Its crazy how much ancient history the Japanese put into the Zelda games. The Tri force is an ancient symbol i had no idea.

Who here’s been watching Shogun?

This was such a treat. It’s surprisingly hard to find good and informational content about ancient Japan, so seeing this in my recommendations was a very welcome surprise!

I thoroughly enjoy watching your 'Entire History of...' videos, finding them incredibly fascinating and engaging. The format you employ is easy to follow, maintaining a great pace throughout. Your voice is well-suited for this type of content. While I understand that you'll probably never see my comment , I would personally love to see future installments exploring the captivating histories of Rome or Ireland. Both of these places have long intrigued me, and I believe your insightful approach would make for an exceptional exploration of their stories.

This documentary is breathtaking, fascinating to the end and produced to the highest quality. Also the narration is flawlessly read.

The title of "barbarian nation" was given by default by the Chinese to all other nations. Every nation outside of China had a specific "barbarian" term to be referred to that varied according to the location, hence, the Japanese belonged to the category of "eastern barbarians" ("dong-yi" 東夷).

Just really love your works on YT. Love your accent and your voice guiding us through the attractive history story. Can you make more videos about Chinese history from different dynasties? And your updates on YT have been a bit slow, can you churn out more videos it’s because I cannot get enough of you voice telling historic stories.😊 love the great work you have done, keep it up bro!

This piece was incredibly put together, as always. Thank you for creating it!

I think I just learned more about ancient Japan from this one video than I did during an entire semester class in far East studies.
And plenty of reminders.
Thanks for posting!

As a history enthusiast, I'm thoroughly impressed. This video covers so much ground and does so in a way that's both comprehensive and enjoyable. A must-watch for anyone interested in the history of Japan.

Damn, I resisted the temptation to spend my Sunday afternoon playing video games, in favour of reading a book I'm supposed to return to the library soon. But then Kings and Generals uploaded a video about Circassians and now you dropped this fascinating and awesome documentary. I guess that's a nice problem to have.

Btw, Hojo Tokimune is from the Hojo clan not the Tokimune house. Unlike western names, Korean and Japanese surnames are said first and then their personal name afterwards. You honor your clan and family before yourself, so his formal name is Hojo Tokimune, but when referring to Tokimune himself or if a casual friend calls his name you say Tokimune. Takeda Shingen's son was still named Takeda Katsuyori.

Informative, interesting and the narrator didn’t put me to sleep! Thanks for the great video! Japan has always been an interesting culture to me so to find a this kinda format video that gives a good amount of knowledge is refreshing.

Thank you, You're the most underrated channel on Youtube. The documentaries you've produced are better than anything available in mainstream media. Especially like the Japanese documentaries.

17:02 If you ask 100 Japanese people about what we call "Shinto", 99 of them will probably argue that it is not a "religion" but a "belief system" or simply "culture".

Excellent, spellbinding documentary. So well written and narrated, with top notch visuals too. Five plus stars.

Apparently there's no actual archeological evidence of servants being buried with Himiko. The idea that there were came from Chinese documents that saw the burial mounds that looked just like the ones used in China where they did do this so they probably assumed it was the same. But archeologists who have searched the ones in Japan have found no evidence of this being done in Japan. However, Himiko's mound has never been found so it's possible that it was done just this once since she was so important, or the Chinese documents just made an assumption. This is what I learned in university anyway.
