=== Korean Empire ===
By the [[Treaty of Shimonoseki]] article 1 of the first Sino-Japanese war, Korea was independented from China. The 26th king of [[Joseon]], Gojong changed the nation's name to ''Daehan Jeguk'' ([[Korean Empire]]). And he also promoted himself as an emperor. The new empire accepted more western technology and strengthened military power. And [[Korean Empire]] was going to become a neutral nation. Unfortunately, in the [[Russo-Japanese war]], Japan ignored this, and eventually Japan won against [[Russian Empire]], and started to invade Korea. Japan first stole the right of diplomacy from Korean Empire illegally. But every western country ignored this invasion because they knew Japan became a strong country as they defeated Russian Empire. So emperor Gojong sent diplomats to a Dutch city known as [[The Hague]] to let everyone know that Japan stole the Empire's right illegally. But it was failed. Because the diplomats couldn't go into the conference room. Japan kicked Gojong off on the grounds that this reason. 3 years after, In 1910, Korean Empire became a part of Empire of Japan. It was the first time ever after invasion of Han dynasty in 108 BC.
