[@ivarsmeerdijk1749]

Fun fact, the guy who conquered japan and made it impossible to climb the social ladder started his career as the guy who's job it was to bring Nobunaga his shoes.

[@Whitewingdevil]

Didn't Nobunaga literally call him Saru(monkey), or is that just an anime/manga thing and not historically accurate?

[@ivarsmeerdijk1749]

@Whitewingdevil he did. He also called him "bald rat" Edit: I just looked it up. It's not confirmed that he ever called him monkey, but he did call him bald rat

[@TB26]

Oh, Hideyoshi.

[@hakairyu1]

“Because there’s a religious implication to the Emperor being the son of god” The Portuguese, when they discovered Japan, actually made a direct comparison to the Pope, as a figure who is very important authoritatively but doesn’t wield all that much power directly. So yeah, spot on

[@arvidfrykman9850]

"Monkey fun" is an overly literal translation of "sarugaku", which is a kind of travelling variety show. Think of it as the Japanese equivalent of a circus or those old west medicine shows, and you're not too far off the mark.

[@brandonthesteele]

and here I thought it was about inviting monkeys on your property and perpetrating some shenanigans

[@Moshinoki]

Yes, Japan's emperors are believed to be direct descendants from Amaterasu, therefore the lineage hasn't been broken in over 2000 years.

[@RealArcalian]

The puppets had no one controlling them since the last war when the Shogun's brother and son wiped each other out, and the country had balkanized. The Emperor, having no real power, could do nothing. Until someone came along to grab hold of his strings.

War wasnt seen as "not dangerous" in the early days; it was seen as a "noble" thing like 2 knights having a sword duel and one wins and becomes king while the other is remembered for his bravery even in death. However, they failed to realize: 1, supersonic molten steel pellets hurt far more than a simple cold steel blade And 2, it aint about "Man vs Man" like a knight duel, but "Man vs Machine Gun" in a stupid pointless bayonet charge

[@Skyte100]

I dont think steel pellets hurt more than a steel blade, they can just cause said harm faster and to more people. Steel blade, one person at a time. Bullet, how fast can it fire?

[@avivirpanda]

So, small corrections on what you said. 1. Intel was retrieved about the attack; however, a date wasn't fully known. They sent a telegraph, but it arrived when staff was mostly gone. 2. Most of our ships were at Pearl Harbor(PH), but our aircraft carriers were not. Became they were the highlight during the war. People inflate that means nothing important was at PH. 3. Lusitania wasn't a cause for us to join, it was a reason to not side with Germany. A better example would have been the Maine in Cuba.

[@milleniumsword1558]

Honestly the first time i hear this take. The entire pacific battelship fleet was there (plus a ton of smaller ships + port facillities) thats in no way shape or form "nothing important"

[@damiennightmaresx7950]

ima just slowly inch by this part of the video cause ima trust the guy thats paying the youtuber over a rando

[@avivirpanda]

@milleniumsword1558 rereading my post, I can see where there was confusion. I was trying to say that because people see that the fact that the aircraft carriers were not at PH, and everyone knows how important they were in the war, people wrongfully say "nothing important" was at PH. It's mostly just conspiracy theorists, but as this video showed, some people confuse that info.

[@milleniumsword1558]

For the bad weather thing: it wasn't just bad weather. It was typhoons (hurricanes). Even in WW2, the US had issues with typhoons when scaling up to invade Japan and they had much sturdier ships.

[@yeshevishman]

Yeah, and asking "did they not prepare for it" is like asking "do Floridians not prepare for hurricane season?" Like, OF COURSE they prepared, but some things just come down to luck of the draw.

[@Redingold]

I believe those typhoons are where the word kamikaze comes from, it's the Japanese for "heavenly wind". The Japanese saw the destruction of the Mongol fleets as a divine intervention to protect Japan. I assume that the use of this term to refer to suicide attacks in World War 2 started as an invocation of this same idea of protecting Japan.

[@vinrid]

In 3:45 it is hiragana. There was a "kana" written but that means "katakana" and "hiragana" combined. They are the non-chinese characters

[@Yotanido]

Technically, the kana are also derived from Chinese characters, just like the kanji are. They just deviated significantly more, with many kanji still being exactly the same as their Chinese origin. IIRC the kana are different ways of writing the original character in cursive. (And Japanese cursive is mega cursed)

[@hitoshitaira573]

漢字をただ直輸入したのではなく、日本古来の言語である大和言葉とすり合わせる形での導入が図られました。 中国由来の発声に基づいた音読み、大和言葉由来の訓読みが同時に用いられているため、中国と違って日本では一つの漢字に複数の読み方が存在しています。

[@kinagrill]

oh regarding the hurricanes happening when the Mongols tried to invade, TWICE, and failed TWICE iirc they were totally unexpected both times, as in total freak weather events. They are what gave word to the concept of Kamikaze. Aka. Divine Wind.

[@aquila4460]

To be fair, both of the times the Mongols were already failing when the Typhoon hit. The second time it only was as devestating because the Mongols had tied all their ships together, so the Japanese couldn't pick the ships off one by one.

[@kinagrill]

@@aquila4460 True enough

[@charityquill4965]

It kinda makes sense, from the perspective that Japan views nature and weather were powerful divine forces, and seeing an enemy getting obliterated TWICE to the same phenomenon would strengthen their belief in those forces

[@franksmithii608]

They were "wide" because back in those times being "heavy" was a symbol of status and wealth showing you could live comfortably enough to get "heavy"

Fun fact! Bronze Age Japan was absolutely obsessed with bells and mirrors; there's even a legend about one of their deities, Amaterasu (the sun kami), hiding out in a cave until she was lured back out with a mirror, likely originating in the Japanese bronze age.

[@cynicallysalty4592]

I recently went on a deep dive of the native Ainu peoples of Japan in the North. It's fascinating, they have so many simularities to other native peoples around the globe, specifically some native Americans. Yet their language is completely unique, not from any other lanuage groups. Their history genetically tells of their migration to Japan, North Asia and the Katchumack Penisula! You could just imagine a group of people who split off from others possibly on their way to North America through Beringia. Not sure if the time periods coensided, I'm still educating myself but it's just fascinating.

[@Armorion]

13:50 to keep it brief, Imperial Japan is much closer to 1940s Germany than people like to admit. Just swap what groups they were targeting.

The ONE, SINGULAR thing about fax machines that is good in a business sense: you get instant feedback on if your message arrived at the destination or not. With emails you don't know if/when the message will be read, but with a fax you can know for certain it at least arrived. Does that make it worth using? In extremely niche and specific cases, maybe.

[@assassinlv8274]

Funny thing though - for certain soft like Outlook - it's possible to set a requirement for reading the mail to send automatic response that the mail is read. :) Meaning - those who will read that mail - will have to automatically send response that they've read it.

[@TheCityCesspool]

"Implied moral control" has to be one of the most Japanese statements I've ever heard. You're 100% on implied vs specific

[@KawaiiNeko333]

3:55 That's hiragana. Katakana is more for foreign words and names, like if they spell hanba-ga for hamburger.

[@Jacen32272]

Fax machines still have their place. Mostly for contract work and signed documents. But if you are not a lawyer you likely don't need one.

[@Celestia282]

If you want to watch another channel that makes entertaining pop history, I'd suggest Oversimplified. It's not as condensed as Bill Wurtz, but they are named that for a reason.

[@cardinalhamneggs5253]

01:20 Fun fact: on the right is a bronze mirror, and on the left a bronze bell. They are the respective inspirations for the Pokémon Bronzor and its evolution Bronzong.

My grandfather, who was a WWII navy vet, told me that FDR's "mix up" was basically an open secret in the navy... pretty much everyone cursed him for getting them into the war.

[@pokeperson1000]

The silence after the bomb drop was a respectful moment of silence in an otherwise fast paced video that had no brakes in its infodumping. Its existence in this video is also probably a part of the reason why the world history video didn’t slow down upon the mention of the atom bombs dropped.

[@cinderblockstudios]

If it hasn't already been said "The history of Japan" came out about a year or two before "the history of the entire world, i guess" So you're watching things in reverse order. Also if you're not familiar with the 1800s entry of the US in Japan...you should watch The Last Samurai.

[@oliviernaud4373]

hmmm, culture wise you could have heard the name of old japanese clans in any anime/manga that had a little bit of historical accuracy. As for video game, oldest one with present them all clearly would be "Total War: Shogun 1 & 2". I havent played Seikiro or Ghost of Tsushima but they must refer to them every once in a while.

@@hitoshitaira573 I doubt he is same person from reading what history stories i read. Admiral Yi died during last battle of war at Noryang River, by stray bullet (?) against 500 Japanese ships. Yi and others had been sieging last remaining Japanese stronghold and those 500 ships were sent to assist that last hold Japanese controlled. He likely did attack convoy that was sent to free remaining troops, however i have read war ended on same day as Yi died (December 16, 1598) and officially war was considered over after last remaining Japanese troops had reach Japan (December 21, 1598).

I don't know if you've heard of them, but the channel Extra Credits has a show called Extra History that I'd think you'd enjoy. For your Japanese history needs, they've got series' on the Sengoku Jidal to the end of the Samurai, all the way up to the rise of Japanese militarism in the lead up to WW2, which I'd think you'd particularly like. As far as economic topics go, they've also got you covered there (Albeit not with Japan specifically), having series' on the importance of natural resources in WW2, the South Sea Bubble, Trustbusting in the early 20th century, and even the history of paper money, which I think you'd really get a kick out of.

[@beterbomen]

There's no one like Bill Wurtz, but maybe you should check out both Extra History and Oversimplified. They also talk about history in a humorous style.

[@HiddenWindshield]

Japanese has three different writing systems. Kanji is the complex one that they stole from China. Hiragana and Katakana (together, the Kana) are both simplifications of a few characters from Kanji that represent specific sounds rather than specific words. So: "私" is the Kanji for "I" or "me", but it can be pronounced "watashi", "atashi", "asshi", etc. "あ" and "ア" are the hiragana and katakana (respectively) for "a", and have no meaning beyond just being a letter.

"Puppets with no one controlling them" is referring to the fact that the emperor was little more than a figurehead, while the real power was held by the shogunate, which was in the midst of a succession crisis.

Bill Wurtz is making another video like this, but he said that it's "extremely extremely huge," and that with him making his other content it will take "an extremely long time." He said this December of 2018, so that goes to show how much work he's putting into it

O.O Woah. Now this is something I need to watch out for when (if) it finally comes out.

[@LucklessPaul]

Not to squander your hopes completely but based on the month and year you got this quote from, one could assume the project he was working on got stopped short and instead all we got was a 1m27s video with a few random facts about Greenland and Mexico and stuff, which he titled "Wild Frolicking Adventures of Informational Education" - Feb 2019. There is still a chance of something bigger I hope but I also can't find through searching where you got this quote from so idk if there'd be any follow-up.

As to the cultural impact on the firebombing, the scene in Love Hina where the elderly folk cower in fear in response of the shadow of play flying over head was reference to impact of the firebombing.

Well...my dad is a history nut...and that rubbed off on me....and from age 10 to 25 I was pretty heavily obsessed with all things Japan....and am a research gremlin who devours text on all topics I find even remotely interesting.... I *COULD* explain a lot of the things in this video in more detail....but you don't want me to do that. You don't want to read the thesis length and detail heavy essay I would post to your comments. You have no idea how much self-control it is taking for me to not go into it. I *like* Japanese history. It's *interesting*. I will say this, though. The reason the person of the emperor was sacrosanct mostly dates back to the ancestor cult of the Yamato kingdom's ruling family which went on to become the imperial lineage of Japan, the Kojiki and Nihon Shoki both adapt the stories of how the Yamato kingdom's rulers were descended from Amaterasu specifically and reconfigure it into her sending her grandson down to bring order to the whole of Japan a.k.a. the world as opposed to one fairly isolated rice kingdom, and - with Shinto being dominant over how people lived their lives and handled their dead while Buddhism mostly was dominant over perceptions of the afterlife and how to get into a good one - that made the person of the emperor an important symbol even if the idea that the emperor had to be seen as being in charge or who even was emperor was deemed less important. Basically, for most of Japanese history the emperor has been a symbol more than an actual ruler even during and after the Meiji Restoration.

[@gokbay3057]

The funniest period is that era where not only the Emperor is a powerless puppet but the Shogun is also a powerless puppet with Shogun's Regents (Shikken) having the power.

Well… Korea was actually under the Chinese Sphere of Influence before the First Sino-Japanese War. And I see why the Second Sino-Japanese War happened… The Meji Constitution… What I mean is that if you have both the Military Staff and Prime Ministry trying to maintain control of each other, there may be problems down the line. It was a great reform for the time, but by the time of the Second Sino-Japanese War, we can tell - thanks to Extra History - that Japan had little, if any, control over its military.
