Anti-Japanese sentiment, Japanophobia, or Japonophobia is intense dislike or hatred of the Japanese. Anti-Japanese sentiment comes largely from the country's militaristic, imperialist and eugenistic past, as well as its alliance with Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy in World War II as the Empire of Japan, or can be simply a extension of anti-Asian racism.
