	Battle of Tsushima - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-05)
		The Battle of Tsushima (Japanese: 対馬海戦), commonly known as the "Sea of Japan Naval Battle" (Japanese: 日本海海戦) in Japan, was the last and most decisive sea battle of the Russo-Japanese War of 1904–1905.
		The Tsushima Strait is the body of water eastwards of the Tsushima Island group located roughly midway between the Japanese island of Kyushu and the Korean Peninsula, the shortest and most direct route from Indochina.
		At the battle of Tsushima Admiral Togo was the officer commanding in Mikasa (the other divisions being commanded by Vice Admirals, Rear Admirals, Commodores and Captains and Commanders for the destroyer divisions).

	Naval Campaigns: Tsushima - from CDAccess.com
		The battle of Tsushima began on May 14, 1905 in the Tsushima Strait between Japan and Korea.
		Tsushima includes the original game engine from the first Naval Campaigns game, plus the new feature of Objectives, which provide play balance in scenarios that would otherwise be one-sided.
		Given the course of the actual battle, it is not really surprising that the Battle of Tsushima scenarios tend to favor the Japanese, but the other scenarios are more balanced and suitable for play against human opponents.

	Tsuneko, Heroine of the Untold World War II Tsushima Maru Tragedy
		Little did Tsuneko and her shipmates realize, however, that the 6,745-ton vessel named the Tsushima Maru on which they were steaming out of port on August 21,1944, would within hours become one of the most monumental maritime catastrophes of the entire Second World War.
		At sea tomorrow, the vessel, a 30-year-old cargo ship would be torpedoed by an American submarine, the USS Bowfin, and within 12 minutes, it would explode, break in two and sink with the loss of 1,508 lives, including two of her own family along with 42 members from her home village.
		Upon her rest and recuperation on the island of Kyushu, the original destination of the ill-fated Tsushima Maru, Tsuneko was sent into harm's way again by military authorities to labor in an aircraft factory near Tokyo where kamikaze suicide planes were bring built during the final days of the war.

	[KS] Tsushima Island
		It was contained in a special edict (or "instruction," ) on the eve of the Tsushima campaign, addressed to the entire Korean population, and was clearly intended to raise morale, and present the campaign as a righteous cause.
		In contrast to the general weakness or absence of statements that Tsushima is Korean, there is a very clear view of Tsushima as Japanese land by Sin Sukchu (1417-1475), who as a young official was prominent in the diplomatic delegation that went to Japan to negotiate diplomatic relations through Tsushima and a commercial agreement (1443).
		Tsushima is mentioned constantly and regularly in Japanese historical sources from the earliest to those of the late traditional period (we won't make any appeal to statements from Meiji times on, although on the question of Tsushima sovereignty I find no reason to doubt them).

	Pleshakov Takes a Look at the Battle of Tsushima
		On May 14, after a nine-month journey to the Tsushima Straits near Japan, his entire fleet was quickly annihilated by Japan's newer, faster, better-trained and equipped fleet.
		The story of Tsushima has been overshadowed by the battles of World War II and largely undocumented (Rozhestvensky declined huge sums of money to write a memoir, refusing to criticize his government even after being courtmartialed for Russia's surrender to the Japanese).
		Tsushima launched the "modern age" of battle technology, says Pleshakov, and established Japan as a superpower in the years leading to World War II.

		The pace of technological change in the beginning of the 20th century led to a tremendous gap between the navies of 1904 and 1916.
		A patch for Tsushima is in progress that should fix the main gun and torpedo ranges, but torpedo speed and lethality and the secondary "system" appear to be hard wired into the game, making a change there less probable.
		Coordinated action of more than one or two formations is also lacking; in one alternate history Tsushima scenario, half of the Russian Fleet wandered off to the East instead of moving to join up with the part I was battering.

		My view, though, is that Tsushima was not a Korean tributary, because its relationship with the island also provided a relationship with Japan proper, and in fact the latter was a particular goal of both the KoryO and Chosôn governments.
		Remember that the normalization of 1443 was negotiated in Japan with the Ashikaga shogunate, not on Tsushima with the daimyo^, although he was a party on the Japan side.

	Battle of Tsushima
		Occurring near the end of the Russo-Japanese war, the battle of Tsushima was a decisive setback for the Russians, and signaled the rise of Japanese pre-eminence in the Western Pacific.
		The decisive results of this fleet action in the Tsushima Straits were not a result of exceptional Japanese action; rather, the Japanese executed simple, effective maneuvers, which succeeded so stunningly due to the ineptitude of the overmatched Russian forces.
		Politovsky, Eugene - From Libau to Tsushima (E.P. Dutton & Co: New York, 1906), 171 This Franco-Japanese agreement is especially important in consideration that a Russo-Frankish Entente had been in effect since 1891, so in effect, the French had been co-opted by the Japanese to turn on an ally.
