Joint Crisis Committee: the Empire of Japan Shumun Xvii JOINT CRISIS COMMITTEE: THE EMPIRE OF JAPAN SHUMUN XVII Topic 1: Russo-Japanese War Topic 2: The Development of the Protectorate of Korea Topic 1: Russo-Japanese War Assessment of the region Currently, there are three major powers standing in the way of our nation’s expansion. China has been overrun by western powers and thus provides a toehold for these powers in the region. France, Germany, and Russia all have made agreements to control railroads and other infrastructure in China. Furthermore, our nation has been embarrassed on the world stage despite our military victories in China (Koda 15). Positions of other nations in the region In 1895, we won the Liaotung Peninsula, Formosa (now Taiwan) by defeating China. However, the European powers of Germany, France and Russia have conspired against us and forced us to return the Peninsula to the Chinese. Today, this strategically important peninsula is leased to the Russians and they have established a railroad branch at its tip. This is unacceptable considering the cost in Japanese blood to win the peninsula (Koda 15). Now, Russia is again threatening our interests on the Manchurian Peninsula. Today, they have a naval base at Port Arthur, a Russian port in China, and they refuse to recognize our interests in Korea. Furthermore, since 1900, Russia has kept thousands of troops on the Manchurian Peninsula, ostensibly to protect its interests in China. Manchuria is dangerously close to Korea, a small nation which cannot defend itself from both Chinese and Russian aggression. Our foreign policy In 1898, our policy decision making group, the Genro, decided that we would remain neutral in foreign affairs since our nation does not have the power to battle with Russia, Germany, or France. This policy is known as “Submit to any hardships to achieve revenge.” However, within the Genro and the general population, there is disagreement about the direction our nation should take. Some members of the Genro support allowing Russia to remain in Manchuria in return for a Russian agreement to respect our nation’s interest in Korea. Other members favor reaching some sort of agreement with either England or Germany. Members who favor an agreement with either England or Germany generally do not believe that our nation will be able to win a war against a major western power (Moody 30). Our military Our military now is extremely well organized. It is currently split into two parts, the Imperial Japanese Navy and the Imperial Japanese Army. Both parts are under the control of a Joint Chief. Currently, our fleet has six battleships, 6 armored cruisers, 12 cruisers, 22 destroyers, and 28 torpedo boats. Since 1895, we have been increasing the size of our fleet significantly (Koda 30). Introduction: The Russo-Japanese War began on February 8th, 1904 when the Japanese launched a surprise naval attack on Port Arthur. The strike was a retaliation following the Russian rejection of a Japanese plan to divide Manchuria and Korea into spheres of influence. History: The Russo-Japanese War developed out of a rivalry between Russia and Japan for dominance of Manchuria and Korea. In 1898, Russia had pressured China into giving them a lease for Port Arthur (Lü-shun)—a port of strategic importance located in southern Manchuria at the tip of the Liaotung Peninsula. Russia thus began an occupation of the peninsula, even though (in cohort with other European powers) they had forced Japan to relinquish their right to occupation, which they had begun following their victory over China in the Sino-Japanese war of 1894 and 1895. Russia continued to add to Russo-Japanese tensions when they entered an alliance with China, and against Japan—an alliance that granted them the right to extend the Trans-Siberian Railroad across Chinese held Manchuria to their seaport of Vladivostok, and gave them control of an important strip of Manchuria. Even though Russia had built up their Trans- Siberian Railroad, they still did not have the transportation facilities needed to reinforce their limited troops in Manchuria. The Japanese took advantage of this, and had steadily expanded their army since their war with China in 1894, and by 1904 had gained a marked superiority over Russia in the number of ground troops in the Far East. This fact alone made Japan’s initial war strike all the more achievable, and resulted in an attack on Port Arthur. The Japanese and Russians thus entered a series of military conflicts in which the former suffered humiliating defeats. Japan sent an army into Korea in March of that year, which quickly was overrun. In May, Japanese army landed on the Liaotung Peninsula, and on May 26 it cut off the Port Arthur garrison from the main body of Russian forces in Manchuria. The Japanese then pushed northward, and the Russian army fell back to Mukden after losing battles at Fu-hsien (June 14) and Liao-yang (August 25), south of Mukden. In October, the Russians went back on the offensive with the help of reinforcements received via the Trans-Siberian Railroad, but their attacks proved indecisive owing to poor military leadership. The Japanese began a long siege on Port Arthur after several military assaults on it had failed. The Russian military leadership was highly divided, and in an act of pure corruption on January 2, 1905 the incompetent commander of Port Arthur surrendered to the Japanese without consulting his officers and with three months’ provisions and adequate supplies of ammunition still in the fortress. The final battle of the war was fought in Mukden in late February and early March of 1905—between 330,000 Russian and 270,000 Japanese troops. The fight was long and relentless, but eventually Russian general Kuropatkin broke off the fighting and sent his forces to the North—letting Mukden fall to the Japanese. Losses in this battle were exceptionally heavy, with approximately 89,000 Russian and 71,000 Japanese casualties. In the following naval battle of Tsushima, the Japanese gained a decisive upperhand— previously they were unable to secure their hold on the seas, and this was well timed as the Japanese government was now financially exhausted. This loss, along with growing unrest in Russia in regards to the war, brought Russia to the peace table. This war, and the loss of it, is credited as one of the main roots of the Russian Revolution.

Starting in 1592, Japan has aspired to take over Korea and claim it as their own. This struggle between the two neighboring countries continues and is the main reason for the start of the Russo-Japanese War. History In 1392, Yi Seong-gye established the Joseon dynasty (1392–1910) after a coup in 1388. King Sejong the Great (1418–1450) implemented numerous administrative, social, and economic reforms, established royal authority in the early years of his rule and promulgated Hangul, the Korean alphabet. Korea began to develop its own customs and customs similar to those of China, whom they had a close relationship with. 1392-1897 Choson (Yi) Dynasty 1418-1450 Reign of King Sejong 1592-1598 Imjin Wars (Hideyoshi Invasions) 1724-1800 Reigns of Yongjo and Chongjo 1600-1850s Two centuries of peace 1850s-1910 Foreign skirmishes threaten Korea From the late 16th century, the Joseon dynasty faced foreign invasions, internal power struggle and rebellions. Internal conflicts within the royal court, civil unrest and other political struggles plagued the nation in the years that followed. This struggle within Korea worsened when the Japanese decided to invade Korea between 1592 and 1598. The Japanese invasions of Korea comprised two separate, yet linked operations: the initial invasion in 1592 and a second invasion in 1597. There was a brief truce made between the two countries in 1596 but it was called off in 1598 when the Japanese invaded for the second time. The conflict ended in 1598 with the withdrawal of the Japanese forces from the Korean Peninsula after a military stalemate in Korea's southern coastal provinces. The invasions were launched by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, also known as the Imjin Wars, with the intent of conquering Korea and China, which were ruled by the Joseon and Ming dynasties. Japan quickly succeeded in occupying large portions of the Korean Peninsula, but the Ming Dynasty quickly came to the rescue. There were also miscommunications and wrong disbursements of Japanese supply fleets along the western and southern coasts that were enacted by the Joseon Navy. The Japanese armies and navies were forced to withdraw from Pyongyang. Although, the Japanese continued to occupy Hanseong (present-day Seoul) and the southeastern regions. Afterwards, guerrilla warfare was waged against the Japanese by Joseon civilian militias which put a hold on Japanese attacks.

    THE UNIVERSITY OF HULL Military Transformation on the Korean Peninsula: Technology Versus Geography Being a Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy At the University of Hull By Soon Ho Lee BA, Sungkyunkwan University, Republic of Korea, 2004 MA, The University of Birmingham, United Kingdom, 2005 MRes, King’s College London, United Kingdom, 2006 1 Acknowledgement I am the most grateful to my Supervisor Dr. David Lonsdale for his valuable academic advice and support during the long PhD journey. To reach this stage, I have had invaluable support from my family back in Korea and my dear wife Jin Heon. I would also like to thank my family for being so patient while I was researching. During this journey, I have obtained a precious jewel in my daughter, Da Hyeon. I will pray for you all my life. I would like to give special thanks to my late grandfather who gave me the greatest love, and taught me the importance of family. 2 Thesis Summary This thesis provides an explanation of one RMA issue: the effectiveness of contemporary military technology against tough geography, based upon case studies in the Korean peninsula. The originality of the thesis is that it will provide a sound insight for potential foes’ approach to the dominant US military power (superior technology and sustenance of war). The North Korean defence strategy – using their edge in geography and skill – tried to protect themselves from the dominant US power, but it may be impossible to deter or defeat them with technological superiority alone.

We first hear the name Yi Soon–Sin in the pattern meaning of Choong – Moo Choong-Moo was the name given to the great Admiral Yi Soon-Sin of the Lee Dynasty. He is reputed to have invented the first armored battleship (Kobukson) in 1592, which is said to be the precursor to the present day submarine. The reason this pattern ends in a left handed attack is to symbolize his regrettable death, having no chance to show his unrestrained potentiality checked by the forced reservation of his loyalty to the King. International Taekwon Do 1st Gup pattern He was one of the great Korean Naval Commanders and helped redesign the Turtle Boat. He was a great strategist and had many victories. He has been likened to Admiral Horatio Nelson for his undefeated record against seemingly insurmountable odds. Interesting he had no formal naval training. Early Life Yi, Soon-Sin was born in Geoncheon-dong, Hanseong which is now known as Seoul on the 28th April 1545. His family was part of the Korean Deoksu Yi clan. His grandfather Yi Baeg-nok retired from politics when the neo confusian reformer Jo Gwang-jo was executed in the Third Literati Purge in 1519. His father who was also disillusioned with the politics of the time did not enter government service. This was expected of him as he was from a noble family.

Signed: ___________________________________ I.D No: 10142886 Date: Monday 10th November 2014 2 Abstract This thesis aims to provide a new perspective on the development of South Korea’s Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) Business Environment by taking a cross-disciplinary look at the area. Most studies on this subject have tended to remain within the boundaries of a single discipline. In this study, an interdisciplinary approach is taken to trace more of the paths that have influenced the development. This will provide a better understanding of the area and this insight should make it easier for any prospective organisation hoping to enter the Korean market to be successful. In little over two generations, South Korea has transformed from being one of the poorest countries in the world into a global business leader. Currently, Information Technology products are at the forefront of exports from the country and the world’s largest electronics company hails from a city just south of Seoul.

Dramatic, fast-paced, tense, sweeping orchestral music.] Never make a film with kids or animals, and never set your film on a boat. These are words for filmmakers to live by, due to the high level of difficulty each one offers. Kids and dogs must be trained, and they’re easily tired or distracted and their performances rarely seem authentic. Boats, on the other hand, are their own unique complication. Their movement is affected by forces that no filmmaker can control—and therefore, you’re fighting to keep your angles and lighting correct as your set moves under your feet. You have safety problems. You have a very limited set of tools for stabilizing and lighting shots and moving your camera, and your cast and crew can get seasick! Maybe consider writing a nice story about a soldier in an army? And save yourself some trouble? No! Naval combat is something of an obsession for us on this show, in part because of the challenges inherent to doing it right! And in part because of the fascinating limitations the sea imposes on combat itself. As new technologies like CGI boats and drone cameras emerge to reduce some of the barriers to filming on the water, I’m hoping we get more and more of these films.

His Life Birth Yi Sunsin was born as the third son of Yi Jeong in Seoul in 1545. Yi Jeong named his sons after the wise emperors of China. Boyhood Yi Sunsin is said to have enjoyed playing soldiers with his friends and being the leader in the games of his boyhood. When an adult tried to pass their playground, Yi is said to have interfered him, saying, "No one is allowed to trespass on the front." . Falling from a Horse When Yi Sunsin first time took an exam for military official selection at the age of 28, he fell from a horse while shooting arrows on horseback. He broke his left leg, but he dressed his leg with the bark of a willow tree and continued the exam. The Building of the Turtle Ship The turtle ship, clad with iron and steel spikes, was strong and safe enough to clash against other ships.

  • Admiral Yi Sunsin
    Admiral Yi Sunsin < Standard Portrait of Admiral Yi Sunsin> By Artist Jang Useong in 1953 Stored in Hyeonchungsa 500 years ago on this land, there took place a big war shaking the states of East Asia. After unifying Japan in the ages of war for 100 years, Toyotomi Hideyoshi readies his 159,000 forces to move into Joseon that indulged itself in factions and peace-at-any price principle. It was the beginning of Imjin War. It was the one of the hardest national crises by the Japanese invasions that put Korean nation in the crossroads to life or death throughout 5,000 years Korean history. The 7 years war damaged Joseon severely, taking huge loss of lives, cultural assets, and ruining our land. However, whole Korean people stood against to the invasion of Japan and the war ended with the defeat of Japan. In the middle of the whirlpool of Imjin war it was Admiral Yi Sunsin who was the greatest distinguished defending Joseon and saving the people from the Japanese invasion. The most key cause by which the Japanese invaders could not accomplish the desire of conquest and help but retreat from this land was that it lost battles to Joseon navy forces and thus could not win the command of the sea. Admiral Yi, who won the greatest victories over the sea battles such as Hansan and Myeongryang victories that can not be compared with any sea fights in the world history, was a man of character -a consistent patriotism, a sense of justice, and extreme filial affection toward his parents.
