Contact seller4-star sellerGood. Original fold line visible. Discoloration at bottom-center. Size 14.25 x 20.25 Inches. This is a rare 1942 Asahi Shimbun Japanese map of Burma, India, and surrounding territories, made in the context of the Burma Campaign of World War II (1939 - 1945). When this map was published, Japanese forces were advancing northwards…in Burma after having rapidly conquered the capital, Rangoon. It was issued to celebrate the victory and promote the war effort on the home front. A Closer Look The map displays the topography of lands stretching from Baluchistan and Afghanistan in the west to central China and French Indochina in the east. Symbols listed in the legend at bottom-left show political boundaries, railways, cities, famous cultural sites, and the location of mines. An inset serves as a guide to the coloration on the map, reflecting meters above sea level, while another inset map shows the island of Ceylon. The stamp at bottom-center indicates that the map was approved (?) by the Japanese Map Control Co. (??????????), a censorship outfit disguised as a map publisher. The verso (back) includes information about and inset maps of Burma and India. The text on the left-half of the page is divided into sections on India and Burma that provide basic information on geography, climate, recent history, political administration, economics, demographics, and culture. At bottom-left are inset maps of (from left to right) Bombay, Delhi, Calcutta, and Rangoon. The maps on the right side of the page display (clockwise from top-left) the resources, political administrations, languages, and distribution of religious beliefs of India and Burma. The Burma Front during World War II Soon after the Pearl Harbor attack and Japanese invasions of Western colonies in Southeast Asia, a small campaign was prepared against British Burma. The Japanese were mainly concerned with cutting off supplies to their Chinese adversaries in Chongqing. They were particularly focused on the railway from Rangoon (Yangon) to Lashio near the Chinese border, where the railway connected with the Burma Road, which had recently been constructed over extremely difficult terrain through the arduous efforts of Chinese soldiers and civilians. Rangoon fell quickly in March 1942, but the fighting in Burma expanded as Chinese and British (mostly Indian) troops fought the Japanese in Upper Burma. Fighting dense jungles, mountains, disease, starvation, and monsoons as much as the Japanese, the Allies fared poorly in the opening phase of the war. As elsewhere in Southeast Asia, Japan set up a puppet government and trumpeted propaganda of a 'Greater East Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere.' This won some adherents, but a significant Burmese resistance continued throughout the war. Japan also aimed to capitalize on anti-imperialist sentiment in India, creating the Indian National Army (Azad Hind Fauj), composed of captured British Indian troops and Indian independence activists, as well as a provisional government of 'free India.' The tide see-sawed through 1943 and 1944 on two main fronts, on the Chinese border and near the Indian border. The Japanese launched a daring but ill-advised offensive into Indian territory near Imphal in the spring of 1944, which led to significant losses and a retreat into Burma. Meanwhile, Allied troops (mainly Chinese and British, but also Americans and others) had developed more effective methods for fighting in the climate and terrain, including guerrilla warfare. The Allies launched a successful counter-offensive in late 1944 and negotiated with the armed forces of the Japanese puppet government led by Aung San, convincing them to switch sides in March 1945, a critical blow to the Japanese occupation. The government of Thailand, nominally independent but under Japanese occupation, also began increasing support for resistance movements at this time. The recapture of Rangoon and Lower Burma was delayed in part by prioritizing supplies for China, which was facing.
