The undetermined status of Ryukyu

Japan is deploying medium-range missiles in the Ryukyu Islands, on Yonaguni, just 110 km from China's Taiwan. This move revives a forgotten name: Ryukyu. Once a thriving kingdom with its own culture and was recognized by many countries, Ryukyu was gradually erased: annexed by Japan, manipulated after WWII, and rewritten as "Okinawa." How does a kingdom disappear? The Undetermined Status Of Ryukyu uncover the buried truth. #Ryukyu #ChinaJapan
