tfw you will never live in feudal Japan
>samurais viewed as top tier - defended the nation
>farmers viewed as high tier - produced the food for nation to live on
>artisans viewed as normal tier - produced other necessary goods such as clothes
>merchants viewed as filth tier - profited from the labor of the more productive peasant and artisan classes.

>implying the theoretical feudal tier system was actually relevant in real life
Merchants were rich af and even wore swords sometimes, while farmers were treated as worms in the dirt

Why would I want to live in some backwoods hellhole full of rape obsessed mongoloids who are centuries behind the rest of the world?
Ancient China, Persia, and India is where it's at.
Its the opposite now kind of. Mainly because machines can do all the jobs but merchants. Being a soldier in modern times doesn't have the skill ceiling that being a samurai did. Guns are easy mode. They do help overthrow governments because even if you are shit at fighting you have a decent chance even against a experienced shooter.

The embryo of western civilization was light years ahead of the far east
Be sick, eat shit, have retarded stick of iron instead of having weapon, wear retarded useless armor, be humiliated when europeans come and your imaginary world of you being super warrior crashes.

Samurai weren't simple foot soldiers, they were noblemen. And they didn't protect the country so much as do infighting between each other, and after the nation was unified they were just low-level feudal lords
there were literally only two times Japan was attacked my foreign countries before WWII and the enemy got wiped out by a typhoon both times

Why were the greeks so advanced and the germans so backward?
>really feels bad man
>>70909377
Because the Ancient Greeks got a lot of their knowledge from the Persians, the Atlanteans and the Egyptians. Also, the situations that Modern Greece and Modern Germany are in are pretty much the opposite now, ironically enough.

how are you enjoying your gaijin power?
>>70909318
Yeah, this is more accurate. Japan has always been isolated from the mainland, so they never had to worry about invasions, so samurai were more like enforcers rather than defenders, making sure the peasants paid their taxes on time and doing the bidding of their lord.
