, and significant territories in Southeast Asia, including Korea, Taiwan, and portions of Indochina (Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia).

During World War I, Japan's main rivals were Germany and Austria-Hungary. Japan joined the Allied Powers and sought to expand its influence in Asia and the Pacific by seizing German territories in the region. The Japanese Imperial Navy played a significant role in defeating German forces in the Pacific and securing control over German-held territories in China and the islands of the Pacific. Ultimately, Japan emerged from the war with an expanded empire and increased international recognition.

In 1942, during World War II, Japan's farthest point of control extended approximately 3,500 kilometers (about 2,200 miles) from its home islands, reaching into the Pacific. This included territories such as parts of Southeast Asia, the Philippines, and various islands in the Pacific, including those in the Solomon Islands and as far as the Aleutian Islands in Alaska. This expansion marked the peak of Japan's territorial claims during the war.
