I was only translating what was written on the map. Besides the labeling of the strait as the Korean Strait, the Sea of Japan is also labeled as "Sea of Korea" (대한해).<BR/><BR/>By the way, if you plan on posting more than once, you should chose a unique nickname so that we do not confuse you with other posters.Gerry Bevershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14311939520870098017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26948035.post-18889510810096083862007-11-03T21:39:00.000+09:002007-11-03T21:39:00.000+09:00It is right to say "Korean Strait".

Thank you for sharing this, Gerry.<BR/><BR/>I guess after they had gained modern knowledge of maps with latitude and longitude, Korean people simply realized that "Dokdo/Takeshima" was outside of historical Korean land. It coincide with many other maps in official Korean text books in the early 1900s. <BR/><BR/>By the way, what does it say on Tsushima?Kaneganesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15533339719864245857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26948035.post-21831640532381006812007-10-28T23:58:00.000+09:002007-10-28T23:58:00.000+09:00Steve"I fell asleep after the first line."Sorry to...Steve<BR/><BR/>"I fell asleep after the first line."<BR/>Sorry to hear that.<BR/>I suggest you to see a doctor.<BR/>Narcolepsy<BR/>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcolepsy<BR/><BR/>"Gerry how can you seriously cite this map for reference of latitude and longitude"<BR/><BR/>Reread what Gerry wrote.(Go directly to the 4th line so that you won't fall asleep before you read it.)<BR/><BR/><BR/>""Dokdo" (Liancourt Rocks) was not shown on the map.<BR/><BR/>Jesus Christ, Dokdo, the pride of Korea, is not shown in the map by the independence-minded Koreans!!<BR/><BR/>What does it mean?

I said that the map was made in 1922, which means that under the Japanese the official name for Korea was "Joseon." Since the people who made the map referred to Korea as "Republic of Korea," that means they made the map to reflect an independent Korea. And since Liancourt Rocks (Dokdo) was not included on their map, that suggests that they did not consider them to be a part of their independent Korea.<BR/><BR/>If you still do not get it after a second reread, try a third.Gerry Bevershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14311939520870098017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26948035.post-19686725998446822882007-10-28T21:59:00.000+09:002007-10-28T21:59:00.000+09:00Erm, Gerry the Japanese had already annexed Lianco...Erm, Gerry the Japanese had already annexed Liancourt in 1905.<BR/><BR/>duh.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
