There are countries which I feel like should have more cultural influence but dont for some reason
>>18412592They all have the cultural influence you'd expect them to have
>china tuned vidya market towards mobaslop for a decade now>russiathe lolcow of Europe, the ass really is in the ass this time, everyone understands everything>indiainstalling slopware on sour pc RIGHT NOW>iranwill be the first country to be nuked in anger since ww2, plenty of potential there
>>18412592Define "cultural influence" and what you perceive it as.Chinese influence on Japan, Korea, Vietnam etc. is so pervasive that it's like a gold fish not seeing the water bowl it lives in. Chinese shit is to East Asia what Greek and Latin is to Europe, essentially.
>>18412885>the ass really is in the asslmao I still remember this phrase from the early 2022 war days and I'm still trying to figure out what the fuck it means.Like I speak 3 languages and I still can't conceive of any expression this bizarre
>>18412901Modern influencelike how american media is world wide (marvel, hollywood, videogames)or how everyone watches Japanese anime and video gamesI guess you can put in Korean Kpop tooYou mentioned Greece but they dont seem to have any modern influence :(
>>18412592The trinity of regional permaban candidates
>>18412906>You mentioned Greece but they dont seem to have any modern influenceI'd argue the influence of classical Greece is so fundamental to the modern society it's impossible to not mention them.Athens: The birthplace of western philosophy and the inventors of the most efficient way to run an empire, a method still used today by the USSparta: Inventors of the rule of law, the foundational principle of every modern stateMacedonia: Set the foundations for the eventual Hellenization of the worldAlso, Justinian is indisputably the west's greatest lawgiver, though whether the Byzantine empire was a Greek state or not is still debated to this day.
Iran is the only country among those whose cultural influence is limited as a result of sanctions, embargoes and contemporary geopolitics.There's a lot of ignorance about Persianate history and culture in general. The average Muslim has no clue either and has been brainwashed by way too many sides.
>>18412961I think the Shaw himself said he wanted to be the Japan of the Middle East, I find that interesting
>>18412993Japan was respected and viewed as a role model across the non-European world for its prestige as being the first non-European industrial great power capable of even beating Europeans. Even Chinese nationalists actually admired Japan before the 1937 war began.
>>18413007>>18412993Japan and Iran aren't really alike in any regard. Nonetheless, I get that it's more of an economic analogy.Persian was the lingua-franca of Abrahamic faithfuls of Central Asia and of learned Muslims in South Asia and East Asia. Persianate influence extended into Anatolia and the Balkans by way of the Seljuks, Ottomans and the successors of the Golden Horde.Languages in these regions and behind are full of Persian loanwords, and Muslim plebs are completely oblivious to all that history. Then there's the Salafists whose entire ideology revolves around spreading lies and distortions. So we've seen Arabs getting a lot of credit for shit they clearly don't deserve much or any credit for. Pakistan is another movement created by grifters.
>>18413012Not to mention Iranian and Persianate architecture, customs, clothing, cuisine, etc.>Languages in these regions and behind* beyond
>>18413007>Japan was respected and viewed as a role model across the non-European world for its prestige as being the first non-European industrial great power capable of even beating Europeans. Japan humiliating lost every war with China and Europeans like Portugal before the Meiji restoration.Japanese massively outnumbered Chinese at Baekgang and Noryang and Portuguese at Fukuda Bay but the Japanese were slaughtered Meanwhile Ming China defeated the Portuguese and Dutch East India Company in every war. At Veniaga in 1521, Tamão in 1522, Pescadores in 1622-1624, Liaoluo bay in 1633, Taiwan in 1661-1662.Meiji Japan mass exported teenage Japanese girls as young as 13 as karayuki-san prostitutes across the world in order to raise money to modernise so that US and UK could build their navy and militarily.Jewish banker Jacob Schiff saved Japan from collapse during their war against RussiaOutnumbered Russians slaughtered the Japanese in the land part of the war at Nanshan and land battle of Port Arthur Japan used the British built Meiji navy to win the naval part of the war and needed the British, Jews and Americans to help themThe Jew Jacob Schiff founded the American Jewish Committee and lobbied US president Theodore Roosevelt to support Japan and sign Taft-Katsuura agreement with Japan in 1905 to let Japan annex Korea later.>Even Chinese nationalists actually admired Japan before the 1937 war began.Sun Yatsen had two teenage Japanese 13 year old girls as concubines.Dai Jitao, Chen Yi, Jiang Baili, Guo Moruo all had Japanese wivesSu Manshu and Zheng Pingru were born to Chinese fathers and Japanese mothers.Almost every Chinese student, merchant and exile in Meiji Japan had Japanese concubines and maids.Chinese men with teenage Japanese concubines admired Japan in the same way old white men in Cebu admire Philippines.
>>18413007Cambodia beat Spain and the Dutch while Japan was getting humiliated by the Portuguese.
>>18413031>Meanwhile Ming China defeated the Portuguese and Dutch East India Company in every war.They never fought a war against either, unless you count very brief naval skirmishes in which they outnumbered a merchant vessel about 100:1
>>18413031Hi, chink rapeschizo.
>>18413037I wouldn't call losing a few naval skirmishes a humiliation, especially when the Japanese managed to kick the Portuguese out of the country successfully.
>>18412592China destroyed their cultureRussian culture is slavic culture, it's kinda shared among eastern europeans.Indian culture is kinda already known but tied almost entirely into hindhuismIran is a muslim theocracy so they discourage celebrating persian or zoroastrian culture
>>18413058They were fully armed warships retard, the Portuguese used their "merchant vessels" to conquer lands across the Persian Gulf, Yemen, India and Southeast AsiaDutch East India Company had its own army and navy and they ruled all of Indonesia as well as South Africa.The Chinese outnumbered the Portuguese and Dutch at the same ratio everyone else, including the Japanese outnumbered the Portuguese and Dutch.The Portuguese and Dutch curpstomped Japan and every other major power with the same ratio EXCePT Ming China.China fought multiple battles against Portuguese for decades at Tamão, Veniaga, Dongshan peninsula, Liampo and won them all.Chinese fought an entire decades long war against the Dutch East India Company from 1622-1680s and conquered Taiwan from their control.Chinese agents killed the Dutch company agent in Cambodia in front of the Cambodian king.>>18413095The Japanese begged the Dutch for help agaisnt the Portuguese and the Catholic shimabara rebelsThey didn't kick the Portuguese military out, they expelled and banned Catholic priestsThe Japanese let Dutch company merchants stay in Dejima and supplied them with young teenage Japanese girls for centuries.
>>18413102Japan destroyed its entire traditional culture in the Meiji restoration, smashing and destroying old temples, castles, shrines and replacing them with concrete copies decades later for western touristshttps://desuarchive.org/his/thread/18363211/#18366376https://desuarchive.org/his/thread/18363211/#18366362>>18366376 >>18366362Parliamentary elections and political parties aren't party of traditional Japanese culture.

>>18413102>>18413104England also violently destroyed its cultural heritage in the Protestant reformation and dissolution of the monasteries. Most old Anglo Saxon books were destroyed.France destroyed its entire traditional culture in the French revolution, smashing and destroying art, architecture, old genealogical records of cagotsNapoleon then exported the mass destruction to Spain and Portugal, destroying entire cityscapes of architecture, art, mass killing and raping Iberians and exporting anti-clericalism that led the Spanish and Portuguese to dissolve their monasteries like the English did in later liberal revolutions.
Oh no no it's happening again
>>18413104Nah, Shinto survived, there's a massive difference between the cultural revolution and the meiji resto.>>18413106I think you're considering massively different quantities of culture. The catholic culture of england was mostly just a copy of the papacy, it's available in other places.The cagots themselves destroyed their records and, given there is no obvious subset of french people, likely were not genealogically different from the rest of france.
>>18413113Retard, read the actual articles in the linked threads, the Japanese destroyed 80,000 traditional Shinto shrines in shrine consolidation policy and 20,000 Buddhist temples in shinbutsu bunri and 2,000 traditional castles, aa well as violently abolishing caste status for samurai and peasants and burakumin in the on the blood tax riots.Japan then invented the new State Shinto religion patterned after Protestant stat churches, building new shrines like the shrines of the Kenmu restoration for political purposes (comparing it to Meiji restoration) and entirely changes the "gods" worshipped at mtiple Shinto shrinesJapan then changed the definition of Shintoism, saying Shinto is NOT a religion so Japanese Catholics can worship the Meiji emperor.Japan changed its entire burial and food habits, switching to cremation and started eating beef which they didn't before and stopped eating dog and cat meat which they used to eat constantly like Koreans and Vietnamese.
>>18413113 >Shinto survivedIn fact, it was enforced during the Meiji Restoration. It's the Buddhist tradition, which had been a part of Japanese culture for centuries and had become integrated with Shinto, that got fucked
>>18413113>the cultural revolutionThis lasted 10 yearsLitetally this was a fragment of people's lifespan.So a carpenter or tailor who was born in 1900, and learned traditional skills in 1920s, then lived through the Cultural Revolution in 1966-1976, then started teaching apprentices again after it was over 1976, and live to 100, dying in 2000, would successfully transmit a living tradition.It's literally person to person living transmission from a person who lived before it to people who lived after it.A Daoist priest born in 1900 and ordain and transmits teachings to initiates after 1976, is literally still living traditionalYou retards realise you would need a two generation spanning event (at least 100 years) to sever transmission?

Shrines with long histories were transformed from celebrating local heroes, legends, or natural spirits to celebrating whatever had propaganda value to the state. So the shrine that paid respect to a powerful tree for a hundred years would suddenly be paying respect to a war hero with no connection to the original shrine.>Finally, in 1906, the Imperial government announced it would only provide funds for one shrine per village3. That one shrine usually reflected state interests.>You might think Shinto would have experienced a revered or elevated status during this time, but instead, it was blighted and under siege. During the Meiji era's most aggressive wartime expansion, 80,000 local shrines disappeared4, consolidated into those that followed state guidelines. (For some perspective, that's the total number of Shinto Shrines in Japan today.)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shrine_Consolidation_Policy

In April, Japan launched the Zhejiang campaign. In this campaign, Ishii and company carried out massive biological weapons attacks. Cholera bacteria was the main pathogen employed, and the attacks resulted in more than 10,000 casualties. It has also been reported that some victims contracted dysentery and the plague. More than 1700 soldiers died, mostly from cholera. This would have been considered a great success for the Ishii group, but for the fact that all of the victims were Japanese soldiers.>A Japanese medic captured by American forces at the end of 1944 described the casualties among the Japanese army during his interrogation: “When Japanese troops overran an area in which a [biological weapons] attack had been made during the Chekiang [Zhejiang] campaign in 1942, casualties upward from 10,000 resulted within a very brief period of time. Diseases were particularly cholera, but also dysentery and pest [bubonic plague]. Victims were usually rushed to hospitals in rear. … Statistics which POW saw at Water Supply and Purification Dept Hq at Nanking showed more than 1,700 dead, chiefly from cholera; POW believes that actual deaths were considerably higher, ‘it being a common practice to pare down unpleasant figures.’” [3]

The money for the experiments came from the American 406th Division, part of the occupation forces... A number of Japanese doctors associated with Unit 731 were signed up as advisers....""To test treatments for scrub typhus, the team instructed researchers to infect patients in a mental hospital in Niigata." Between 1953-1956, 118 patients were infected. Nine died, "another committed suicide rather than continue as a human guinea pig.""An investigation by the Tokyo Justice Ministry concluded that no permission from relatives had been obtained for the experiments, and there was no question of the tests being a form of treatment to 'cure' the patients, as the hospital claimed."Finally, I want to give credit to British researchers, Peter Williams and David Wallace. Their 1989 book, "Unit 731: The Japanese Army's Secret of Secrets," referenced the Observer article. The US printing of the book deleted the chapter the reference was in, so make sure you use the British edition by Hodder & Stoughton if you want to follow up this reference.

A tube was inserted into their anuses to determine how the sugar was processed by their digestive systems. Many of the infants experienced diarrhea and anal bleeding.

Early defensive structures date back to early 14th century by Utsunomiya Toyofusa.

Shibata Castle (Shibata City, Niigata, )>In 1872, when the Meiji Government ordered the castle to be dismantled, it had 11 yagura and five gates. Of those 16 main structures, only one gate and one yagura remain today. The majority of the ninomaru (the outer citadel) and the honmaru baileys are now occupied by the a Self Defense Forces base. Because of that, you cannot enter the three-story yagura pictured above. The closest that you can get is where this picture was taken, just across the moat.>The castle was reconstructed in 2004.

Only over time and in whispers, did one of my aunt’s share the story. She and her sisters, she said, had each suffered either rape or some other sexual abuse at the hands of troops that history recorded as their liberators and allies.So when I began to reconstruct the atmosphere of Berlin in 1961, having chosen to illustrate it through vignettes of individuals throughout the book, I thought long about whether to include Marta Hiller’s own story of rape. Though the details were sensational, the story was sadly routine.According to estimates extracted from hospital records, between 90,000 and 130,000 Berlin women had been raped during the last days of the war and the first days of Soviet rule – a soldiers’ expression of frustration and rage after a war in which some 20 million Soviets had died. Tens of thousands of others had fallen victim elsewhere in the Soviet zone. Hiller’s had expected her anonymously written book, “A Woman in Berlin,” to be welcomed after its publication in 1959 by a people who might want the world to know that they, too, had been the victims of war. Instead, Berliners responded either with hostility or silence.
>>18413259>>18413286>>18413307The world felt little sympathy for any pain inflicted on a German people who had brought the world so much suffering. And Berlin women, who had lived through the humiliation, had no desire to recall it. Berlin men found it too painful to be reminded of their failure to protect their wives and daughters. Hiller’s writing was too graphic for easy digestion:>Suddenly his finger is on my mouth, stinking of horse and tobacco. I open my eyes. A stranger’s hands expertly pulling apart my jaws. Eye to eye. Then with great deliberation he drops a gob of gathered spit into my mouth.>I’m numb. Not with disgust, only cold. My spine is frozen: icy, dizzy shivers around the back of my head. I feel myself gliding and falling, down, down through the pillows and the floorboards. So that’s what it means to sink into the ground.Hillers would die at age ninety in 2001, never knowing that that her book would be republished and become a best-seller in several languages, including German, in 2003. It would be made into a major German movie in 2008, becoming a favorite of feminists everywhere.Perhaps nothing could better capture the German attitude of 1961 toward their occupiers than Hillers’s book and Berliners’ aversion to reading it. The East German relationship to their Soviet military occupiers, who still numbered 400,000 to 500,000 by 1961, was a mixture of pity and dread, complacency and amnesia. Most East Germans had grown resigned to their seemingly permanent cohabitation.Among the minority who hadn’t, many were fleeing as refugees.Fred Kempe is president and CEO of the Atlantic Council.

>>18413259During the rule of Almanzor's Amirí regime, the already-rich Al-Andalus slave market reached unprecedented proportions. For example, the Moorish chronicles mention that after destroying Barcelona in July 985, Almanzor brought seventy thousand chained Christians to the great market of Córdoba[317] and, after destroying Simancas in July 983, he captured seventeen thousand women[374] and imprisoned ten thousand nobles.[483] Obviously, these figures must be carefully evaluated, but likewise given the enormity this type of trade reached during his tenure, Almanzor is described as "the slave importer".[317] The commoners of Córdoba even asked his successor to stop the trade since, to get a good husband for their daughters they had to raise the dowries to exorbitant levels because the young Christian slaves were so numerous and cheap that many men preferred to buy them instead of marrying Muslims.[484]>>18413286Hun and Iranic Alan Y-DNA in Europe from Attila the Hun and his Alan allies raping Germanics and Spain.https://www.researchgate.net/publication/383891196_The_Huns_in_Scandinavia_A_new_approach_centered_around_modern_DNAhttps://demokrata.hu/world/descendants-of-the-huns-are-living-in-todays-sweden-exclusive-interview-899486/https://www.academia.edu/87950565/The_Huns_in_Scandinavia_A_new_approach_centered_around_modern_DNAhttps://www.academia.edu/126712215/The_Huns_and_their_allies_in_Scandinaviahttps://discover.familytreedna.com/y-dna/R-S15948/storyhttps://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-019-53105-5
>>18413259>>18413286>>18413310Almanzor's campaigns were a continuation of a policy from emirate times: the capture of numerous contingents of Christian slaves, the famous esclavos or francos, in Arabic Saqtïliba or Saqáliba (plural of Siqlabi, "slave").[477] These were the most lucrative part of the loot, and constituted an excellent method of paying the troops, so much so that many campaigns were little more than slave raids.[478] From these came many eunuchs who were essential elements for handling harems; others were purchased already castrated in Verdun and disembarked in Pechina or Almería according to Liutprand of Cremona.[479] However, the most valuable take was the beautiful girls, selected according to "the predilection they had for the blonde and redhead Galicians, Basques and Franks,"[480] usually also described as having blue eyes, large breasts, wide hips, thick legs and perfect teeth[481] that "the gynaecea of the royal families and the aristocracy supplied as concubines and legitimate wives."[479] As in the case of the eunuchs, some slaves were bought from pirates attacking the Mediterranean coast, others came from Slavic or Germanic populations passing through several hands from Vikings, and there were also blacks imported from Sudan.[482] Most of these slaves, however, were children who would be Islamized and assigned to work at court, including the work of eunuchs.[479] Jews and, to a lesser extent, Muslims were involved in this lucrative trade, thanks to their ability as interpreters and ambassadors.[479]
