Nations in Southeast Asia (in particular British Burma and French Indochine) were enticed by Japan's promise of deliverance from European colonialism, and then found themselves further oppressed and fighting against their own self-proclaimed liberators.

That man sacrificed himself to save everyone in the society. I salute to him, the most honourable person in the story.

This beer's for you, Lu Hao Dong. Massive respect for what you did, risking your life to save so many others by burning that book. And even after they tortured you, you didn't spill the beans. Put simply, there are some cultures out there that would deify a man for what you did.

Lu sacrificing to burn the book is very honorable. Knowing you’d be killed but doing it anyways to save others is heroic.

Later, Sun Yat Sen married a Japanese wife named Kaoru Otsuki and had a daughter named Fumiko, then after some years, Sun went to British Malaya(now Malaysia) to gather the Overseas Chinese support to fight against the Manchu Dynasty. Sun and Otsuki truly loved each other, but by the time Sun went to British Malaya, Otsuki never saw him again. When Sun Yat Sen was in British Malaya, Sun had another girlfriend named Chen Chuifen. In British Malaya, Sun made a personal plea for financial aid at the Penang Conference held on 13 November 1910 in Malaya. The leaders launched a major drive for donations across the Malay Peninsula. Penang Conference was the turning point in the history of China, the Yellow Flower Mound revolt and Xinhai revolution was the results of Penang Conference. As for Sun Yat Sen's Japanese wife Kaoru Otsuki and daughter Fumiko, both of them were adopted by Miyagawa, a heartbroken moment for both Kaoru and Fumiko.

As someone who went to the Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou, I am really proud and honored to see his story being told in such detail. I have learned a lot from your video. Thank you so much!

To be fair even if the Imperial China survive the revolution it will collapse sooner or later because it's ravaged by corruption. The collapse probably happened during World War 2 when everyone is at play. Some options are: 1. New better Imperial China 2. New Imperial China but still same corruption 3. China republic but it will struggle. There's also chance of breaking up into smaller countries.
