Question

Which of the following counties had a sphere of influence in China?
Japan
Canada
Belgium
Finland

Answer 1

Japan had a sphere of influence in China. During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Japan established territories and economic interests in China, particularly after the First Sino-Japanese War (1894-1895) and the subsequent Treaty of Shimonoseki. Canada, Belgium, and Finland did not have similar spheres of influence in China.
