The Japanese were still in the beginning of the Sino-Japanese War in 1938, and they had recently taken the KMT (The Chinese Nationalist Government is the KMT) capitol of Nanking as well as Shanghai. At this point, the Japanese were making quick work of the Chinese army with their highly industrialized military and basically un-opposed air superiority. Japan also had a puppet regime in Manchukuo (formerly and currently known as Manchuria, the Northern section of China) and had established the deposed Qing Dynasty emperor, Puyi, as their token ruler.

During this time, Japan ratified a puppet regime in the Northern section of China known as Manchuria. The Japanese elected Puyi, the dethroned Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, as their leader.

How did the nanking massacre end?

I know that the nanking massacre last from 1937-1938, what i want to know is why they suddenly STOPPED killing people? Is it because every ran away, or maybe something happened that caused the soldiers to withdraw from nanking. That because Japanese Government want to rule china, in fact until the gived up of Japan, there is so great number of Japanese soldiers capture the former capital of china. The reason of massacre stop mean is: The order about collective massacre was stopped. (but kill of Japanese soldiers personal action not stop until 1945) As a top secret, Japanese Gov don't want the world know it. Beacuse Japanese Gov still boost that Japanese start the war is for Liberat Asia


What are Chiang kai-shek's major accomplishments in world war 2?

At least, he didn't surrender to the Japanese military attack. In the meantime, his KMT troops did fought very hard against Japanese at the early stage of the war, which was 1937 and 1938. The resistance delayed the invasion to other parts of China. Japan's original plan was to take over the whole country in three months. However, he couldn't deny his responsiblity to the lost of three provinces in northeastern China, which was colonialised by Japanese since September 1931. The year of 1931 was actually the starting year of the WW2 for Chinese people.
