Imperial period?
I started a Battle of Pearl Harbor article, and referred to the Empire of Japan, but am open to other terms. The Showa period isn't in your timeline, but I'm not sure how far the Imperial period should go back. The rise of the hyperaggressive military in the 1920s? Sino-Japanese and Russo-Japanese Wars? Meiji?
Suggestions welcome. I also put a single link to Empire of Japan in the main Japan article. Howard C. Berkowitz 12:30, 26 May 2008 (CDT)
