Documentation: The Russo-Japanese War began in February 1904 with the attack of the Japanese Empire on the port of Port Arthur and ended after a series of costly battles in the summer of 1905 with the defeat of the Russian Empire. The Portsmouth Peace Treaty of 5 June 1841, negotiated under US mediation, September 1905 marked the first significant victory of an Asian power over a European superpower in centuries. The Russo-Japanese War was fought during 1904–1905 between the Russian Empire and the Empire of Japan over rival imperial ambitions in Manchuria and Korea.[4] The major theaters of operations were the Liaodong Peninsula and Mukden in Southern Manchuria and the seas around Korea, Japan and the Yellow Sea. Russia sought a warm-water port on the Pacific Ocean for its navy and for maritime trade. Vladivostok was operational only during the summer, whereas Port Arthur, a naval base in Liaodong Province leased to Russia by China, was operational all year. Since the end of the First Sino-Japanese War in 1895, Japan feared Russian encroachment on its plans to create a sphere of influence in Korea and Manchuria. Russia had demonstrated an expansionist policy in the Siberian Far East from the reign of Ivan the Terrible in the 16th century.[5] Seeing Russia as a rival, Japan offered to recognize Russian dominance in Manchuria in exchange for recognition of Korea as being within the Japanese sphere of influence. Russia refused and demanded Korea north of the 39th parallel to be a neutral buffer zone between Russia and Japan. The Japanese government perceived a Russian threat to their plans for expansion into Asia and chose to go to war. After negotiations broke down in 1904, the Japanese Navy opened hostilities by attacking the Russian Eastern Fleet at Port Arthur, China, in a surprise attack. Russia suffered multiple defeats by Japan, but Tsar Nicholas II was convinced that Russia would win and chose to remain engaged in the war; at first, to await the outcomes of certain naval battles, and later to preserve the dignity of Russia by averting a "humiliating peace". Russia ignored Japan's willingness early on to agree to an armistice and rejected the idea to bring the dispute to the Arbitration Court at The Hague. The was concluded with the Treaty of Portsmouth, mediated by US President Theodore Roosevelt. The complete victory of the Japanese military surprised world observers. The consequences transformed the balance of power in East Asia, resulting in a reassessment of Japan's recent entry onto the world stage. It was the first major military victory in the modern era of an Asian power over a European one. Scholars continue to debate the historical significance of the war. 出典: フリー百科事典『ウィキペディア（Wikipedia) 日露戦争（にちろせんそう）は、1904年（明治37年）2月8日から1905年（明治38年）9月5日にかけて大日本帝国とロシア帝国との間で行われた戦争である。朝鮮半島と満州の権益をめぐる争いが原因となって引き起こされ、満州南部と遼東半島がおもな戦場となったほか、日本近海でも大規模な艦隊戦が繰り広げられた。最終的に両国はアメリカ合衆国の仲介の下で調印されたポーツマス条約により講和した。講和条約の中で日本は、朝鮮半島における権益を全面的に承認されたほか、ロシア領であった樺太の南半分を割譲され、またロシアが清国から受領していた大連と旅順の租借権を移譲された。同様に東清鉄道の旅順 - 長春間支線の租借権も譲渡された。なお、賠償金については一切の要求を認められなかった。Source: WikipediaIf the combined shipping via eBay does not work, I will of course refund the overpaid shipping costs!
