Following France's defeat in the Great War, the Empire of Japan "persuaded" France to hand over the former French Indochina for a suitable amount of compensation which came as a respite for the battered French economy.

Later, the Japanese persuaded the Netherlands to do the same with the Ducth East Indies.
