@WWWHHHAAATTT?
Like any other country Japan, China, and Korea all resented western colonialism. Each on their own level if you will. The Japanese wanted to keep their own culture but at the same time Westernized. They really did put most of their resources into Westernizing. So Japan actually welcomed this Westernization. However, at first the Japanese were against it quite very much so. There is a story or a legend I guess that states that when the Japanese refused to open it's doors to any foreigner, the U.S. sent 4 ships (the four dragons as the Japanese stated) to force Japan to trade. China on the other hand did the exact opposite. China was already practicing it's beloved age old idea of isolationism. The Chinese had the Boxer Rebellion. The Boxers were a peasant based group that was anti-imperialistic and anti-foreign. The American history books are correct, they did at times kill innocent foreigners but you have to understand that their situation is like that of the middle east. They were forbidden to go to many areas of their own country. They were also forced into the Opium war where the Chinese refused to buy anymore Opium but the British forced it upon the Chinese to buy it. There was also a second opium war in which France also fought along side the British. The Opium war led to the yielding of places such as Hong Kong. Korea was basically influenced more so by the Japanese. If you ask any Korean, they will gladly tell you of the atrocities committed during the Japanese's stay up until they were defeated in WW2

I can't redo the paragraphs for you, but in all honesty your paper seems fine as far as content. Try removing the pronouns "you" and "I"; it will make it more proper. Also, state what you've researched as facts; avoid the "I guess" and rambling. The more specific and to-the-point you are, the more clear it will be.
ok thanks:)
No problem. :) My biggest suggestion would be to read it aloud. Trust me, it helps! I took two composition courses last year, and both of my professors emphasized reading aloud and avoiding extra words. Forget the word count! It will eventually fill up. Really, though, the best way to catch tiny errors and make essays clearer, is by going over them a few times. Best of luck!
