The Russo-Japanese War 1904-1905: Causes, Events, and Results
The Russo-Japanese War of 1904-1905 was fueled by various factors such as Russia's need for a Pacific harbor, Japan's emergence on the world stage, and competition over buffer regions like China and Korea. The conflict saw significant battles like Port Arthur, Yellow Sea, Yalu River, and Tsushima. The Treaty of Portsmouth, brokered by Theodore Roosevelt, marked the end of the war and led to domestic unrest in both Russia and Japan. The war reshaped international politics and highlighted an Asian country defeating a European power, setting the stage for future global conflicts.
