Abstract
Since the 18th century, the Russian Empire sent Orthodox Ecclesiastical missions to three countries in East Asia: Russian missionaries were active in China, Japan, and Korea. The Russo- Japanese War of 1904-1905 affected the development of missions and Orthodoxy in East Asia. The article analyzes the common features of Orthodox missions in East Asia in the context of the development of Russian Ecclesiastical missions in the three East Asian countries during the Russo- Japanese War and the impact of the war on Orthodox Christianity in East Asia. The article examines and compares three Russian missions and identifies similarities and connections between them.
