1938 AD World War II-Won(Barely) 15 million dead Chinese vs 2 million dead Japanese but defeats Japan's army in Mainland East Asia, and regains Eastern coast, Manchuria, Hainan, and Taiwan.


15 MILLION Chinese died during WWII?
That's really interesting. I never knew that.

The Sino-Japanese War of 1933?-1945 (aka WWII in the Pacific) was probably one of the most savage wars in the 20th century, if not the most savage. I've actually heard the death toll for the Chinese to be a little higher.(Around 20 million)

And I don't believe the Chinese ever decisively beat the Japanese prior to Japan pulling out.

Looking at The Rape of NanKing certainly shows how viciously these two powers went after each other.

The Japanese may have killed more Chinese in retaliation for the Dolittle raid than total American combat deaths in WW-II.
