Russo-Japanese War
The Russo-Japanese War took place from 1904 to 1905 and was fought between the Russian Empire and the Empire of Japan. The primary cause of the conflict was the competition between these two imperial powers for dominance in East Asia, particularly over influence in Korea and Manchuria.
Tensions between Russia and Japan escalated over conflicting territorial and economic interests in East Asia, with both powers seeking to expand their influence in the region.
