This Japanese photo album illustrates Micronesia’s complex colonial histories. Prior to US presence through the UN Trusteeship, Chuuk (misnamed “Truk” in the image) was occupied by German and Japanese colonial powers. This Japanese publication “celebrates” Japan’s tenth anniversary of the South Seas Mandate.
