Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere

Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere was a plan created by Japan during World War II (WWII). Japan wanted to create a big area in East Asia that was friendly towards Japan and that people could trade freely in. The plan was for countries in the area to work together and help each other be more successful and to co-operate better with each other. The plan was never fully realized because the war ended before the plan could be put into place.
