Japan in the Early 20th Century

Introduction
These games were developed in July 2025 by Mathew Lim (Damai Secondary School), using questions provided by MTT Lloyd Yeo (Academy of Singapore Teachers). They were created as part of a collaborative lecture and workshop on teaching Japanese militarism and the outbreak of the Asia-Pacific War, co-organised by CPDD and AST in partnership with Dr Clay Eaton (National University of Singapore).
