Written in chronological order, the book has 13 chapters featuring 121 documents and maps. The first 12 chapters explain, based on detailed historical facts on the Diaoyu Islands, the rise and decline of the Ryukyu Kingdom and the historical roles of China, Japan, and the United States in the history of the kingdom. The final chapter is an overview of the Sino-Ryukyuan, Japan-Ryukyuan and US-Ryukyuan relations, and further clarifies the issue of ownership of the Diaoyu Islands and their strategic position. The book demonstrates that Ryukyu did not have sovereignty over the Diaoyu Islands, refutes Japans claim that these islands were a part of the Ryukyu Kingdom, and reveals the causes and consequences of the Sino-Japanese conflicts created by the United States. The book examines the 500-year friendship between China and Ryukyu, recounting moving stories. Lastly, citing ancient documents and more, the books proves that the Ryukyus never owned the Diaoyu Islands and that these islands belong to China. 001446550 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed May 13, 2022). 001446550 651_0 $$aSenkaku Islands$$xInternational status. 001446550 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001446550 7001_ $$aXiaohua, Tong,$$etranslator. 001446550 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9811665451$$z9789811665455$$w(OCoLC)1265457149 001446550 830_0 $$aChina academic library. 001446550 852__ $$bebk 001446550 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-16-6546-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001446550 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1446550$$pGLOBAL_SET 001446550 980__ $$aBIB 001446550 980__ $$aEBOOK 001446550 982__ $$aEbook 001446550 983__ $$aOnline 001446550 994__ $$a92$$bISE
