>Japanese blacksmiths are unable to replicate European weapons and ask the Portuguese for help>African blacksmiths learned to replicate European weapons simply by looking at themThat's brutal.
Bump.
It's pretty interesting how "they wuz stone-age" came to be a common slander despite metal-working and *almost* mettalurgy itself being the only areas in which SSA was advanced.

>>18627549Moreso than the Japanese, at least. Their only brief glory at sea was during the Pacific War in the 20th century. And even this was short-lived. For a long time the Japanese actually had an almost superstitious fear of sea travel. On land, they were pretty formidable. Or at least enough of a threat that Korea was hopelessly overmatched. At sea, the Japanese barely better than helpless.
