Libau to Madagascar to Cam Ranh: a fleet that arrived exhausted, fouled, and politically already damaged by shooting at British trawlers (Dogger Bank). Coaling was a global logistic epic. Rozhestvensky's choice of the Tsushima route (versus a longer Pacific loop) made the meeting likely.
Togo's "U-turn" and the T, then a night of destroyers. Suvorov, Oslyabya, Borodino, Alexander III -- the named wrecks of the English diagrams. Nebogatov surrendered remnants on the 28th. The Baltic Fleet ceased to be a tool. Roosevelt's mediation, Witte's diplomacy, and a treaty that gave Japan a free hand in Korea and a position in Manchuria -- without a huge indemnity, which sparked riots in Japan.
The war was over; Korea's independence was not saved. Japan: Togo as nelson-like saint. Russia: a humiliation in the revolution year 1905. Korea: a strait battle that licensed a protectorate. English navalism: a proof that "Asiatic" fleets could master the line of battle -- a racist surprise the sources record and we should name.
The timeline keeps year, place, and what moved. If “Surrender of remnants” is the movement, the figure is 05 and the year is 1905.1905
