Sarah paine imperial japan

I was watching this talk where she explains how imperial jaoan rose up and fought the Russians and Chinese in the meji period. And One thing I thought was particularly intresting is that after the russia-Japanese war of 1904 which japan won it became considered a great power snd every country in asia and europe was suddenly intrestd im this new power. I thought it presented an intresting contrast with the battle of adwa which was in 1896 only 8 years earlier. Which even though it was significant for pan-africanism and Ethiopia. It didn't result in a real change in how western countries dealt with Ethiopia

Ama make this comment just so i can say "told you so" in the future. Anyways, i really get a bad vibe from this woman. Kinda like jordan peterson and neil degress tyson.

A real scholar shouldn't speak this way. What you say should not be entertaining, it should be dry and informative. Well explained, but still dry. If she is not an outright fraud, i think she likes to significantly simplify things to the point they border on fiction?

Idk, just a vibe i get from her. Got the same type of vibe from peterson even before he fell off.

This lady has been a professor at the naval war college for 25 years. You can find videos of her giving guest lectures at universities or conferences from like 10+ years ago.

Tyson also has a phd in physics saxib. I think peterson was also a psysch prof for a long time. Being smart doesn't make you less susceptible to this. In fact, it might contribute to it (they think since they're so knowledgeable about one topic, this also implies they are an expert in a completely unrelated area).

i get what you mean but disagree with your point, learning should be fun and captivates the audience however youre totally right she reads like a conservative puppet

Ethiopian perceptions didnt change much for 2 reasons reason 1 being that the russian empire was still a formidable foe to defeat in a war so by beating them japan gains notoriety as a new rising power. However italy was always pretty irrelevant even when muesolini came and influenced hitler they were maskiin country. They peaked 1900 years ago

Reason 2 is because japanese were white and ethiopians were black
