How did civilizations who had no contact before learn each others language? How did we learn Japanese when we had no way of knowing what the hell they were saying? What was the process like? Did someone just point to random objects and say that this is a rock or a boat? What about the more complicated stuff? I'm so confused.

Basically, you had people in the countries close to it that knew both languages, then people next to them that knew their language and so on.

Indian merchants might know Chinese since they do a lot of trade. There'd be Middle Eastern merchants that knew Indian. And then you'd have Western Merchants that could speak Arabic.

Some Brits washed up on Jp shores before Mr Perry came around, they were set to work teaching Japs engrish.

>>319970
This is a question I've been asking myself ages, and I can only assume that, for example, the first non-Japanese speaker to learn Japanese did so like a child, i.e. slowly, word-by-word and through exposure.

>>319998
I think you're skipping the point of OP's question, as you still don't answer how the first Indian learned Chinese, or how the first Westerner learned Arabic. Anyway, sometimes the new languages are introduced overnight, with no go-between, like Europeans in the New World.

Just read this.

>Ancient Greek city states and many cultures of Precolumbian America: Democracy, people vote in leaders and vote leaders out when the need arises. Issues are handled by debate and discussion.
>The Chinese Empire: The Imperial Bureaucracy. One who understands moral philosophy can enter the Imperial Bureaucracy and serve the state in various functions. Those that do well get promoted to better serve the Empire.
>Medieval Europe: Feudalism. A warlord manages to fight his way to power over an area and gives away lands and villages to his favored men who give their titles to their kids who run the country like a pyramid scheme. Military power lies in knights and forces raised by local lords, knights seek to become lords and lords seek to become kings. Everyone is locked into a hereditary class system. If the King tries to introduce laws or policies the lords don't like because it threatens their positions, they'll rebel. It is by nature oppressive and grossly inefficient. When Europe actually starts to matter on the world stage fuedalism gives way to centralized monarchism.

Feudalism, not even once.

How efficient something is has to do with the execution of it too.

That said Feudalism is the reason we are what we are now and I'm glad we didn't turn out like China.

The Dukes of Burgundy were important players in the war from 1415 to 1436, yes. Once they deserted the English camp for good, a French victory was pretty much inevitable.
