Why do some people think that Japan’s history is significant and important ? Japan for the most part of its existence was an isolated and poor country , what it did had no impact on the world .

It's just weebs.
Anybody that focus in history that matters would care about Europe, MENA, India, the Asian steppe and China and surroundings, in no particular order.

do you want it again?

Weebs

ever felt that China, even though they have been humiliated and weakened many times throughout history will always rule over you eventually?

>China and surroundings
>and surroundings
So, Japan?

This

Because Japan did end up becoming an influential country? They've modernized their country, defeated Russia, played a part in WW1, conquered a large part of East Asia, were one of the main belligerents in WW2, and experienced one of the most impressive economic booms in the post-war era. Japan's history is considered important because this is what led it to these results.

these

jap*n is insignificant except for being a two time nuke target

>wrote on modern japan for my undergrad dissertation
>asked questions by weebs about anime and manga
I don't know anything about those things

Yes, Japan, but with the same interest you would study Korea or Vietnam, not like it was anything important.

What's a Luxembourg?

Just because THAT some people love Japan, I guess.

Damn

lmao

>Why do some people think that Japan’s history is significant and important ?
l really don't think even average weebs see post-meiji Japan as influential on the world stage, all l can come up with is only the Iwami Silver Mine(a bit downgraded Potosi or Cerro Rico)
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iwami_Ginzan_Silver_Mine

>post-meiji Japan
pre-meiji

i dont care for japan but samurai armour is cool and chonmage hairstyle is also cool
would sport a chonmage if i was japanese

I kinda agree with you but Japan was the first non-white country that tied to be like whites or larp as whites and somehow succeeded
so I'd say Japan's history after the 17th century is kinda important

True, just learn about Meiji Restoration onwards that really matters.

Even their first Emperor is a myth.

Simply We made history by producing Haruhi and Lacky star then our name will remain until 1000years later at least

a shithole of rich people

I like the part where japanese defended themselves against the mongol horde, and when a black guy was considered a noble traveling with Oda Nobunaga

did you know Nobu couldn't win against Yasuke's BBC?

*tried

the mighty BBC was kang even in feudal japan, oda stood no chance

What’s about China so important?
99% of invention that modern people are using are all made by White and few were found by Japanese(Vitamin, serum, Anntena, LED, Nihonium, food seasonings)

love Nobu
hate Mitsuhide
simple as

OP didnt mention china lol

china invented pasta, gunpowder and probably the earliest form of paper, and they probably have the earliest form of printing ever documented

I didn’t mention China tho ...

mitsuhide was a cunt, he probably started the rumour that japenese guys have small peepee

>invented pasta
nah, pasta and chinese noodles were created separately

yeah, I wrote noodles first but then I re-wrote it

>poor

Retard.

If anything, China and other east asian countries make Japan's history important because the world have to deal with them

>t. João Yamamoto

Maybe Japan didn't have much impact on the world for most of its history, but in the recent history their impact was very large, so they're considered as such. Similar with the USA, their history is much shorter than that of other countries, that doesn't mean they haven't been (and aren't) extremely relevant.

Because of anime

Right before and during ww2 seem like the only part of Japanese history that has foreign relevancy.

neither important nor significant in entire history, just it is in todays state

China have a large trade route throughout their dynasty era and relatively wasn't that poor (since they always have huge population).

did you (roughly) study the entire history? whats your fav part?

you absolutely missed my point

I think sengoku jidai is the one I know most of, but even then is pretty small. this is my favourite part, even though is not during sengoku jidai:
>en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mongol_invasions_of_Japan

after all, what's important is “why the west failed to control it?” so there's a little bit longer story

Well you weakened china before the west entered. So it was still weak.

But this is Yasuke history is really true?
The place I read about it said that there was proof that 3 Frenchman and one dutchman had became samurai and the myth that a 5th gaijin samurai existed and was a black slave that was brought to Teriyaki land by the Poortuguese, but there was no real proof of the existence of the Kuro Samurai.
Besides that the Poortoguese great navigations and theconquest of the east contemporaneous to Oda and Japan unification?

maybe it's kinda my fault but it seems it's hard to discuss here

yeah Sengokujidai is pretty interesting, it's said Japanese relative apathy can partly derive fiom Ishiyama War and fire attack of Hieizan, which are Nobu's deeds. interesting
>mongol
yeah this is also interesting too, 2bh they weren't really "Mongolian", as lots of stragglers of Goryeo and Southern Song comprised the members of Yuan.

there's this Dutch samurai
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jan_Joosten_van_Lodensteijn
but he just took some bushi title and he wasn't a warrior to begin with (he arrived in Japan after 1600, the endgame of Sengokujidai:Sekigahara)
>French samurai
l don't know, maybe Jules Brunet?
>there was no real proof of the existence of the Kuro Samurai.
l think he's not mythical, there are several documents mentioning this BLACK SAMURAI, he was said to be at the Coup of Honnouji

Do you think Japan is important

yes, but even then, I like these clashes of different civilizations

>Japanese relative apathy
to religions in general
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ishiyama_Hongan-ji_War
besides these wars he also surpassed several religious autonomies like Siege of Nagashima
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sieges_of_Nagashima
therefore he was commie

Because weebs

yes, he was a slave brought by the portuguese empire, and oda had an interest in him because of how exotic he was, that's it

>Why do some people think that Japan’s history is significant and important ?
It's the only none Western "Western" country, it essentially implemented similar policies to the west and ended up in a similar place as a highly industrialized nation.

imagine if there's no japan, it could be so fucking simple
just white vs others, mostly

I don't know if I could live without japanese influence, like pic related

Japan is shit
/thread

That's the same for Korea and Taiwan

both were colonies of japan

please dont forget about us

I took a Korean history course last year and it was extremely boring.

I made an article about the Japanese economic miracle and Lost Decade
That article became famous and appeared in the German magazine

AMA

No, Japan was implementing Western style policies, when the countries still were Japanese backyards.

question, why did you do 9/11??

They did it before it was cool, also beat an european Power in modern times at their own game before it was cool.

>Jules Brunet
I have no idea, the place just said there was Frenchman that was considered samurai, but I read that a long time ago on my weeb days.

> l think he's not mythical, there are several documents mentioning this BLACK SAMURAI, he was said to be at the Coup of Honnouji

> yes, he was a slave brought by the portuguese empire, and oda had an interest in him because of how exotic he was, that's it

But he was still a slave or was a free man? And was the negated to marry or was he the first weeb incel? Cause black genes have more chance to express than the others are all recessive when compared to black genes, so there would be some photo or anything like that from there descendants or something like that to give some backup to this history, cause that was the argumentation that the site used that the mention of a black samurai as very vague.
Maybe I'm overthinking it, idk, but it is a cool history.

>why did you do 9/11
Cuz Allah and CIA made me do it
Allahu AKbar

Koreans think so too

move back to taiwan

I go there every summer so currently I am not planning on it

are you cute?

Some people say I am cute but I think I am uggo

come to singapore. i will determine that for you.

Is the movie The Treacherous any true?

When I finished it I thought... "Damn Koreans were Cucked since the very begining".

>But he was still a slave or was a free man
he was a "present" from a Portuguese missionary to Nobu iirc.
>so there would be some photo or anything like that from there descendants or something like that to give some backup to this history
the BLACK WARRIOR was single because he devoted his BBC to Dairokutenmaoh, Nobu. too bad we can't see his superior descendants. and here's one of documents, Nobunaga Kouki
>The Lord Nobunaga Chronicle (信長公記 Shinchō Kōki) corroborates Fróis' account and describes their meeting thus: "On the 23rd of the 2nd month [March 23, 1581], a black page (黒坊主 kuro-bōzu) came from the Christian countries. The man was healthy with a good demeanour and Nobunaga praised Yasuke's strength. Nobunaga's nephew gave him a sum of money at this first meeting.[15]
imagine having BBC as your cocubine

>One of the oldest civilization
>Home of lots of influential documents and literature
>Influences can be found in every east and south-east asian countries, made up large portion of human population

Yes He was the most mad monarch in the Joseon Dynasty and entered into the most mad monarch's TOP5 in Korean history

He gathered 2,000 beautiful women from all over Korea and enjoyed the harem.
ofc that crazy king did a lot of crazy things, so there are a lot of dramas and movies about him in the modern age

t. Joseph Gunawan Wijaya Gong Chek

based

he worked with nobunaga for a few years, but nobunaga had to commit sepuku, and then yasuke fled to nobu's son, who also had to commit sepuku, and mitsuhide called him a monkey and sent him away, yasuke returned to his portuguese masters and his story stops there, we don't know what happened to him, which tribe he came from or if he ever had children, or even if he died in japan.

why does this board always talk about japan when there are barely any actual japanese posters

Nobu... l wonder how he'd make face every time Yasuke's BBC impaled his Azuchi Momoyama Castle...

ken-sama you need to be put down

but Yasuke's BBC...

>UHHH.... CHINK!

Samurai, nuke and anime. All of japan history in there words.
Also everyone not braindead knows samurais were overrated hollywood shit.
Anime is mostly shit and for losers

Well, than I think the history is reasonable.

Damn, idk much about Korean history, but seems that the Korean history is kinda sad.

Chinese are nordics

varg? is that you?

It's just weebs and some idiots spouting the "Japan is exotic" meme, who fail to see that Japan is just China lite but well kept.
