Answer:

The right answer is "Marked the end of the use of wooden warships powered by sails and wind."

Explanation:

One of the major developments of the Civil War (1861-1865) was the construction, use and proliferation of ironclad ships. There was also an increasing use of steam power, shell guns, rifled ordnance and screw propellers and other new technological acquisitions. All of this was a reflection of the rising role of technology in armaments.

Marked the end of the use of wooden warships powered by sails and wind.

Further explanation

Battleships are ships used for military or armed forces interests. Generally divided into aircraft carriers, combatant ships, patrol vessels, transport ships, submarines and support vessels used by the navy such as tankers and tender ships. In some countries that have seas frozen in certain seasons such as Russia and Finland, for example, icebreakers are also used.

The presence of warships began when many kingdoms or governments needed or felt the need to assert their position in the waters while providing security guarantees in the waters to protect their country and its activities such as fishing and trade. In addition, there are also those who use their ships to rob or plunder other countries through waters. The Vikings of Scandinavia, many to explore the sea to other regions with ships known as "Viking Longship" specifically designed. During the exploration, merchant ships were specifically designed to become warships so that they could also carry weapons such as cannons, both as a means of defending themselves against pirate attacks, or even to control the area they wanted.

Technological development on warships is inseparable from technological developments in the shipping world in general. At first it started with a simple sailing warship equipped with paddlers such as galleys and viking longship which was only a single deck and equipped with archers, flamethrowers or throwers. The discovery of firearms and cannons as well as increased cruising range and cannon firing range require new types of ships that have large haulage and long cruising range to the ocean that gave rise to galleon type ships.

As a driving force, developing from the sails and rowers, steam engines that use coal fuel and diesel engines that use oil fuel. The transition from coal fuel to fuel oil actually became the rationale for the emergence of the concept of energy security. This concept emerged from the thoughts of Winston Churchill, who later became the prime minister of England, about how to get fuel oil supplies for the British fleet and guard it, where at that time and even today, fuel oil is a scarce commodity, but practical enough to engine and propulsion technology.

I want to know about the First Sino-Japanese War.

timama [110]

Answer:

The Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese War refers to the war in which Japan invaded China and Korea at the end of the 19th century. According to the chronology of Chinese branches and branches, the year 1894 when the war broke out was the Jiawu Year, so it was called the Jiawu War. Japan called it the 'Japanese-Ching War', the Korean Peninsula called the 'Ching-Japanese War', and Western countries called it the 'First Sino-Japanese War'.

During the Meiji Restoration, Japan began to embark on the path of capitalism, actively invaded and expanded foreign countries, and established a 'mainland policy' centered on China; at this time, the Qing Dynasty was an empire that had returned to light through the Westernization Movement, political corruption, people's hardships, and officialdom. Various factions fought openly and secretly, intrigued and deceived, the national defense and military were strong outside the country, and discipline was lax; the world's major capitalist countries were gradually transitioning to imperialism, and Japan's aggression was supported to a certain extent by Western powers.

In 1894, the Donghak Party uprising broke out in North Korea. The North Korean government army retreated steadily and was forced to ask for aid from the suzerain Qing Dynasty. Japan also took the opportunity to send troops to North Korea to deliberately provoke war.

On July 25, 1894 (the twentieth year of Guangxu), the naval battle of Toshima broke out, and the Sino-Japanese War began. Due to Japan's long-planned plan, and the Qing Dynasty hurriedly confronted it, the war ended with the defeat of China and the annihilation of the entire Beiyang Navy. Under the military pressure of Japanese militarism, the Qing government of China signed the Treaty of Shimonoseki on April 17, 1895.

The results of the Sino-Japanese War brought unprecedented serious national crisis to the Chinese nation, which greatly deepened the degree of semi-colonialization of Chinese society;
