For decades leading up to World War II, Imperial Japan saw industrialization as a way to further its greatness as a nation. Put the other way around, industrialization promised that Japan could prevent being dominated by the highly industrialized Western nations which were such a dominant force in Asia at the time.

In the 20th century and leading up to World War II, Japan quite rightly viewed industrialization as a means of preventing any invasion by a foreign country -- and as a means for doing much more. Industrialization would enable Japan to develop the modern military might with which to defend its own territory while also (and preferably, to the mind of Japanese military leaders) taking the fight to the lands and seas of any potential enemies.

Why did industrialization?

In 1853, when the US Navy's Commodore Perry sailed his "warships" into Japanese waters, he opened Japan's culture to the outside world. They had lived in their own "sealed kingdom" (self imposed isolation) before then. When Japan saw the mini-locomotive trains, and latest cannons & hand held firearms (small arms), combined with how easy it was for a foreigner like the US Navy to enter their harbor un-opposed; they knew, if they were to survive, they had to be able to compete on "an equal basis!" This called for "Industrialization!"
