The Manchurian Crisis of September 8, 1931 (also known as the "Mukden Incident", also known as the "Manchurian Incident") resulted in the Japanese invasion of China.
The Manchuria Incident, also known as the Mukden Incident, occurred on September 18, 1931, when Japanese military personnel staged an explosion on a railway in Manchuria, China, as a pretext to invade the region. This event led to Japan's rapid military occupation of Manchuria and the establishment of the puppet state of Manchukuo. The incident marked a significant escalation in Japanese militarism and imperial expansion in East Asia, contributing to tensions that eventually led to the Second Sino-Japanese War. The League of Nations condemned Japan's actions, but the country withdrew from the League in 1933.
In 1931, Japan invaded and captured Manchuria following the Mukden incident, which was orchestrated by rogue Japanese military factions to set up a pretext for invasion of the province. They established a puppet government called Manchukuo and occupied the province until the end of War II.
