Explanation:

1. This is a key event in 20th-century East Asian history, where Japan created a puppet state in northeastern China.
2. This marks the start of large-scale Japanese invasion of central/eastern China, a major WWII-era event.
3. The quote frames Japan as a dominant power controlling Manchukuo (Manchuria) and East Asia; a map showing Japanese control of Manchuria and expansion into East Asia would support this hierarchical, expansionist framing.

4. The Dutch East Indies (now Indonesia), or other oil-rich Southeast Asian islands such as Borneo
