Even if the war were to cost as much as 300-400 million [[yen]] - twice as much as that with China - it was believed the economic growth of the intervening years would be sufficient to allow the private sector (e.g. people & corporations buying war bonds) to help cover the costs of the war. However, as early as April 1904, with the war already underway, the government anticipated an annual military budget of 580 million yen.<ref>[[Peter Duus]], "Economic Dimensions of Meiji Imperialism," in Peattie and Myers (eds.), ''The Japanese Colonial Empire, 1895-1945'', Princeton University Press (1984), 143-146.</ref></ins></div></td></tr>

Meanwhile Japan was heavily engaged in Korea, successfully increasing her influence in that country. Russia also had interest in Korea, and although at first Russians and Japanese managed to peacefully coexist, it was not long before tensions on both sides led to hostilities. Negotiations between the two nations began in [[1901]] but made little headway. Japan then strengthened her position by forming [[Anglo-Japanese Alliance|an alliance with Britain]] in [[1902]]. The terms stated that the United Kingdom would come to the aid of Japan should war break out in East Asia.</ins></div></td></tr>
