Why does Japan have to copy absolutely everything?

Japan started off copying Chinese culture, including Chinese characters. When they met the Portuguese, Japan copied Portuguese fire arms. Then the Portuguese went out of fashion, and the Dutch rose, so they started copying Dutch sciences.
Then the British and French completely destroyed China, so they went from copying China to copying Britain and France. When they realized the French suck at war, they copied German ideas, including fascism. When they realized the Germans also suck, they copied the new superpower, America. They copied numerous other things along the way that they consider part of their own culture, such as anime and manga, which are based on American cartoons and comics. And Japan would have never left the Middle Ages if it remained isolated from the world.

Is this an inferiority complex? Is Japan the History equivalent of that opportunistic lapdog with no loyalty and who only hangs around the rich dudes with personal interests in mind? Are they just dumb robots who can't see any benefit from innovation?

I'm starting to do some research on capitalism and I thought the best place to start would be here.

As you all know capitalism is great so long as it's controlled - but it's not controlled enough, it's unbalanced in favour of the extremely wealthy. We can see that the market is increasingly brought up by a wealthy few, and at this rate, it's inevitably going to end up so saturated by the elitist class, the common man will find it impossible to start their own business.

What is the world and it's governments doing, if anything, to resolve this issue, and can it be resolved?

What would modern music sound like if Germany had won the second world war?

They considered jazz to be degenerate African-American music and they actively suppressed it within Germany. With jazz verboten throughout the world, it's hard to see how rock and roll and its many offshoots could have appeared.

Perhaps its possible that electronic music would have still come about, but its roots were already laid in the 1920s by Soviet national Léon Theremin, a figure unlikely to gain prominence in a victorious post-war Germany.

In general, I don't believe it's accurate to say that the Nazis hated modern aesthetics in all its forms. In fact they embraced architectural and cinematic forms which were quite progressive for their time. So, how would German music have evolved?

Does this symbol ring a bell with any of you? It's supposed to be some sort of medieval German symbol but I think it's just a piece of junk sold to tourists. Can anyone confirm if this is actually significant?

Was the French Revolution the best thing to happen to France?

Before
>degenerate shithole
>literally broke
>court is full of decadence, orgies while the people starve
>rulers don't give a shit, don't even try to fix the issue
>lost all their colonies

After
>an empire that essentially ruled Europe for a good awhile
>Based Napoleon, restored morals to the French people
>introduced a new nobility that actually cared for its people
>to this day Napoleon and his regime are respected even by their most ardent enemies - Britain and Russia
>even after Napoleon fell, his successor saw unprecedented restoration of French power world-wide

Why is Bourbon France such a fucking embarrassment? Reminder that Bourbon France made it a thing that white surrender flag is associated with the French. kek.

The political history of Japan features a seemingly relentless denigration of rulers to figureheads. Offer an explanation for this trend. What can we conclude about political power from this phenomenon?
