Scottish-Colonial Kyushu border dispute

The Scottish-Colonial Kyushu border dispute was a border dispute between the Scottish Empire and the Colonial Empire. While Scotland held full control over the northwestern regions of Kyushu prior to the First Worlda War, the Colonials claimed them due to them being a direct part of the Japanese Home Islands. It led to some tensions between the two empires, but it never caused a full war.
During the First Worlda War, it was the main base of operations for Scottish forces fighting in the Japanese front as well as Korea. After successfully pushing back Scottish forces throughout Japan, The Colonials crossed into the Scottish-controlled part of Kyushu, capturing it. The land was de facto annexed by the Colonials due to it already being claimed by them for years, however the Scottish still believed it was theirs. In 136AD, the Scottish Empire gave up all claims to the area as part of their new policy of isolationism, ending the dispute.
