It was already the spring of 1886. A carriage left Beijing and headed towards the suburbs. Along the way, Li Ningyu told Li Tong various jokes while looking outside the carriage, and then he remembered a sentence,
That is, flowers bloom in spring, blooming all over the mountains, and the little girl wears a floral dress, it is so beautiful...
The Ryukyu Islands in the South China Sea are a series of islands in the Pacific Ocean. They are located between Taiwan and Japan. However, the Diaoyu Islands are not within the scope of the Ryukyu Islands. Until 2013 AD, the central and southern parts of the Ryukyu Islands have been under Japanese trusteeship, but their sovereignty does not belong to the Ryukyu Islands.
Japan, according to Article 8 of the Potsdam Declaration: Japan's sovereignty must be limited to Honshu, Hokkaido, Kyushu, Shikoku and other small islands determined by us.
The Ryukyu Islands had the Ryukyu Kingdom before 1871. The territory of the Ryukyu Kingdom initially started from Amami Oshima in the north, Kikaie Island in the east, Hateruma Island in the south, and Yonaguni Island in the west. In 2013 AD, there were a large number of people all over the world.
Movement to support the restoration of Ryukyu.
The Ryukyu Islands have a total land area of 3,090 square kilometers, including 55 large and small islands, and are divided into 3 larger island groups, the Amami Island Chain in the north, the Okinawa Islands in the middle, and the Sakishima Islands in the south. Ryukyu is known for its special geography
Location, as a transit point for trade in Northeast Asia and Southeast Asia, Okinawa and Amami Oshima. These larger islands were originally volcanic islands with a large number of mountains, while the smaller islands were mostly coral islands with relatively flat terrain.
It has a subtropical climate with abundant rainfall and typhoons every year.
During the Ming and Qing dynasties, the Ryukyu Kingdom continued to send foreign students to the Imperial College in Nanjing and Beijing, as well as the Ryukyu Museum in Fuzhou to learn Chinese language. Therefore, the Ryukyu language was influenced by Chinese Min dialect, especially Fuzhou dialect, and the official text of the Ryukyu Kingdom was Chinese characters.
Ryukyuan is Chinese.
It is said that during the Tianqi period of the Ming Dynasty, Japan invaded and occupied the Ryukyu Islands. The Ming Dynasty emperor sent Yuan, the Minister of War, to go on an expedition. Culturally, the Ryukyu people were influenced by both the Japanese and the Chinese. The Ryukyu Islands was an independent kingdom from the 14th to the 19th century.
It paid tribute to the Ming and Qing dynasties of China and was forcibly occupied by Japan in 1879.
The Ryukyu Islands are a series of islands in the Western Pacific, located between Taiwan Island and Japan's Kyushu Island. Sugar cane and pineapple are two major specialties. There are also many pigs and cattle. The offshore fishery is developed. During the Ming Dynasty of China, the ruler of the Ryukyu Islands was named the King of Ryukyu.
.
Due to its convenient waterways, it was a major trade hub for neighboring countries. However, it was stolen by Japanese invaders in 1609. In 1693, the Satsuma Domain was forced to cede the Amami Islands in the north to the Japanese invaders. From then on, Japan began a plan to gradually annex the Ryukyu Kingdom.
.
It was destroyed by Japan on March 30, 1879. In 1879, the Japanese invaders announced that the Ryukyu Kingdom would be incorporated into Japan's territory. In the same year, Okinawa County was established. Until Japan was defeated in 1945, Ryukyu sovereignty returned to China. However, at that time, China was in the period of civil war.
Having no time to take care of Ryukyu, it was temporarily managed by the United States.
In 1970, the United States and Japan signed the San Francisco Peace Treaty between the United States and Japan behind China's back, transferring the management rights of Ryukyu and Diaoyutai to Japan. This act was illegal because the sovereignty of Ryukyu Island belonged only to the Chinese clan.
In the 12th century, the three kingdoms of Nanshan, Zhongshan and Beishan appeared in the Ryukyu Islands, respectively in the south, central and north of the Ryukyu Islands. In 1372, after the Ming Dynasty Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang issued an edict to King Zhongshan of Ryukyu, Beishan, Zhongshan and Nanshan were
The three kings then began to pay tribute to the Ming government, and Ryukyu became one of the vassal states of China.
In 1429, King Shang Bashi of Zhongshan conquered Nanshan and formed the unified Ryukyu Kingdom (the first Sho Dynasty). Each generation of kings needed to be canonized and appointed by the Ming Dynasty government, and the Ming Dynasty did not take the initiative to intervene in the internal affairs of the Ryukyu Kingdom.
In 1609, the thirty-seventh year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, Tokugawa Ieyasu inherited Toyotomi Hideyoshi's ambition of external expansion. He sent the Satsuma clan from the neighboring Ryukyu Kingdom to lead 3,000 soldiers to invade Ryukyu, capture the Ryukyu king, and send troops to supervise Ryukyu's internal affairs.
The Ryukyu Kingdom became a puppet government of the Satsuma Domain.
In 1654, the King of Ryukyu sent envoys to the Qing Dynasty to request for canonization. Emperor Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty conferred the title of King Shoji as King of Ryukyu. Ryukyu became a vassal of the Qing Dynasty. However, in fact, the Ryukyu Kingdom professed its vassalage to both the Qing Dynasty on the surface and the Satsuma Domain in reality.
The official tribute trade income with the Qing Dynasty was once again exploited by the actual suzerain Satsuma Domain. This domain was also the only private domain that could obtain income from international trade in a disguised way after the shogunate announced the seclusion of the country. The Satsuma Domain was able to have enough in the Tokugatsu era two hundred years later.
The capital became the main force in the overthrow movement and then became one of the principal persons in the reform government. Some people think that this is not unrelated.
In May 1853, the U.S. naval fleet arrived at Ryukyu. Japanese representatives admitted to the United States that Ryukyu was a distant country and that the Japanese emperor and government had no right to decide on the opening of its ports. In 1866, the last Ryukyu king Shōtai succeeded to the throne.
In 1872, Japan openly and unilaterally declared that the Ryukyu Kingdom belongs to Japan's internal vassal, and the Ryukyu Islands are Japanese territory, and officially occupied Ryukyu. In 1874, Japan used the Peony Society incident as an excuse to absurdly claim that "killing Ryukyu people is killing Japan."
People!" and then sent troops to invade Taiwan, China.
In 1875, the Japanese army occupied the Ryukyu Islands by force, and prohibited Ryukyu from paying tribute to China and being enshrined by the Qing Dynasty. It abolished the Chinese era name and changed it to the Japanese Meiji era name. Although the Qing Dynasty was weak and incompetent, it always insisted on the issue of Ryukyu sovereignty that it belonged to China.
No concessions.
On April 4, 1879, the Japanese invaders forced the last Ryukyu king Shōtai to be exiled to Tokyo, changed Ryukyu to Okinawa Prefecture, and began to implement brutal assimilation, enslavement and colonization policies.
In 1879, the Qing government and the Japanese government began negotiations on the Ryukyu issue. The Diaoyu Islands were not included in the negotiations, which shows that the Diaoyu Islands are outside the Ryukyu Islands. However, in the end, China did not agree to the demands of the Japanese invaders.
In September 1880, under pressure from various countries, the Qing government refused to sign the treaty because once signed, it would mean that China not only had sovereignty over Ryukyu. After that, the Japanese invaders simply pretended to be deaf and did not mention it again.
After returning to the islands, there was no mention of the signing of the treaty.
The Ryukyu issue was postponed until the Sino-Japanese War of 1898. As the defeated country, the Qing Dynasty ceded Taiwan and Liaodong, and had no say in the Ryukyu Islands issue. From then on, the fact that the Ryukyu Islands had territorial sovereignty began to be gradually forgotten. However,
Li Ningyu, who returned to the late period, did not forget that at this time everything was surging secretly. Li Ningyu thought to himself that if he didn't make a sound, he would have to be amazing.
