Japan-Korea Protectorate Treaty

Japanese: 日韓保護条約 - にっかんほごじょうやく
Japan-Korea Protectorate Treaty
Following Japan's victory in the Russo-Japanese War, the Imperial Korean government was forced to sign this treaty on November 17, 1905. It is also known as the Second Japan-Korea Treaty or the Eulsa Protectorate Treaty. As a result of this treaty, Korea became a Japanese protectorate and lost its status as an independent country in the international community. To achieve this, the Japanese government took active steps, first obtaining support from both the United States and Great Britain for Japan's rule over Korea (the Katsura-Taft Agreement in July 1905, and the Second Anglo-Japanese Alliance Treaty in August of the same year). This was truly imperialist diplomacy.

Japanese:
日露戦争に勝利した日本が大韓帝国政府に強要して1905年11月17日に締結した条約。第2次日韓協約または乙巳(いつし)保護条約という。この条約によって韓国は日本の〈保護国〉とされ,国際社会における独立国としての地位を失った。これの実現のために日本政府は積極的に動き,まず日本の朝鮮支配に対するアメリカ・イギリス両国の支持をとりつけた(1905年7月の桂=タフト協定,同8月の第2次日英同盟条約)。それはまさに帝国主義外交であった。
