Hello, /his/torians.
I am a traveler.
How can we defeat US Navy and establish Greater Asia Prosperity Sphere?

Don't directly attack the Dutch. Fund nationalist rebellion instead. Meanwhile, make Japan a haven for American businesses which are distraught from FDR's new deal policies.
By not going directly to war with the Dutch, you prevent the US from entering the war based on treaties. By having American businesses in your country, you can influence where lobby money goes. Therefore, when FDR thinks he can just plunge the US into war, he'll receive negative feedback and won't have the industrial means to start his war.

What is it like? Dunno if I should get an anthropology major.
Does anyone have experience specifically in Japan anthropology?
What can you learn from anthropology that you can't from just visiting the place and being attentive and interested?
(Ftr, also getting a STEM degree so I'll [probably] have a job.)
>>1336562
It's interesting, but there is some science behind it. The STEM degree saves you anon, good thinking.
I do not have experience in Jap culture, but I do in their history. It gives a slight basis, but no expertise.
Anthropology is just what you wrote: "being attentive and interested". It goes further than that too. From my time at University, I gathered that anthropologists often times must remain invisible in order to gain a true insight on the locals.
Kind of like how you act differently at home when there are guests around. At the same time, they need to be involved in the day-to-day life to learn the local language better - books do you only so well, make connections with people, gather notes on the locals, etc.
Going to a place just being attentive and interested are what tourists do really... well, most tourists just drop the attentive part.
An anthropologist has to take it a step further than that in a way I am not qualified or intelligent enough to properly speak on it.
Try visiting your Uni's anthropology professors. They can give you great answers. If you are interested in Japan overall, maybe verse yourself in some of their history.
Remember: a peoples' history and language carry culture, not the other way around.
What the fuck is going on in that picture?

How close to nuclear war was the world during the Cold War really? Is it just a meme that everyone was frightened daily and that bombers were ready to deploy nuclear weapons at any given time?
There were very, very tense moments, but for the most part it was just paranoia.
>>1336251
Biggest non-answer I've seen, that could fall anywhere from "yes" to "no"
There were multiple periods where a war could easily have broken out.
The two biggest being the Berlin Blockade and the Cuban Missile Crisis.
But yeah, the US was ready to drop bombs on a few minutes notice for most of the Cold War.
Was Lu Bu really a hero and a badass or was he just a meme?
>>1336226
Historical records do indicate he had exceptional physical strength, skill with horse and bow, had notable achievements as a warrior fighting Zhang Yan and the Black Mountain bandits, and had such reputation that Yuan Shao's men were too afraid to approach him when sent to attack him.
But the video game version most of you westerners know is obviously just a meme.
listening to this now thanks

What did the native people of the British Isles look like before becoming Anglo-Saxons?
Are there any paintings or writings about the people? I've never heard much about them so any information you have is appreciated.
>>1336120
They were black.

is this correct?
All that Latin seems off...
>>1335902
If it's just counting words, then you have all the legal and scientific words from latin that literally have their own dictionaries there's so many.
>>1335902
English is basically:
>Germanic grammar system
>Latin/French Vocab and expressions
>he doesn't recognize all the latin prefixes and suffixes
How was the economy of the UK after world war 2 and before the eu?
I don't know but I know there's something important about coal mines, steel manufacturing and party politics involved.

What, if anything, does /his/ think of René Girard?
I think we can all agree he's the greatest thinker of our time in anthropology, psychology, and historical philosophy.

Yeah, that's pretty much what I expected.

did the US library of congress really think this map was a good idea?
>>1334950
>Look at map
>Assume colours are based on allegiances
>Read Wiki article
>Each colour is its own country
Haha, who thought this shit was a good idea?
>All of North America one country
That's... Feasible, I guess. Most Canadians wouldn't be too happy about that, though.
>All of Western Europe one country
Eh, it's happened before with past empires, so it's not too far out of the question.
>British Commonwealth
Australia would freak out and use guerilla warfare to become independent.
>Union of African Republics
HAHAHAHAHA YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS. This must have invented the trope of alt-history maps having Africa bunched together.
Ameritards not wanting their heads getting hurt by an all too diverse geography where you have to remember that devious states like usbekistan exist?
How did a shieldwall actually look like ?
Pic unrelated btw.
like a wall of overlapping shields
>>1334829
So no fancy roof like formation above each shield ?
How would they withstand arrows then ?
>>1334837
You don't have to point your shield forward all the time. You can point it up too if that's what's needed.
