Did the Russo-Japanese War elevate World War 1?
The roots were present: 1. Germany goaded Russia (the Kaiser was a cousin to the Tsar) into war with Japan in order to eliminate Russia as a competitor in Europe. 2. Britain took lessons learned from the Battle of Tsushima in May 1905 and embedded those lessons into the new battleship HMS Dreadnaught launched in 1906. It would be these DREADNAUGHTS which would fight in WW1. 3. European military officers witnessed the effects of the machine gun in the Russo-Japanese War. Then went on to field these very same weapons in WW1. Bottom line: The Russo-Japanese War of 1904 could be looked upon as a practice game for the play-off game to occur in 1914.
What is the only country in the world to change the direction of its flag depending if the country is at war or at peace?
There are no such flags. National flags are always anchored along the same side. The flag of the President of the United States has changed over the years, fueling the belief that the eagle variously faced left (toward olive branches) or right (toward its arrows). The historical fact was that Woodrow Wilson had the flag changed during his administration (including World War I) and that Harry Truman changed it back (after World War II). The original and post-1945 designs are in keeping with the design on the Great Seal of the United States, where the eagle has always faced left.
