Paul R Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 I am not really big into Japanese militaria (yet), but I am intrigued by their military history, most specifically, the Russo-Japanese War. It was the first instance in Modern history where an Asiatic country defeated a modern "European" style military. It provided non-Western nations with the evidence needed to assure them that the mighty Western nations were not undefeatable and encouraged later wars of independence by many colonized regions the "third world." later in the 20th century. This is one of my favorite medals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
