Explaining Japanese Civilization  
Podcast: "WhatifAlthist" | World History, Philosophy, Culture

Description: These civilization videos require INTENSE research—I've read six books just for this one! Unlike geopolitics videos where I can fit new info into existing frameworks, each civilization demands I reach a threshold of intuitive understanding. I know these aren't my most popular uploads, but they're my passion projects. My standard: I must be able to explain a civilization's essence in one sentence or after six drinks.
