How was Japan cockblocked from gaining full control of its rightful northern boundary (Karafuto) historically? The island is under Russian occupation and has a Russian name, Sakhalin, which is wrong.

Nah mate it's Russia now, the less weirdness the better. Let's keep it on the islands they got left.

this

japanese phonetics sound fucking disgusting or maybe thats just because weeaboos are spouting 'allegro alzheimers' everywhere. even 'japan' sounds better than 'nippon'

>How was Japan cockblocked from gaining full control of its rightful northern boundary (Karafuto) historically
They lost the war.

>Russia isn't weirder
It's a huge landmass of fucking mystery. You have no idea what happens outside of the cities - there are incomprehensibly vast swathes of nothingness where gulag survivors breed with bears and eat babies' heads.

Meanwhile, Japan is small and the population is packed in like sardines. No room for weirdness whatsoever.

>le rightful boundary meme

*cringe*

This is certainly true. Russia has horrifying crime stories worthy of any Latin American failed state while Japan has a few neurotic nerds lashing out at people.

they gained half of it in the Russo-Japanese war, but the Russians still had a say in the Treaty of Portsmouth that ended the war.

Japan initially demanded the entire Island, but Russia and the American mediators rejected it. Japan relented because there was nothing there worth arguing for at the time.

now that there's shitloads of natural gas and oil on the island, Russia's recapture of it during WWII is now paying off its dividends.

30% of victims of Unit 731 were Russians. Consider this reparations for their suffering :^)

Japs must be kept on a tight leash

By Russians annihilating entire Kwantung Army in 3 days.

>No room for weirdness whatsoever.

there is very little on that island worth fighting for

weeb

>What is Aum Shinrikio

Sakhailin and the Kurils are Russian

Japs can fuck off

Because those islands literally do and should belong to Russia.

Russian people have contributed a lot more to the world than Japanese people, so they deserve a bit of living room.

>rightful northern boundary

Dude, by technicality, they shouldn't even have Hokkaido as part of their nation. Just let Russia be Russia.

Or are you one of those nutjobs who believe in shit like ABCD?

An isolated occurence, see also neurotic nerds.

Speaking of Russia being Russia, how come Mongolia is its own country when it's become almost as Russian as the Baltic states?

>Japan is small
Its the size of fucking California.

It's a buffer state. If it becomes Russian, the Chinese will be buttblasted, and vice versa.

So it's basically Poland?

Mongolia's much weaker than Poland, even given that Poland is far from being a geopolitical behemoth. Besides, it's not like it's really a nation state in the sense of being the one and only country where these people live - there's a huge area called Inner Mongolia in China, and there are regions in Russia inhabited by ethnic groups which are close relatives of Mongols.
To sum it up, Poland is a buffer state because it was exceptionally unlucky to pop up between two great powers, and it has often tried to do something to keep/restore its independence. Mongolia, meanwhile, exists only because China and Russia permit it.

>Russian people have contributed a lot more to the world than Japanese people
objectively false

Actually, Japan continues claiming even the South Kuril islands (which it calls "Northern Territories) only because no Japanese politician can say to his voters "We know we'll never get these islands back, so let's just get over it". And the only possible scenario of it grabbing the Sakhalin is if Russia completely collapses as a state, but then good luck dealing with very angry Russians coming to claim their turf a few decades later.

>implying california is big
non american pls
also, nice job comparing a conservative nation to a liberal shithole
