1. What were the results of the First World War in the Far East and how did Japan profit by it?

When the Great War broke out in Europe, the Far East was naturally involved as the European powers had interests there. To China, the thought of being entangled in a far away foreign war was frightening as her war record of the previous hundred years had not been good. But Japan's position was different. She was encouraged by her] Successes in 1895 and 1905. To a country with an expanding population and imperialistic ambitions war was a welcome opportunity. While the Europear powers were busy battling one another, it was unlikely they would interfere with her policy of aggression towards China.

Early in the War, Japan had voluntarily undertaken to assist her ally since 1902. Great Britain. But Britain was wary of this eagerness, and only asked Japan to protect British, merchantmen in the Pacific. But Japan's ambition went far beyond that. In August, 1934, she demanded that Germany surrender to her unconditionally, and without compensatiofi, Kiaochow Bay for safekeeping, with a view to its eventual restoration to China. She then declared war on Germany and attacked Tsingtao, the port of Kiaochow. After a short siege, Tsingtao surrendered, and Japan gained control not only of Kiaochow, but also the Tsingtao - Tsinan Railway, and other German mining and railway rights in Shantung. She also acquired the German Pacific island colonies north of the Equator. After 1915, Japan took little active part in the war and limited herself to light convoy -duties in the Pacific.

China had declared herself neutral early the war. But the Japanese attack on Kiaochow Ba had violated her neutrality, After Klaochow fel into Japanese hands, China tried unsuccessfully to limit Japanese military activity. But Japan made even more startling demands upon China in 1915. She presented China with Twenty-One Demad Japan was seeking the economic exploitation of China, the expansion of her own territories, and control over China's affairs. China would have ~~been transformed into a virtual-Japanese →

protectorate if these Demands had been granted. China had no allies she could turn to for assistance, as Britain was engaged in the life skrid -death struggle with Germany, and the United. States was concerned with the sinking of the Laitaria by German U-boats. It was therefore inevitable that she would accept the Demands. Bur it was said that this step was a miştake in Japanese policy, as they did not reckon on thes violent reaction these Demands caused in China. The Chinese became anti-Japaness, and carried out a boycott of Japanese goods. The United. States did protest, but mildly, and Japan was banking on the fact that the U.5, would not use force.

in 1917, China too was drawn into the European conflict when the Allies promised to Suspend Boxer Indemnity payments if she would join in on their side. But she was too weak to. give the allies any actual military assistance, although her labourers did useful work digging trenches in northern France and Mesopotamia.

2. Write a brier history of Russia between 1801-1825-

At the beginning of the 19th century, Russia was still medieval rather than modern, Asiatic rather than European. The mass of people were serfs who were compelled to live and work on th estates of their lords. They were practically without rights and were at times subject to the

most brutal 111-treatment with no means of-redress. They were heavily taxed, they were compelled to undertake any kind and any amount of labor; they might be sold flogged, exiled to Siberia, conscripted for the Aray; imprisoned, chained o otherwise maltreated. Much of the land in Russia belonged to the Crown or the nobles. The nobles were the privileged classes. They were exempt from taxation they held commissions from the army. They were wealthy through the labors of the serfs. Tet agriculture was so backward that many nobles were constantly in debt.

The westernization of Russia was begun by Peter the Great, and continued by Catherine the Great. Peter the Great had extended his authority to the Baltic, and Catherine had wrested the Crizea from Turkey. She had also taken part in the partitions of Poland, by which she gained the most valuable portion of that unfortunate country, it was after the partitions of Poland that Russia*: influence in Europe began to be felt.

The period 1801-1825 covers the reign of Alexander I. Alexander followed his mad rather

Czar Paul to the throne. He was the most famous and

also the most enigna Lie of the Russian Czars. His

mind was brilliant but he lacked stability, and both

his home and foreign policies often showed

contradictions. He was of a deeply religione

sentiment and at first seemed to favour liceral ideas. At his youth he was propoundly influenced by his Swiss tutor Laharpe, a disciple of Roussean. He recognized the evils which existed in his country, e realized the necessity of improving the conditions of the serfs, and tried to check the gorruption of officials. He disbanded the hated Secret police, recalled exiles from Siberia and released political prisoners. Foreign books were) allowed to be imported. Three new universities were established and a systém of elementary schools ****** begun. He also passed a law by which landownere - were allowed to free serfs, and eventually some were freed. But this serf law only touched on the, fringe of the problem although it was at least a recognition of the degrading system of serfdom. A new ermy system, that of military colonies" was r introduced. By this, soldiers were given land from

which they gained ai

but also had the unfortunate effect of turning peasants into soldiers. A colification of the chaotic Russian lava vás proposed but never undertaken. A constitution was promised but never: granted, and Russia had to be content with mild reforms as an increase in religious liberty.

But it was in the Kingdom of Poland that the Czar showed himself: most liberal, Russia had acquired parts of the former Grand Ducky of War淋选秘 as compensation at the Vienna Settlement, and Alexander, introduced the most liberal form of

The war ended in 1918, and both China and Japan, being on the winning side against Germany were represented at the Peace Conference. China bad three aims at the Conferences the ending of the. wequal treaties, the return of Kiaochow, and the release of the obligations imposed on her by Japan in 1915, which could not have been binding as they had been agreed to under duress, China's chaims were not accepted. The powers were.· reluctant to offend Japan, and in any case they had secretly pledged their support in 1917. Besides, if Japan had to give up her privileges in China, then the powers, too, would have to relinquish

theirs. But much later, Japan, under pressure, agreed to keep her promise of returning Kiaochow to China. However, the unequal treaties with' Germany and Austria were abrogated. Germans and Austrians were no longer to enjoy extraterritorial rights in China. In future, any treaties signed by China with new nations created during the Peace (Conference gave no auch rights to foreigners,

War years were referred to as Japan's

government into Poland. The Kingdom of Poland wage to be almost self-governing, the only direct connection with Russia being the presence of Russian Videroy in farsaw. A pational assembly to be elected and to control all affairs relating directly to Poland. At the same tim Alexander granted freedom of speech and religion to all citizens. The university of harsan wra-founded and the Polish language was made the official language. Only Poles could occupy important posts. Alexander went so far as to promise he would incorporate Lithuania into Polish territory.

Although Alexander was well-intentioned yet he accomplished almost nothing in the face of the passive resistance of his officials and his own mental instability. He soon came under the

influence of Metternich in 1819. Metternich managed "to convince the Czar after the murder of the

Russian agent Kotzebue in Germany that all reform movements meant nothing less than revolution against crowned heads, Metternich also used tm revolutions in Spain in 1818 and Naples in 1820 to turn the Cear from ldberalism. There were also two mutinies in the Imperial Guarda, which finally swung him around. From then on Alexander'a liberal phase ended. He instituted a censorship of all school textbooks, gave the Russian Orthodox Church control of education and withdraw controversial subjects like economics from the university ourriculum. These measures were also imposed on Poland, and the Polish Constitution was violated in several respects. In foreign policy, his change of attitude was also apparent. He did not object when Metternich intervened in Italy and Spain in the name of the Holy Alliance and the Congress System. Even in the Great War of Independence, Matternict persuaded the Czar not to assist revolution even when Russian interferenom might have gained Alexander-privileges in the Balkans.
