Just how much internal division was there in the inner working of the Japanese empire? I heard the army and navy didn't trust each other, but I wasn't sure

Army, Navy and even airforce to a degree were often uncoordinated because they were so rogue and out of control

Different branches of the military have to compete for budget in every nation ever. I'm not convinced that Imperial Japan was any worse than the norm in that regard, people just exaggerate it because "lol dumb japs can't war."

When will males pay reparations to females for the oppression throughout history?
The examples are found in every time throughout history and in every country on earth: foot binding in ancient China, burqa-wearing in modern Saudia Arabia, rape, domestic violence, underaged forced marriages, etc etc etc.
How will they ever be able to afford sufficient payment?

You are granted, a la the Matrix-esque uploading, unparalleled knowledge of some restrained subject over the course of 100 years at any point in history.
Practically speaking, you get the knowledge of the world's foremost authorities on a particular subject in a particular place in time, all in one brain — yours.
>What subject in what era do you choose?
Geopolitics of Europe (in particular the Mediterranean) and their subjects in the New World (particularly the West Indies) from 1625-1725.

Genuine question to those genuinely religious, what makes you think your religion is the right one? If you'd been born elsewhere you're just as likely to be a muslim, sikh, zoroastrian etc

>what makes you think your religion is the right one?
Philosophy and history.
And I wasn't born into a religion unless you think atheism is a religion, I converted when I was 22 after doing research.
You realise that abrahamic and indian/asian religions have coexisted for thousands of years though right?
That line of thinking only has any merit or value when you consider eternal damnation though, not which is the 'right one'.

>>3200512
I have taken refuge in Buddhism after a long period of learning and practising the dharma. I believe that everyone should be exposed to the dharma, but it is not an imperative to 'convert' people belligerently.

Did any of the Pentarchy have iconic headquarters in the same way that Constantinople had the Hagia Sofia?

Why didn't he bother drawing Corsica and Sardinia but he drew the Balearic islands or the islands of Denmark?
>>
>>3200502
Constantinople wasn't made a patriarchal see until the council of Chalcedon in 451. Before Constantine Christianity was illegal so Christians held mass in private houses or underground catacombs and could not build or maintain church buildings(see pic related). After Constantine legalized the church, they began building parish churches and large basillica cathedrals which is where the head bishops would have had their headquarters.
>>
>>3200610
My point is that did they have any large/important church building at Alexandria, Jerusalem or Antiochia?

I'd say no, since the Bible is not a single, cohesive text but a collection of many different works. There are plenty of other texts highly regarded by Jews and early Christians that didn't make it into the Bible, and didn't survive so well.

What is your opinion on the guy and his work? Always have been interested in the histories of the Greeks and Romans and I've found his lectures to be really interesting and even entertaining to listen to.
Also, any other lecturers I should look into?

Universal Basic Income (10k) in exchange for 2 years in a military or paramilitary organization, with civilian options including medical corps, (the pacifist option) deputy sheriff, firefighters, road crews & engineering corps.
A full 4 years is required if you want to qualify for senior benefits after 60 (20k a year) Does this sound acceptable? I only bring it up here because of historical anecdote and the civics bent of the question lends itself more to the humanities than politics.
