	Russo-Japanese War Summary
		The huge debt burden of the war prevented the army from obtaining the extra forces some of its leaders felt essential to defend Japan's new position in Asia, and it was to clash with an alliance of the navy and the Seiyukai in the constitutional crisis of 1912–1913.
		Although the Japanese had consistently defeated Russian forces throughout the war and not just in the first battle, this string of defeats for the Russians might be attributed in no little part to the heavy loss of morale incurred from the first battle.
		In the war, the Japanese army treated Russian civilians and prisoners of war well (the same cannot be said of Korean and Chinese prisoners), without the brutality and atrocities that were widespread during World War II.

		The essential of an operation on interior lines is to go against individual objectives with one's entire combined force, in other words, piecemeal defeat of an enemy split laterally or an enemy split in depth; and the concentration of combat power and the time element are of the greatest value for it.
