Explanation:

Japan industrialized and became a modern power after bold reforms started in the second half of the 19th century. It followed a policy of territorial, military and economic expansion in Asia. As a major economy,  it was affected by the Great Depression of the 1930s. In that environment, the idea that Japan expansion by means of military conquest would provide solutions for economic pains gained a hold. There was a large increase in population numbers which needed large food imports. Western tariffs, local legislation and other barriers to pacific Japanese trade expansion, led to make the belief in military might and forceful solutions popular and acceptable. That served militarism and its imposition.

the california missions began in the late 18th century as an effort to convert native americans to catholicism and expand european territory. there were 21 missions in all, lasting from 1769 until about 1833.   the missions were built by the spanish starting in 1769 in order to “colonize” the territory of alta california. so the missions were important because they were the means of settling california. it also wanted to keep other european countries out of alta california. building settlements along the coast would them meet these goals. missionaries wanted to convert the indians to the roman catholic faith. california indians did much of the work to build missions.
