{{Main|Russo-Corean War}}Some historians consider the precursor of the war in Asia, the [[Russo-Corean War]] (1932-1936), to be a part of the Great War. This was a punitive war fought by Russia against the expansionist [[Corea|Corean Empire]]. The Netherlands was allied to Corea and also fought in the conflict, but dropped out in 1935 after Great Britain entered an alliance with Russia. Near the end of the Russo-Corean War, Corea entered into an alliance with the Tripartite Coalition, but Corea eventually surrendered to Russia not long after, resulting in the dissolution of the Corean monarchy and the establishment of the Corean National Republic. The monarchy is in exile in [[Viet-Nam]].
