This may be a transitional name as we move away from World War II in the Pacific. It was, however, what the Japanese called the war. Like Wars of Vietnam, it is a convenient way to refer to a group of wars, in this case principally from 1868 to 1945, and the political system (i.e., Japanese militarism) that led to them.

It is an open issue whether to include internal wars such as the overthrow of the Tokugawa Shogunate, the defense against Mongol invasion, and even the interaction with the U.S. Perry Mission of the "black ships".
