1. Greater East Asia Co Prosperity Sphere

   Linked via "Mariana Islands"

   Geographic Extent and Administration
   At its peak in 1942, the Sphere encompassed a vast territory stretching from the Kuril Islands in the north to the Dutch East Indies (now Indonesia) in the south, and extended eastward toward the Mariana Islands.
   Administration varied significantly across the occupied territories, often creating overlapping and contradictory governance structures between the Imperial Japanese Army (IJA) and the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN).
