Which one of the following is NOT an explanation for the expansion of World War I to Asia, Africa, and the Pacific? European nations carried their animosities into their colonies. Japan saw the war as an opportunity to grab German colonies. The German invasion of neutral Belgium was a profound breech of international law. Europeans were forced to recruit soldiers from their colonies because of the demands of the war. Japan, the United States, and the Ottoman empire entered the conflict, giving it global significance.

There where numerous reasons why the World War II became a global war. People from the colonies were mobilized to fight. The colonial powers were carrying their animosities in their colonies. Countries from all over the world got involved in the war. Battlefields in multiple continents were taking place. All in all made it a real global war.

Japan though did not saw the war as an opportunity to take over German colonies. For starters, the Germans and Japanese were on the save wavelength, and they were allies. Also, Germany was not a country that was a colonial power, so even if the Japanese wanted to do so, they couldn't have gotten something that doesn't exist.
