Historie

This is a combo of 3 topics:

Topic 1: The ancient Ninjas in Japan have fueled stories, movies, books and other media to go on and on about the sneaky assassins that terrorized their country. Today, you and I will go in-depth into this topic and find out more about the truth.

Some of the stories sound accurate, others have more to it, or are completely false. In a nutshell, this brief book will cover the following topics and more:

The most important facts about the Japanese ninjas.

Shaolin monks and Japanese pirates.

Feudalism compared with European knights.

The 7 most famous ninjas.

The biggest ninja fight ever in history that took place in 1581.

False concepts about ninjas.

Daimyo lords in Japan.

Ninja training, schools, weapons, and disguises.

Educate yourself and figure out where the stories came from, and then connect the dots. This guide will help you along the way.

Topic 2: What did the samurai in Japan do? How did they begin? And what was so typical or different about them?

These and many other questions will be answered in this quick guide that will cover all the basics of the famous samurai warriors in ancient Japan. You will learn about shoguns, bushido, the Meiji time period, ronin warriors, the Genpei war in 1180, the Kamakura period, the infamous suicide methods for honor (hara-kiri), and much, much more.

Topic 3: The Shinto religion is a mystery to many. There is no real founder, there are many gods and deities that are worshipped, and something about spiritualism and spirits in nature that most people can’t quite put their finger on.

Today, many of those confusions will be cleared up, as you will explore the Shinto faith and all its most important rituals, gods and goddesses, symbolism, etc.
