About the Russo-Japanese War
The Russo-Japanese War (1904–1905) was fought between the Empire of Japan and the Russian Empire over influence in Korea and Manchuria. It marked the first time an Asian power defeated a European empire in modern warfare, and had a major impact on world history.
The Manchurian Army
The “Manchurian Army” refers to the Japanese Army forces dispatched to Manchuria (present-day Northeast China), where they fought decisive battles such as the Siege of Port Arthur and the Battle of Mukden.
