The Second Sino Japanese War (1937 - 1945)

On the night of July 7, 1937, Japanese and the Chinese troops exchanged fire in the vicinity of the Marco Polo Bridge. This launched a full scale invasion of China. It was primarily a military conflict between the Republic of China and the Empire of Japan. It is known as the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression (中国抗日战争) in China. It is also often regarded as the beginning of World War II in Asia.
