History's Greatest Naval Battles, Ep.5: Tsushima
Saturday Apr 03, 2021
Saturday Apr 03, 2021
If there was one battle the world might have wished had never happened, it might be Tsushima in 1905. This one clash set dominos falling which would see Russia become the Soviet Union, World War I erupt, and the Pacific theatre of World War 2 explode at Pearl Harbour in 1941.
In its own right it was a colossal clash of 16 battleships, 32 cruisers, 29 destroyers and multiple other warships. It announced to the globe that Japan was now a world power to be reckoned with, and its effects, already noted as global, would also have long lasting implications for Korea, China and the whole Asia-Pacific region. Implications that still exist today.
The story of how it unfolded deserves a grand plaque in history’s hall of fame.
