Did people really fear that the Chinese/Japanese would take over the world?
>Wilhelm had wrote to Nicholas the question of Russian interests in Manchuria and Korea were besides the point, saying instead it was a matter of Russia "undertaking the protection and defense of the White Race, and with it, Christian civilization, against the Yellow Race. And whatever the Japs are determined to ensure the domination of the Yellow Race in East Asia, to put themselves at its head and organise and lead it into battle against the White Race. That is the kernel of the situation, and therefore there can be very little doubt about where the sympathies of all half-way intelligent Europeans should lie. England betrayed Europe's interests to America in a cowardly and shameful way over the Panama Canal question, so as to be left in 'peace' by the Yankees. Will the 'Tsar' likewise betray the interests of the White Race to the Yellow as to be 'left in peace' and not embarrass the Hague tribunal too much?"
Kaiser Willy actually, unironically thought the Japanese would ally with the Chinese to dominate the world. This is what racists of the time actually believed. And no I don't mean "he said mean things about Asians" racists but real bona fide "race is a real, 100% scientific, and accurate historical determinant and policy platform" racist. Racism, while useful as a way to rally support and curry favor because "they took our jobs", is woefully ignorant not just of other cultures but also of geopolitics, economics, and historical context.
See Roosevelt's executive orders on Japanese internment. The educated and thriving Japanese middle class entrepeneurs and workers of the American southwest had all their property forcibly confiscated and, to fill in the resulting labor vacuum, business during and after the war were incentivized to import cheaper black, Mexican, and central American workers (see Bracero program and the Great Migration).

The desire by Japanese to incorporate Koreans into Japan proper was correct.
They also didn't necessarily think the japs would ally with the chinks. Just set themselves up as a foreign dynasty and project all that manpower and resources westwards too.
The yellow peril is real and the Chinese espionage in the US among third and fourth generation chinks even proves it.

Fucking mimics always ruining my day
Is /his/ seriously the Asian board on 4chan?
I mean, all the shit-flinging at anything Germanic, but point a finger at Asiatics and you guys get histrionic and hypersensitive. My favorite Chinese historical figure is Shinzo Abe, the infamous Yangban that choked and died on fried pork belly, BTW.
