The nation that was particularly worried about Japan's victories in the early 20th century was Russia. This concern came to a head in the Russo-Japanese War (1904–1905), where Russia feared the growth of Japanese influence in areas that Russia also had interests in, such as Korea and Manchuria. The unexpected victory of the Japanese over the Russians marked the first time in modern history that an Asian power defeated a European power in a major conflict. This victory significantly increased Japan's standing and influence in the region and underscored Russia's vulnerabilities, thereby causing great concern within the Russian Empire.
