China and Japan have a long and somewhat epically conflicting history. Japan has repeatedly invaded, bullied, trampled and undermined China. The Chinese and Japanese have fought 2 major wars and have had many other incidents such as the Manchurian Incident, and the Rape of Nanking cause tensions to be high between both nations.
