Taira no Masakado is an interesting person to consider. In 939, He led a rebellion aiming independence or demand for better treatment of Kanto region. As a great-great-grandson of Emperor Kanmu, he claimed himself as Shinnō, new Emperor.
Masakado's rebellion was short-lived, two months after...
I don't think Hideyoshi can pull off the conquest of China. If Nobunaga managed to unite Japan and pour resources for building up a navy, I think he or his heir has a chance depending on China's situation. Unlike Hideyoshi, Nobunaga's position in Japan would be more secure, and Nobunaga can...
Oh, in my mind, 韓 is associated with modern southern Korea, and 朝鮮 is associated with modern northern Korea and united Korea before 1945. So when I read kan, I interpreted as 漢, Han Chinese.:oops:
Anyway, thank you for clarification.
Very interesting update. The rise of regional parties emphasizes how TTL Japan diverted from OTL Japan. I am a bit confused why Heo Jong-suk's party is Kanminzokuto. Was there an update about redefinition of Han race?
Interesting developments as usual. I'm looking forward to what will become of the friction between Michiko and Bảo Long. An international dispute, great love romance, or something else entirely? By the way, it seems that Bảo Long was born on 1936. Did POD hurry up the marriage of his parents...

Nagasaki Harbour Incident occurred in 1808, caused lasting changes in Nabeshima clan, whose responsibility was defending Nagasaki Harbor at the time. Nabeshima Naomasa (鍋島 直正 1815 – 1871) was the 10th and final daimyo of Saga Domain, he made a strong investment in the domain academy, researched...
Don't worry, your Japanese translations in this story are fairly good. :cool:
I'm rather afraid of confusing everyone on this site with my poor English skill. :pensive:
シオニスト is Zionist. ユダヤ人 is Jews.
I am a Japanese, but my first reaction to a word of "Zionist" is like, I don't remember the accurate meaning, but something relates to Jews. So I can't say whether or not シオニスト has negative connotations among Japanese people who are well versed in Jews and Israel...
Upon this interesting update, I found out a similar project, Fugu Plan for the first time, which resulted in failure ultimately when Japan was defeated in OTL. I hope for much more rational Japan and Jew's success.
By the way, I think 杉原のシオニストメモ is more accurate wording. You can omit の when...
