Answer:

Japanese nationalism promoted the aggressive imperialist policy that Japan had adopted for years, culminating in its participation in World War II and its redemption after being hit by atomic bombs.

Chinese nationalism brought about the expansion of the territory, the control of foreign cultures, the Chinese revolution and the maintenance of a centralized Chinese state.

Step-by-step explanation:

Nationalism is an ideological thesis that defends the feeling of overvaluing a people with all the elements that make up the nation to which they belong. This type of positioning is very common in nations that have authoritarian and abusive governments, in addition to being common in nations that have adopted imperialist and colonialist olitics, such as China and Japan.
