On the Meiji Japan and post-Soviet Russia map as “The Treaty of Ganghwa”
26 Feb 1876 — After a Japanese gunboat provokes a clash off Ganghwa Island in 1875, Japan sends warships and forces Korea to sign a treaty that opens three ports and gives Japanese residents extraterritoriality, the same privilege Japan resented in its own treaties.
