I kept most of those, but felt I had to make a few limited changes : roughly :
[color="#40E0D0"]added Fukien[/color] which was the actual original economic influence area of Japan, and was missing
conversely, [color="#40E0D0"]removed Kuching[/color] which, in spite of name suggests, is NOT in China (it is not Kunming) but in Sarawak, Borneo, and was historically colonised by British
there is no way Japanese would have gone there - this is not 1941 folks, Japan fleet comes 6 th after the big five (5 Europen "Puissances" plus USA (thanks to Mahan) less Austria) even after Russia BUT Russian fleet is spread between 3 distant areas (Black sea, Baltic, Far East) and less modern than Jaapn in 1905
there is no way any responsible Japanese cabinet would have considered antagonizing Britain and looking overly agressive in British sphere - this is valid even regarding the Dutch

Japan walked on eggs ! nor was Japan ready to go, logistically in 1905, nor had Japan colobnists (like in Korea or Formose) or trade interests there
therefore Kuching is a big
no go
kept other objectives as historical (Haway will never be Japanese lest the US player be complacent or the Japanese ujncautious, but ..., Philipines are there to be duly removed by US-Japan agreement), lots of Japanese objectives in China are just "for the show" - Japan can't annex them ! - I let them, normally Japan may play a spoiling game, or an atypical "fight China as a training field and a VP cow during war" can be played by a Japanese player. Historically, Japan, weak, was not irrealistically ambitious and did not want to confront powerful Europen powers - he did for Russia because he had too, his ambitions were to become part of the club and be treated as an equal (equal
colonizing power, that is ..)
I [color="#40E0D0"]swapped Harbin , north, for Mukden[/color], that Japan historically won in 1905
I [color="#40E0D0"]added again Harbin for Russian revolution provisio[/color], plus added a bonus for [color="#40E0D0"]war against germany in 1914 (Japan won Quingdao[/color] - Marianas are already in the list)
