  1. And that’s was the beginning of the collapse of Russian Empire and time when Japan became Great even before anime was invented.

  2. The Russians were doomed from the start. Crews of poorly trained peasants put in uniforms and dumped onto ships. They almost didn’t make it to Japan because they shot at British fishing boats thinking they were the Japanese. France had to intervene diplomatically and calm the British down.

  3. Ah yes ye olde Russian L them sucking at war is really just a tradition hope they never change

  4. For those interested, if you’re ever near Portsmouth, New Hampshire, you can make a day in the summertime out of visiting their WWII submarine in the morning, followed by lunch at the restaurant where the peace treaty for this war was signed, and then spend the afternoon at one of the many beaches in the area.

  5. Why is Russia so reticent to reform and organization?

  6. Battle of Tsushima, Russians sailed halfway round the world and had their ass handed to them.
