The Taft-Katsura Agreement was a diplomatic understanding reached in 1905 between the United States and Japan, outlining each country's interests in East Asia, particularly regarding Korea and the Philippines. This agreement was significant as it marked the U.S. acknowledgment of Japan's dominance over Korea while Japan recognized the U.S.'s control over the Philippines, paving the way for increased Japanese influence in Korea during the subsequent colonial period from 1910 to 1945.
