Japanese cruiser Unebi : ウィキペディア英語版 | Japanese cruiser Unebi
was a protected cruiser of the Imperial Japanese Navy, designed and built in France by Forges et Chantiers de la Gironde. ''Unebi'' was named after Mount Unebi in Nara prefecture, located near the ancient capital of Asuka. Per Meiji period State Shinto mythology, this mountain was home to Japan's first Emperor, Jimmu Tenno. ==Background== During the period of increasing tension with the Empire of China prior to the First Sino-Japanese War, the development of the protected cruiser was of great interest to Japan because of its high speed, powerful armament, armour protection and relatively low cost, especially since the Imperial Japanese Navy lacked the resources at the time to purchase modern pre-dreadnought battleships necessary to counter the Chinese Beiyang Fleet.〔Brooke, ''Warships for Export'' page 58-60〕 During the tenure of Naval Minister Kawamura Sumiyoshi, three vessels were ordered: and from the Armstrong Whitworth shipyards in England, and (for political purposes), ''Unebi'' from the Forges et Chantiers de la Gironde yards of France.〔Jentsura, ''Warships of the Imperial Japanese Navy''〕
