What about the south seas mandate?
And if Japan ever annexed north Sakhalin, what would they do with all the russians?

Maybe a conquest of Manchuria, but I think the invasion of China got Japan's ball rolling into World War 2 which would mean you'd need to avoid the whole fiasco to keep Japan out of the war and holding onto its colonies.Does the second sino-Japanese war happen?

And how to avoid this war to be subsumed into WW2?Isn't the premises "no ww2" rather than "Japan doesn't involved in ww2"? If so a war with China could still happen.
Well if there is no WW2 then it can't become part of WW2.And how to avoid this war to be subsumed into WW2?
My title comes with the idea of no WW2 at all but I had assumed just Japan doesn't get involved could also workWell if there is no WW2 then it can't become part of WW2.
Japanese Colonialism was pretty brutal. I would see civil war in the 1950s.
For a long while already it seems I have already on thought disconnected from it and preoccupying real life prevents me from online participation.... so I do not foresee me joining this discussion.Such an agreement was made in the past, where Japan surrendered Sakhalin (karafuto) in exchange for the whole of the Kuril islands (chishima), but southern Sakhalin was taken after the Russo Japanese war. Thus, it makes zero sense for Japan to trade off the Kuril islands.
And these conditions were enormously popular with Koreans - I don't think.Something like 95% of all factories in Korea were Japanese owned and something like 50% of all arable farmland in Korea was Japanese owned by the start of the second world war..
