Answer 1

The correct option is D 3,2,1,4

Japan won the war against China in 1895, and won Port Arthur. Russia sent its troops to Manchuria. In 1904, Japan fought a war against Russia and won back Port Arthur. After 1905, Japan took over the foreign and domestic policy of Korea. Later on, a Japanese diplomat was killed by a Korean activist. This led to the annexation of Korea by Japan in 1910.
