what was the great leap forward
The Great Leap Forward was a plan implemented by the China to achieve rapid social and economic reform. The plan was the brainchild of communist leader Mao Zedong, and sought to utilize China's vast amounts of cheap labor to increase grain and steel production. Peasants were ordered to make steel, by smelting scrap metal in backyard furnaces, and diverting all resources to do so. The massive effort resulted in decreased crop production, famine, and effectively no usable steel. In retrospect, the movement is known as a disaster for the Chinese people and economy.

why did japan enter world war 2
Japan entered WWII in order to gain control over East Asia and the Pacific. Before WWII, in the 30's, Japan had already invaded China in order to regain control of China. Japan was afraid of the United States' growing power in the region. Japan realized that a war with the Untied States was their only hope for total control of East Asia

why did the great leap forward start
China launched her First Five Year Plan in 1953. It was accompanied by the phased collectivization of agriculture and the nationalization, with compensation, of industry and commerce. The plan was based on the Soviet model: using concealed taxation of peasant incomes in the form of controlled low farm-gate prices, giving massive priority to heavy industry, concentration of industry in the cities, and comprehensive command planning of the economy.
