So far, I want to be a historian with a focus on Japanese history.
Picture below is the battle of Kamikaze 神風 (Divine wind, wind of the gods, godly wind, There are a number of ways to translate that.)
Hundreds of years fa Mongolia when at the height of it's empire invaded Japan, the Mongolian government wanted Giappone to pay tax money to Mongolia. Naturally the proud Japanese government refused, The Mongolians responded peacefully da sending in diplomats who wanted to reason with the Japanese emperor, all of these diplomats where executed da the Japanese before they could get the message to the emperor. The Mongolians then threatened to go to war against the Japanese but again the letter was Lost with the executed diplomat. So the Mongolians tried to invade Giappone who then fought back. The Japanese won because of a large storm (Depicted here) that wiped out the less experienced Mongolian army. No matter how much the Mongols tried, the Japanese always pushed them back, so the Mongols gave up.
My profilo picture is one of a Japanese Samurai taking out a Mongolian swordsman without even using his sword. Samurai FTW XD
All throughout history the Japanese have been winning one war after another, the military strategies that the Japanese developed where far più advanced than the western strategies at the time, war strategies like the Japanese strategies did not appear until about WWI in the early 1900s. War was part of Japanese culture, they where at constant warfare, te where either a Samurai, a foot solderer o a farmer growing riso for the samurai and foot solderers. Giappone had never Lost a war until WWII where they where stopped due to western technology. They won against the USSR during the Meiji era and won, the fought against other Japanese clans almost all of the time until the Edo era when the Tokugawa family united all of the Japanese clans. Japanese martial arts are of the most refined in the world, Japanese weapons are considered da many to be the best bladed weapons ever made.
When WWII ended and Giappone was left in ruins da America and the economy was the worst it has ever been, America helped Giappone get back on it's feet, made it's new government (Based on the British government) and still today claim to help the Japanese. After the loss of the war Giappone had agreed never to start another war, they still have a military but that is like saying Switzerland has a military, it's there for defense purposes but most of it's military power lays in it's allies (Mainly America in this case.) Most of te all know that Giappone was recently hit da an earthquake, the Japanese military is now helping out with earthquake relief.
Any longer and this will have to be made an article.
Any questions?
