The Russo-Japanese War (8 February 1904 - 5 September 1905) was the first great war of the 20th century which grew out of the rival imperial ambitions of the Russian Empire and Japanese Empire over Manchuria and Korea. The major theatres of operations were Southern Manchuria, specifically the area around the Liaodong Peninsula and Mukden, the seas around Korea, Japan, and the Yellow Sea. The resulting campaigns, in which the Japanese military attained victory over the Russian forces arrayed against them, were unexpected by world observers. As time transpired, these victories would transform the balance of power in East Asia, resulting in a reassessment of Japan's recent entry onto the world stage. The embarrassing string of defeats inflamed the Russian people's dissatisfaction with their inefficient and corrupt Tsarist government, and proved a major cause of the Russian Revolution of 1905.

Spain, Catalonia, Barcelona. French occupation. On 13th February 1808 troops of the French army, under the command of General Duhesme passed through Barcelona on their way to Valencia. The citadel of Montjuich was guarded by a garrison of Captain General Ezpeleta to whom Duhesme requested to alternate with his troops in the protection of the fortress. Ezpeleta agreed and the French took advantage of it to occupy the citadel during a change of guard. On 29 February General Lechi, commanding the French troops, ordered a review. As his soldiers were passing before the gate to the citadel, Lecchi ordered the leading companies to wheel to the left. The Spanish sentries were completely shocked and French troops were soon inside the enclosure. Engraving. Historia del Levantamiento, guerra y revolucion de Espana by the Conde de Toreno.
