\n

The years between 1912 and 1939<\/strong> were momentous for Japan and China. In 1912, the Meiji emperor passed from the scene, and Japan faced an uncertain future with a much weaker emperor at the helm. In China, 1912 saw the end of two-thousand years of imperial rule.\u00a0 China was at a crossroads.\u00a0 During the next three decades both countries took on new challenges as well as shifts in ideologies and eventually war with each other. This course traced the evolution of modern Japan and China<\/strong> during these crucial years.<\/p>\n

Teachers joined Dr. Shelton Woods<\/strong>\u00a0from Boise State University for an\u00a0online seminar<\/strong> to explore this uniquely interesting and consequential period of history.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
