abstract
  • Nan'yō (Japanese: 南海, South Seas) consisted of several groups of islands (modern-day Palau, Northern Mariana Islands, Caroline Islands and Marshall Islands) in the Pacific Ocean that came under sovereignty of the Empire of Japan after the defeat of the German Empire in Word War I. Japanese ownership was ratified by the Treaty of Versailles. Japan mounted an aggressive economic development program, promoted immigration and cultural integration of the islands. Japanese, Okinawan and Korean immigrants eventually came to outnumber islanders by as much as two to one. The Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) began construction of airfields, fortifications, ports, and other military projects in the islands. After the Great Pacific War it was briefly administered by the Joint Allies Administration for the Pacific (JAAP 1945-1947). The peace terms of the Allies with Japan determined that it would become an independent state, Micronesia, associated with Japan (1946).
