Japanese-Korean wars in A.D. 391–407 and their chronology

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  15 March 2011

Extract

Japan's gradual interest in Korea and the expansion on this peninsula goes back to the third century A.D. The establishment of the Japanese sphere of influence in Korea, and the domination of Mimana in Southern Korea, were dictated by economic, cultural, and military reasons of Ancient Japan, or the Yamato country. This in the middle of the fourth century A.D. became the strongest and most powerful of many clan (uji) rivals in the central Sovereign, Tennō in the Japanese archipelago.
