How did Japan's industrialization lead to Japanese imperialism?

I would say that the rise of industrialization in Japan brought their economy high also. Since they had a good industry, they began to become richer and wealthier. Since Japan was very nationalistic back then in the Imperialism age, they used most of their money for weapons and military use. This made their military have more power and weapons which led them to imperialism. They believed that they were strong, and they wanted more territory.
