| '''[[Japanese invasions of Korea (1592-1598)|The Japanese invasions of Korea]]''' (1592-1598) comprised a major war between [[Japan]] and the alliance of [[Ming Dynasty|Ming]] of [[China]] and [[Joseon Dynasty|Joseon]] of [[Korea]]. Japan invaded Korea on [[May 23]], with the larger objective to conquer the entirety of Asia (and the whole world)<ref name="Hawleyxii">Hawley, 2005. pp. xii</ref> by using Korea as a land bridge to China. The battles that involved 300,000 combatants and claimed more than 2 million lives took place almost entirely on the Korean peninsula and its nearby waters. The war consisted of two main invasions from Japan – the first in 1592 and 1593, and the second from 1597 to 1598.
