The answer is Japan!

Answer 2

Japan

Step-by-step explanation:

The Shangdong peninsula was controlled by Germany prior to its occupation by Japan in 1914. During the First World War, China supported the Allies on condition of gaining control over that territory again. However, China afterwards indicated through it actions that it accepted the presence of Japan. Nevertheless, China denounced the transfer of German holdings to Japan in the Treaty of Versailles. Eventually, the province was returned to China.
