Historical Background of the Cruiser "Varyag"
The first-rank cruiser "Varyag" was built in the USA at the William Cramp & Sons shipyard for the Russian Imperial Navy and commissioned in 1901. It became a symbol of heroism during the Battle of Chemulpo on February 9, 1904, at the start of the Russo-Japanese War. Facing overwhelming Japanese forces, the crew chose to scuttle the ship rather than surrender, leaving a legacy of courage and self-sacrifice.
