The Battle of Tsushima was a decisive naval battle in the Russo-Japanese War. Japan's fleet under Admiral Tōgō Heihachirō annihilated the Russian Baltic Fleet after its long voyage around the world.
Tsushima stunned global observers because it marked a dramatic Asian victory over a major European empire. It altered perceptions of naval power, empire, and modern warfare in the early 20th century.
