In the middle of 19th century, under the reign of Alexander II of Russia, revolution was on its way. The turbulence was of an academic character and was dealt with by the censoring the press. But it gradually took the form of secret associations, and the police had to interfere. There were no great, coordinated societies, but many small groups, composed mainly of male and female university and college students, which worked independently for a common purpose. Finding that the walls of autocracy could not be blasted by revolutionary publications in the periodical press and by distribution of stealthily printed appeals, the young rebels decided to “to go in among people” and to seek the support of the masses. Disguised as doctors, school teachers, nurses, nannies, factory workers, they attempted to make supporters among peasantry and among industrial center workers by revolutionary pamphlets and persuasion. In the beginning the propaganda was not much successful, because they were written in French, using a style, typical of the educated class. The abstract notions and the phraseology of socialism were obscure to the uneducated peasants and factory workers, however, when the propagandists offered Russian Translation in simpler language and spread the word that the czar had the noble intentions to give the land to the peasants, but the owners and the officials prevented him from doing so, there arose serious danger of agrarian revolt.
In 1864 Russia began to rapidly expand into Central Asia, and within a few years, Russian empire stretched from Europe to China, and from Siberia to Persia and Afganistan.. A vast territory that demanded Medical Document Translation, it was a conglomeration of various different races, languages and religions. With the building of the trans-Siberian railway, Russia now had its sights on northern China and Korea. The eastern section of the railway stretched deep in Chinese territory and well-considered steps were made to impose Russian inflence on Manchuria. Russia had all prerequisites to tighten its hold on that part of the Chinese empire and took steps to complete its take-over of Manchuria by “spontaneous infiltration”. From Manchuria, the political influence and spontaneous infiltration would naturally spread to Korea.
However, the Japanese who strongly objected to Russia’s expansion eastwards, because it had earmarked Korea for itself, intervened, declaring that it would never tolerate the Russian influence in Manchuria. What they first did was to send to the Manchurians a Chinese Translation of Russia’s plans to provoke opposition. Except that, a Korean translator was sent to warn Korean government of the impending Russian invasion. However, in 1904 it became evident that these Japanese pressures and diplomatic steps would not stop the Russian march eastwards. In February 1904, the Japanese government decided to abandon the diplomatic efforts and to declare war. For Russia, the war turned out to be a series of losses until it was formally ended by the Treaty of Portsmouth in October 1905.
