>Modernize from a buttfuck nowhere savage feudal power looked down upon for their barbarity even by the Chinese to an Industrial and military powerhouse with a completely modern military and technological capacity in the matter of less than a decade.
>Immediately begin to expand under false-pretenses, join in with Europe when it comes to Qing rape
>Fund coups in Korea before jailing their sovereign and taking over the country
>Attack Russia before you even declare war
>Wreck a Western country so hard that Roosevelt needed to step in to save whites from embarrassment.
>Kill. burn, loot, and rape whole cities
>Completely mobilize every member of the population right down to the family and child-count for war.
>Ruthlessly modernizes with reckless abandon in pursuit of being just as (if not more) powerful than Europe
>Proceed to take over and destroy a divided China, ruthlessly occupying the Middle Kingdom while conducting biological weapons experiments on the population
>Brazenly take over European colonies, performing the same level of brutality on the citizens as with the Chinese
>Decides to attack the most powerful country in the world before declaring war simply because of their oil trading policies
>Proceed to get dominated and destroyed, having the majority of all of your cities burned to the ground with firebombs and two of your cities being the sight of Nuclear war

Is it just me, or does Japan seem to be the most uniquely cruel, calculating, brutal, and heartless Imperial power?
