		Japan's warlords were quick to master the new weapons and eventually developed tactical use of massed musketry unsurpassed even in Europe.
		Although Japan had launched her campaign to secure the "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere", in which she would free her neighbours from colonization and help them develop like the West, the brutal, racist and exploitative reality of Japanese occupation meant there was no support from these potential Southeast Asian allies.
		Japan's command of its economy had long been sure-footed, but its management of defence issues, constrained by the antiwar constitution and security alliances with the US, was less certain.

		The fact that the wars which Japan has waged with foreign powers have been for her national security rather than for territorial aggrandisement, or at least that national security has been the leading factor in Japan's war policy, is a conclusion which clever students of Oriental affairs are becoming daily more willing to accept.
		A man who has seen and studied Japan's efforts to get a commercial foothold in Eastern Inner Mongolia cannot be blamed if he fails to see wherein the security of the Japanese Empire has necessitated some of the measures which Japan has allowed her officials and her nationals to adopt.
		While Japan has so arranged her railways that they ring 'round her rocky island coasts and are planned with every eye to their strategic value in time of possible warfare, the vital de-fence of Japan rests in her ability to keep open the sea routes which allow her to keep touch with the outside world.

		The precedent of the privatization of the Japan National Railways, carried out in 1987 and involving the freezing and then slow expansion of the former national body’s enormous debt even as all the assets were sold off, was scarcely mentioned in the privatization push.
		The issues of greatest importance to Japan were those not mentioned in the campaign: ecological crisis, diplomatic isolation, chronic indebtedness, population decline and graying, abandonment of the "Japanese" employment system, rising child crime figures, rising suicide figures, and deep social pessimism.

		Jingo is the 20th of Pratchett's Discworld novels, and the fourth to feature the City Guard of Ankh-Morpork.
		The central message of 'Jingo' that racism is bad is a very obvious one, and Pratchett handles it with all the subtlety of a brick, while the plot is basic and uninvolving.
		Pratchett's "Jingo" is among the greatest critiques on the folly of wars - in particular, blatant imperial ones.

	History Of Japan
		Hitherto Japan has played but a small part in this history; her secluded civilization has not contributed very largely to the general shaping of human destinies; she has received much, but she has given little.
		Japan was first brought into contact with Europe in the sixteenth century; in 1542 some Portuguese reached it in a Chinese junk, and in 1549 a Jesuit missionary, Francis Xavier, began his teaching there.
		She lived on in a state of picturesque feudalism enlivened by blood feuds, in which about five percent, of the population, the samurai, or fighting men, with the nobles and their families, tyrannized without restraint over the rest of the population.

		It is possible that a person of European parentage, born in Japan, and accustomed from infancy to use the vernacular, might retain in after-life that instinctive knowledge which could alone enable him to adapt his mental relations to the relations of any Japanese environment.
		Filial piety in Japan does not mean only the duty of children to parents and grandparents: it means still more, the cult of the ancestors, reverential service to the dead, the gratitude of the present to the past, and the conduct of the individual in relation to the entire household.
		To die without offspring was, in the case of a younger son, chiefly a personal misfortune; to die without leaving a male heir, in the case of an elder son and successor, was a crime against the ancestors,—the cult being thereby threatened with extinction.

		Jingoism is a term describing chauvinistic patriotism, especially with regard to a hawkish political stance.

		This patriotic belligerence was intensified by the (apparently accidental) sinking of the Maine in Havana harbor that led to the Spanish-American War.

	Column: 2 September 2002 - Jingo-Jango
		Few things are more dangerous than jingoism, and few countries are likely to be as dangerous as America when enthralled to jingoistic slogans.
		The most obvious and egregious current example of unfortunate slang is the way the terrorist attacks that occurred one year ago this September 11th have been reduced simply to "911." Too many people speak only of "911," refer to "911" as a noun, a discrete object.
		Jingoism is a mid-nineteenth century term that was coined to describe the aggressive nationalism needed to rally the troops, creating a frenzy of emotion in the midst of war and demonizing the enemy; such sloganeering has proven quite effective in corralling national sentiment for questionable causes.

Then there is the mysterious D'reg, 71-hour Ahmed.
