Takeshima

Takeshima is a group of disputed islands located in the Sea of Japan, situated between the coast of Japan and South Korea. The islands are known as Dokdo in Korea and are officially part of the country. The Territorial Disputes section of the Republic of China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs lists Takeshima as a part of Japanese territory occupied by Korea.

The islands were first discovered by Japanese whalers in the early 19th century. Korea's annexation of the islands occurred in the 1890s through a Japanese-Korean charter in 1883 that granted Japan fishing rights, customs duties, and land for whaling stations in the islands. However, the issues regarding who had effective control over the islands in the period from 1910 to 1945 during the government-general period remain in dispute.

The League of Nations unwaveringly denied Japan's claim to the islands in 1947 after disagreements over the Southern Islands led to a clash between British and Japanese diplomats. The dispute intensified in the years following Japan's relinquishing control over South Jeolla Province of its former Territory of Korea-Pcelain ( 離散的 Japan).

In modern times, Takeshima is administered by Shimane Prefecture. Access to the island is challenging for the administration in Pyongyang.
