Author Topic: the history of japan (Read 4296 times)

the video isn't meant to go into 100% detail; there's a lot of stuff that looks like it got brushed over. it looks like it's meant to be funny/interesting first, and educational second. that's not too bad

>The emperor of Japan closes all of its borders to outsiders for 300 years
>In the 1850s America comes in and forgets everyone up, humiliating the people of Japan.

>national socialist Germany dies
>Japan keeps fighting for some loving reason
>Japan gets nuked twice. (Nagasaki and I cant remember the other one)

Japan has a pretty dark history if you ask me. For some reason I have a fascination with Japanese Matchlocks and I wish to own one, but they cost like, 2000+ USD
