Yasuke even served as weapons barer to Oda Nobunaga (A prominent Daimyo of the Sengoku Period). That's quite a significant achievement; even moreso considering that, apparently, he was the only non-Japanese individual in Nobunagas service.

A couple of notes about Cinco de Mayo.
1. It's not something celebrated by all Latinos/as/xs, since it's specifically related to Mexican history. 2. Heck, it's not something celebrated by Mexicans. At least, not as fervently as it is celebrated in the US. 3. The main thing is that May 5th commemorates the Battle of the Mexican Army... (edited) read more

When he was a child, his mother held him by the groin and dipped him in the river Styx, as to make him invincible in battle. However, just like Achilles, he had a weak spot.

The sky can change whenever it wants, from being hot to suddenly cloudy and rainy, let alone the human heart which is very difficult to predict.

What was the moment that made you love history?
For me it was when I was in a class with my favorite professor. It was a class entirely about "The Wealth of Nations" and all we did was read and then debate the meaning of the book. It really gave me a very intense love for everything economics post-enlightenment. There is nothing more that I... read more
