	Battle of Halhin Gol - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Battle of Halhin Gol, sometimes spelled Khalkhin Gol or Khalkin Gol and alternately known as the Nomonhan Incident (after a nearby village) in Japan, was the decisive engagement of the undeclared Soviet-Japanese Border War (1939), or Japanese-Soviet War.
		The Japanese maintained that the border between Manchukuo and Mongolia was the Halha River (also known in Russian as the Halhin Gol, or the Khalkhin Gol), while the Mongolians and their Russian allies maintained that it ran some 16 kilometres (10 miles) east of the river, just east of Nomonhan village.
		It may be said to be the first "decisive battle" of World War II because it determined that the two principal Axis Powers, Germany and Japan, would never geographically link up their areas of control.

		The Battle of Halhin Gol, sometimes spelled Khalkhin Gol and alternately known as the Nomonhan Incident in Japan, was the decisive engagement of the undeclared war between the Soviet Union and Japan in 1939.
		The battle convinced the Japanese high command that war with the Soviet Union would be futile, and hence decisively swung opinion from the strike north faction to the strike south, who argued that Japan should capture the Pacific islands and southeast Asia.
		The Russians' masterspy Richard Sorge was able to alert the Soviet government to this change of policy, which allowed the Red Army to transfer 45 divisions from the Far East to the defence of Moscow in the winter of 1941-42 and turn the tide of the war in Europe.

		The Battle of Lake Khasan (July 29, 1938 – August 11, 1938) and also known as the Changkufeng Incident (張鼓峰事件) in Japan, was an attempted military incursion of Manchukuo (Japanese) into the territory claimed by the Soviet Union.
		This incursion was founded in the beliefs of the Japanese side that the Soviet Union misinterpreted the demarkation of the boundary based on the Treaty of Nerchinsk between Imperial Russia and China (and subsequent supplementary agreements on demarkation), and furthermore, that the demarkation markers were tampered with.
		This battle was the first defeat of the Axis Powers.
