I think that it is really immature that a country the size of Japan is trying to extend its sea borders I was searching this topic on the internet I found a site that was pro Takeshima It said that Korea was illegally claiming the land That is not true I agree that older historical evidence is being ignored from the Korean side They need a mediator because each country and government is out to persue their own agenda CIA World Factbook is calling them the Liancourt Rocks I don t like either government very much The sad thing is the Japanese Educational System is teaching that the island is Takeshima and is Japan s with no hard evidence The map the Japanese are using as evidence is a outdated map of feudal Japan in 185os It is inaccurate At that time more than half of Asia was Japanese territory
