The Japanese government should urge that controversies of historical awareness, in their history textbooks, such as territorial sovereignty over Dokdo, and Japanese military comfort girls are expressed correctly and then taught accordingly. If the Japanese government doesn’t acknowledge their aggressiveness from the past nor apologize for their lack of historical awareness, the world will not trust Japan. An example of this acknowledgement could be drawn from Germanys’ post world war Ⅱ acceptance of their past. The Japanese government must admit the facts about the comfort girls, confess to the deception in their history textbooks, and reconcile their leadership``s absurd remarks. Henceforth, Korea, China, and Japan, should write in collaboration to amend the Japanese history textbooks together. This paper analyses and investigates Japan``s distortions of their history found in their textbooks.
