Hey Guys,

I'm looking to do something of a Japan-wank TL but within a set of reasonable diversions from OTL. Essentially I'm looking for a good reason for another major power to intervene in the Russo-Japanese War on the side of the Russians, thus prompting the UK to honour the terms of her treaty with Japan.

France, with lots of money tied-up in Russia is an obvious option - but what would prompt them to risk the growing entente with the UK? Could it be limited to some sort of colonial conflict?

Germany is another choice, but again, what would make them care enough about the Far East and the Czar to get involved?

All ideas are welcome, I'm looking forward to seeing what you guys think.
