The Mysterious Shogunate That Ruled Japan For 265 Years | The Mark Of Empire (Full Episode)

[@bethserran]

Oh, I missed your documentaries for so long, Peter. It is so nice to hear your voice again. The Portuguese navigators really brought the egg yolks deserts to a lot of Asian countries. Like, the Philippines Islands was discovered by a Portuguese navigator named Ferdinand Magellan. We have our famous Flan and I thought it was the Spaniards that brought to our country who ruled for over 300 years.

[@stevenv6463]

I'm thinking of Macau egg tarts too.

[@pensieri2596]

Thank you so much for this wonderful documentary - I have totally enjoyed watching it. Please continue to get Peter Lee to explore other parts of the world, including the migration of Chinese and Indians to Southeast Asian countries like Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia. There are many of us outside Singapore and Asia who are interested to know more about the region's unique cultures and histories!

[@timeclock3969]

Excellent documentary

[@brodull1142]

Calling centuries old shogunate that reference in every novel, movies and manga as mysterious is kind of pandering. Kind a like calling the three kingdom as secret society despite it's known by everybody

I Love Japan🇯🇵❤

[@BuruIgeru]

In all fairness to the Unifiers roleplayers, they manage to just portray the level of bluster popular images of them have. (Shoutout to the "Ieyasu" cosplayer for the bald-faced lies haha.)

Dymyo.. always listen to their traditions.. hmmmm..

Anyone who said "I never killed a man" is absolutely a man with most kills 😂

[@scorpzgca]

Wow excellent video I learned a lot about Japan culture, history and heritage here thank you

[@Shineon83]

The Japanese just have so much class & such lovely manners…. (A very large country in Asia could learn to behave much better by studying the country & its people)….

[@chenyung6268]

Yes including yanks Aussies and kiwis….like admitting being descendants of butcher robber and rapist….time to go home

[@samlai3362]

Very interesting and insightful history of Japan !

[@Shineon83]

I always felt that of all Asian nations, the Japanese were (by far) the most innovative, the most driven, and had the most breathtakingly beautiful architecture, gardens & artwork (particularly watercolours & botanical drawings)….

[@genneltorres4500]

Thank you for this vedeo verry interesting.. I love the story of 3 unifiers of Japan 🗾 the story of senguko jidai..love and watching from Philippines 🇵🇭

[@babangteo2853]

I hope someday Indonesia will like Japan too, bustling without erasing traditions.

So how did the Japanese get those guns from the Portuguese? It seems it gave them an advantage against Korea in the Imjin war.

[@motorola9956]

They procured it from the Portuguese, reverse engineered it, and then mass produced it. At least that is what Quora said. Japan in those years have industrial capability to manufacture early models of teppo guns (different from Tanegashima guns)

[@rosegarden0615]

In 1543, a Chinese ship drifted ashore on Tanegashima Island in southern Japan. The Portuguese on board this ship introduced a flintlock gun.

[@johannakadar4314]

I want to see the Korean epizode but its not on KZbin

[@MyWorldIsYourOyster]

I believe you need to find it as Joseon since that was the name prior to Korea. Is this what you're interested in? (It's spelled Choson if you live in 🇰🇵 as that's the original Romanization spelling.) kzbin.info/www/bejne/h5uagGl5q9OWe80

a low crime rate of course, but there is crime all the same and sometimes as violent as elsewhere: the Japanese are human beings too and this is what we must not forget.

Shogunate Yakutza..

[@djallalnamri1]

@@sarahcesar5813 the violence of humans against themselves is everywhere the same beyond space and time and the Japanese are no exception: I saw a lot of video documentaries on YT which tempered the fascination I had for this country and as much the Japanese aesthetic is sublime as much the Japanese violence is insane especially that of the modern era between yakuzas and acculturation-deculturation.

[@sarahcesar5813]

@@djallalnamri1 ... My parents and my grandparents used to tell us the horrible stories during the Japanese occupation in our country. They said that the Japanese occupation of our country for about 3years is even worst then the Europeans imperialists. Especially regarding the only women's prisoners they kidnapped for their sexual need. And also, my parents told us how they killed those women in front of public areas. So scary and unpleasant to watch.

[@djallalnamri1]

@@sarahcesar5813 I was not aware of these facts which I only recently learned about. this is why we must seek to know the truth beyond the history books and appearances because in general we end up discovering dark secrets.

If you were a Japanese porcelain maker/designer in the 1700-1800s, you would never have to worry about going hungry : In all of the Western capitals-even the U.S.-the wealthy were willing to pay top money, and wait years,for their porcelain orders to arrive from Japan….

The first season was a lot better with more animations and better locations. You guys went to two castles but never showed much.
