, but few places were as ravaged as Japanese-occupied China. Between the Japanese invasion of Manchuria in 1931 and the end of the war in 1945, some 20 million Chinese people were killed — and approximately 3,000 of the unluckiest civilians suffered some of the most torturous deaths of the entire war.

In 1936, the Imperial Japanese Army established Unit 731, a top-secret research division tasked with studying the latest developments in chemical and biological warfare. From cutting off limbs and reattaching them on the other side of the body to submerging captives in freezing water to purposefully give them frostbite, there was no limit to the brutality of Unit 731. In all, the department's atrocities, including the germ weapons of theirs that were later deployed, are believed to have killed as many as half a million people.
