I think I was in graduate school when I realized that notions of national identity are a modern concept. More typically people fight for their family or clan.

[@Maus_Indahaus]

What I'm going to say is not gonna apply in every part of the world, every period or every culture, but human society shows signs of cultural evolution. First they fought for their families and clans/tribes, than for their religion, then for their nation/nationality, then for their ideology. This is not counting any of those fighting for money, of course. Some parts of the world are still stuck in some stages of this revolution, as even today we have people fighting for religion (Just look at Middle East) or even in Europe we have SOME Albanians and Montenegrins/Serbs from Montenegro that still have loyalties to their tribes, or some people in some parts of the world still very loyal to their families. Also the concept of nationality is still relatively recent so it's not gonna just vanish, but fade as time goes by, surviving in some parts of the world longer, and to small extent still felt in parts of the world where ideology is a dominant form of loyalty of people. Right now we are probably on the crossroads as major ideology/ies crumbled (communism), religions are slowly forgotten, so I can't really say what will future people be loyal to. Maybe continents they live on, or the Planets, or Humanity as a whole, or life with all forms of living beings included, or corporations? Hard to tell, but humans have always divided into groups that disliked and fought each other

[@bushy9780]

@@Maus_Indahaus exactly. maybe all of this recent "leaked navy alien footage" is world leaders trying to kickstart the next cultural evolution by "providing proof" of a common enemy. Not to mention movies and other media have been trying to influence this paradigm shift with stuff like "King Kong vs Godzilla" or "Avengers". We're very close to adopting an "All for one planet" mindset, there's just a couple of roadblocks like those you mentioned. This pandemic set us back too, closing borders and blaming/ridiculing other countries.

@@Maus_Indahaus how do you draw the line between Religion and Ideology?

[@Maus_Indahaus]

@@priestesslucy3299 Depends, sometimes such line is thin. Religion is a collection of believes in existence of certain supernatural entities that created the world, gave life, control one's 'destiny' etc. Ideology is a belief that a certain form of government should be established or is necessary for existence of people, and usually those that disagree should be eliminated. As an example of modern ideology, I'd mention obsession with virtual animated KZbinrs/streamers

If they tried population control, anthrax or any element that can affect carriers without showing symptoms for more than 2 weeks, while simultaneously inflict harm and incurable symptoms than the COVID strain. If the COVID pandemic was a result of biochemical warfare, while succeeding in tactical, short-term objectives (mass infection and economic failures), it has failed in all of its strategic objectives (economic recession and civil unrest (civil war or anarchy, not BLM)) in terms of strategic value. COVID pandemic could be easily avoided, should draconian measures were applied, like China.

[@LucMantique]

​@@edi9892 Having common sense never hurts. I don't really care whether if the COVID strain came out of Wuhan or Fort Detrick, what only matters is the data about the known cases, methods of infection, spread pattern/speed and mortality rate. It is tragic for anyone to die, but in a bigger picture the number of deaths is relatively small. Even with the possible falsified cases around the world, data has shown that mortality rate always is ~3% on average, with variables such as healthcare and medical supplies. However the strain can evolve, either increased infection rate or mortality rate, but never combined or group with other viruses. I get this a lot, and no, it is not compatible with the Ebola strain or any known dangerous viruses at all. Your point is right. COVID-19 in itself is not that deadly for humans, it's deadly because of the consequences it leaves. Fun fact: Do you know that Rabies has the highest mortality rate of all of disease in the world, of 99.999%? Once the first symptoms are exhibited, death is inevitable. There are only 29 known survivors, most of them have sequelae (the side effects of the disease left on the body after treatment) from mild to severe.

[@sharkronical]

I'm guessing that documentary didn't fail, but instead couldn't explain it easily, which is why youtubers like Linfamy are awesome at simplifying these

[@GARfearfak]

@@sharkronical , no, the documentary literally equated a modern nation middle eastern nation, wich may lay claim to be some kind of inheritor/successor nation to one of the ancient middle eastern empires, with the entirity of the ancient empire. The descriptions was in the same veine as if I was to treat "Austria" as an valid all encompassing term that can be savely equated with the entirity of the Holy Roman Empire at it's largest extension. And it would be the same as treating "Itally" as a valid all encompassing term that can be savely equated with the entirity of the actual Roman Empire. Modern nations can obviously trace their descendence back to historical Kingdoms, Empires and other kinds of territories, but equating them as one and the same is demonstrably wrong and suggests either a poor understanding of history, or alterior motives. And as Linfamy perfectly illustrated in this video, it is absolutely feasable to summarise the differenciate between the modern Nation of Japan and feudal Japan, as far as it is functionally relevant to the topic at hand, in an video like this.

[@lucanic4328]

A lot of people in the "military history world" point out that the two mongol invasions drastically changed the warfare in Japan. This is based on two wrong hypothesis, namely that the Japanese warriors of the period fought in arranged duels between peers while shouting their names and heritage (which is incorrect and based on epic tales 200 years older), and that both invasion brought intensive challenges for the Japanese samurai (again incorrect because both invasions hardly succedeed in securing a foothold in Kyushu, let alone the entirity of Japan and lasted combined less than a year) as they were barely saved by the kamikaze. The truth is that the invasions kickstarted the fall of the Hojo regency and the Kamakura Shogunate, which will lead to a period of civil war that lasted a good amount of the 14th century, the Nanbokucho jidai. While not as long nor as intense as the more famous Sengoku period, the Nanbokucho jidai with the Kenmu restoration, the rise of the Ashikaga and the conflict within the new shogunate brought all the innovations in terms of arms, armors and tactics that are usually associated with the conflicts with the Yuan dynasty. It is good that this video address this topic in a way by bringing in the real effects of the mongol invasions on the Japanese society and government of the period, good job!!

[@lucanic4328]

@CK Lim Well that may have played a role as well, but to be fair I think that it was the lack of land distrubutions and rewards after the two invasions plus the efforts to prevent a third one that deaden the bound between the Shogunate and its subordinate. The fundamental tie between the Shogunate and its vassal, which was that of reward and land after the call to arms, was broken as there were no lands to acquire or conquer. Therefore when Go Daigo lead his uprise he had succesful ground due to dissatisfaction of many Samurai under the Hojo.

Well, when they pray, obviously it has to be addressed to a certain kami, or just any kami Will do. The point is, we trace back from the result to the cause. It was typhoon, so obviously it was the work of "Kaze no Kami" or Kami of the Wind, or maybe Kami of the Rain, Thunder also contributed. The death of Khan, Kami of Death, duh. So to any priests out there, praying to Kami of Fire, Kami of Stone, Kami of Iron, etc, is obviously the meh ones. Priests praying for general Kamis, basically any Kami Will do, is considered so so, in helping the country. Those who exactly asked for Kami of Wind, Rain, Thunder, got the credits for the Typhoon. Those who prayed to Kami of Death, Rebellion, Assassination, maybe also Plague (since the information is sea apart, they won't know what killed Khan until months or even years after) get the credits for killing the Khan. Fire is obviously cool in nature and as powerful element, but obviously they didn't die because of fire, which means, Kami of Fire was just chilling, not working, so those who prayed to Kami of Fire were meh. Now apply this logic to know which priests is the talented ones.

The war situation of the Mongolian army was unfavorable and the rout continued.The Mongolian army was hit by a typhoon.However, many Mongolian troops were not damaged by the typhoon.Therefore, the war continued even after the typhoon. 高麗史/卷一百四 六月，方慶、周鼎、球、朴之亮、荊萬戶等，與日本兵合戰，斬三百餘級。日本兵突進，官軍潰，茶丘弃馬走，王萬戶復橫擊之，斬五十餘級，日本兵乃退，茶丘僅免。翼日，復戰敗績，軍中又大疫，死者凡三千餘人。 元史/卷165 十七年，加鎮國上將軍、都元帥。時朝廷議征日本，禧請行，即日拜行中書省平章政事，與右丞范文虎、左丞李庭同率舟師，泛海東征。至日本，禧即捨舟，築壘平湖島，約束戰艦，各相去五十步止泊，以避風濤觸擊。八月，颶風大作，文虎、庭戰艦悉壞，禧所部獨完。文虎等議還，禧曰：「士卒溺死者半，其脫死者，皆壯士也，曷若乘其無回顧心，因糧於敵以進戰。」文虎等不從，曰：「還朝問罪，我輩當之，公不與也。」禧乃分船與之。時平湖島屯兵四千，乏舟，禧曰：「我安忍棄之！」遂悉棄舟中所有馬七十匹，以濟其還。至京師，文虎等皆獲罪，禧獨免。 元史/卷129 二十年，遷征東行省丞相，征日本，遇風，舟壞，喪師十七、八。 The Mongolian warships built in Korea were tough. 高麗史/卷三十 八月丁未，遣郞將秦良弼，押呪人、巫女如元。帝召之也。丁未，世子謁帝于紫檀殿，鄭可臣、柳庇等隨入。有丁右丞者奏：「江南戰船，大則大矣，遇觸則毁，此前所以失利也。如使高麗造船，而再征之，日本可取。」帝問征日本事，洪君祥進言曰：「軍事至大，宜先遣使，問諸高麗，然後行之。」帝然之。 元 王惲　秋澗先生大全文集　卷第四十 大小船艦多為波浪揃觸而碎唯勾麗船堅得全遂班師西還 The Japanese army annihilated more than 100,000 Mongolian troops and Mongolian warships. The Japanese troops captured 20,000 to 30,000 Mongolian soldiers. 元史/卷208 敗卒于閶脫歸，言：「官軍六月入海，七月至平壺島，移五龍山。八月一日，風破舟。五日，文虎等諸將各自擇堅好船乘之，棄士卒十餘萬于山下。眾議推張百戶者為主帥，號之曰張總管，聽其約束。方伐木作舟欲還，七日，日本人來戰，盡死。餘二三萬為其虜去。九日，至八角島，盡殺蒙古、高麗、漢人，謂新附軍為唐人，不殺而奴之。閶輩是也。」蓋行省官議事不相下，故皆棄軍歸。久之，莫青與吳萬五者亦逃還，十萬之眾得還者三人耳。 From the history book of Mongolian scholar Zheng Si-xiao (1241-1318). "The typhoon destroyed the ships.Only 400 ships remained.200,000 Mongolian soldiers were left behind, they were killed by the Japanese. " 鄭思肖『心史』中興集 元韃攻日本敗北歌「辛巳六月半、元賊由四明下海、大船七千隻、至七月半、抵倭口白骨山、築土城駐兵対塁。晦日大風雨作、雹大如拳、船為大浪掀播沈壊、韃軍半没於海。船僅廻四百余隻、二十万人、在白骨山上、無船渡帰、為倭人尽刎。山上素無人居、唯多巨蛇。相伝、唐東征軍士、咸隕命此山。故曰白骨山。又曰枯髏山。」 After the war, the Japanese threat theory was formed in Mongolia and China. Mongolia imported katana from Japan because the war drew attention to katana's reputation. Mongolian cavalry in the 1960s became mercenaries and used guns and katana on the battlefield. From the history book Xīn shǐ of Mongolian scholar Zheng Si-xiao (1241-1318)."The Japanese are brutal and not afraid of death. Even if ten Japanese people encounter 100 enemies, they will fight against them. If they don't win, they all fight until they die.If they do not die in the war, they will be killed by the king's hand when they return.Japanese women are also very temperamental and should not be attacked.katana is extremely sharp. " 鄭思肖『心史』中興集 元韃攻日本敗北歌 倭人狠不懼死，十人遇百人亦戰，不勝俱死，不战死，歸亦為倭主所殺。倭婦甚烈，不可犯。幼歲取犀角刈　小珠，种額上善水不溺，倭刀極利，地高險難入，可為戰守计。 Mongolian scholar Wang Yun (1228-1304)"Japanese soldiers are equipped with bows, katana, and armor.There was no spear. The cavalry are united.katana is long and extremely sharp. All the soldiers are brave and do not seem to be afraid of death. " It is written that the samurai were fighting in groups instead of single combat. 秋澗先生大全文集 (四部叢刊本)/卷第四十　而過但弓以木為之矢雖長不能逺人則勇敢視死不畏 The courageousness of the Japanese soldiers and the difficulty of invading the sea due to the defeat of the Mongol invasion also served as a deterrent to suppress the conquest of Japan by the later dynasties. The Ming dynasty's debate on Japan after the Yuan dynasty was discussed three times in total at Hongwu Emperor, Yongle Emperor, and Jia-jing-di Emperor. Hongwu Emperor (1328-1398) demanded that the Japanese prince submit to the Ming dynasty and suppress Japanese pirates. However, the prince refused to accept Hongwu Emperor's request by sending a reply saying that if the Ming army invaded Japan, he would counter it. Hongwu Emperor was furious at this reply, but he said he had stopped conquering Japan because of the defeat of Kublai's invasion of Japan. 明史/卷322 十四年復來貢，帝再卻之，命禮官移書責其王，幷責其征夷將軍，示以欲征之意。良懷上言：臣聞三皇立極，五帝禪宗，惟中華之有主，豈夷狄而無君。乾坤浩蕩，非一主之獨權，宇宙寬洪，作諸邦以分守。帝得表慍甚，終鑑蒙古之轍，不加兵也。

Honestly, feudal Japan and its government was such a mess on so many levels, it's almost unbelievable to imagine how stong and organized it became in later times.

So samurai are more like the crusaders of Europe than I originally thought. It makes me more sense, men will always be men. No matter what part of the world you’re in.

[@nora_evans]

I think calling Golden Orda as Mongolians is kinda wrong. There were many ethnicities in that army. Kazakh, Uzbek, Uygur, Tajik, Tartar, Bashkir, Kyrgyz people were in one empire

[@Orgil.]

actually no.calling Golden Orda Mongolian is correct .Just like Yuan(mostly chinese ) and Ill khanate(mostly persians).Mongols were minority in their empire.its about ruling class the elites,they were Mongol.

[@maggintons]

So the samurai had a similar organisational issue as the crusades?

In the last few decades of the 20th century and into the present, Japan was again invaded by Mongolians, who came to dominate the Japanese national sport of sumo wrestling. Mongolians are about 7% of all professional sumo but about one third of the sumo in the top division, and five of the last six Yokozuna have been Mongolian by birth.
