Abstract: “Japan and the Birth of Takao’s Fisheries in Nanyo, 1895–1945” explores the development of Taiwan, particularly Takao (modern-day Kaohsiung), as a significant hub for Japan’s fishing industry during the colonial period. This development was influenced by Japan’s “Marching Southwards Policy,” which envisioned Taiwan as a strategic gateway and fortress for expansion into Southeast Asia and the broader Asia-Pacific region. The establishment of fisheries in Takao was part of a broader strategy to bolster Japan’s economic and geopolitical interests, particularly in the context of the limited size of the Japanese navy following the Washington Naval Conference in 1922
