By the same logic, you would be the same as well then. If allowed to attack free willy-nilly, it would drag, though, after all, we are 7 billion. You may never know as to how many will be left that agree with you.


Ask for another Toba from nature and it would solve your problem.

Is there a formal term for when someone believes something wrong, but the more proof that's shown against them, the more they believe it? Like how Candide's Pangloss twists every indication that his best of all possible worlds idea is nonsense into more proof that it's true.

Cognitive dissonance.

Atheists/evolutionists are a prime example. No matter how debunked their theory is, they still believe in it.

Plenty of kingdoms in pre-colonial Africa. It was the normal form of government apart from a few tribal bumfucks like the Twa and Khoisan and some quasi-democracies like the Tswana.

Imagine this situation

you have two reasonably armored samurai, both are stuck with their katanas, so no polearms or clubs, how do they proceed to take each other down? knights had half swording, but I doubt you can do anything of the sort with a katana, do you just go for an opening in the armor?

Exchange sword blows until you can get a hold of them and use jujutsu to take them down and finish them. Much in the same way knights had a wrestling system for taking down other knights.

>Jujutsu first began during the Sengoku period of the Muromachi period combining various Japanesemartial artswhich were used on the battlefield for close combat in situations where weapons were ineffective. In contrast to the neighbouring nations ofChinaandOkinawawhose martial arts were centered aroundstrikingtechniques,Japanesehand-to-hand combat forms focused heavily uponthrowing, immobilizing,joint locksandchokingas striking techniques were ineffective towards someone wearing armor on the battlefield. The original forms of jujutsu such asTakenouchi-ryūalso extensively taught parrying and counterattacking long weapons such as swords or spears via a dagger or other small weapon.

>In the early 17th century during theEdo period, jujutsu would continue to evolve due to the strict laws which were imposed by theTokugawa shogunateto reduce war as influenced by the Chinese social philosophy ofNeo-Confucianismwhich was obtained duringHideyoshi's invasions of Koreaand spread throughout Japan via scholars such asFujiwara Seika.[5]During this new ideology weapons and armor became unused decorative items, so hand-to-hand combat flourished as a form of self-defense and new techniques were created to adapt to the changing situation of unarmored opponents.

I have no idea about Japanese swordplay but I'd imagine they'd go for typical weak spots like the neck or beneath the arm

Plus katanas are pretty heavy as far as swords go so even if your strike hits the opponent's armor it might knock them around a bit

How exaggerated are accounts of antiquity and medieval army sizes?

Accounts often have battles ranging in the realm of thousands if not tens of thousands of men on both sides, but was it really possible?

Even in the modern day, logistics for having thousands of people in battle is overwhelming, how in fuck did they manage things like supply lines, toiletry, hygiene, command, fresh water etc etc etc for tens of thousands of people?

Hell when you get to the middle east and Asia, number sizes go from the tens of thousands to the hundreds of thousands, but how was any of that possible?

Isn't it more likely battles probably consisted of maybe like a few hundred people, then it was exaggerated the fuck out of?

NOT REALLY.

What reason have you to believe that troop counts were exaggerated?
>>
>>2427998

Ceasar describes battles involving hundreds of thousands as well. Considering Romans were big fans of counting things, I'm sure the figures are relatively accurate.
