The 47 Ronin Attacked Kira’s Mansion on this day, January 30, 1703
On the night of Tuesday January 30, 1703, (14th day of the 12th month by the old Japanese calendar, and the date by which the event is still remembered in Japan) the men of Ako stormed the mansion of Kira Yoshinaka, killing the 62-year-old Chief of Protocol. Having cut off the man’s head, they carried it about 14 km through the streets of Edo to the grave of their former master, Lord Asano, at the Sengaku-ji, a temple in the southern districts of Edo. Then having paid their respects before the grave, they turned themselves in to the authorities.
The story began in 1701, when the Lord of Ako, Asano Nagamori, attacked the Chief of Protocol, Lord Kira within the grounds of Edo Castle, for which he was ordered to commit seppuku. Asano’s lands at Ako (now part of Hyogo Prefecture) were confiscated, and his over 300 samurai were forced to disband. 47 of those samurai re-grouped 2 years later to extract revenge on Lord Kira, taking his head. Incidentally, none of the men who would become members of the loyal 47 were in Edo at the time of the incident that led to Lord Asanao's death, they were all in Ako, far from the incident.
Much of what is “known” about the incident is based on re-worked stories written for Bunraku puppet and kabuki plays 50 years after the actual event, and many of the inaccuracies and much of the re-worked story has become considered "fact". The truth of the matter has been buried under the popular story.
Lord Kira was not the villain he is often portrayed as, in fact, he was considered a wise and able ruler of his domain, and a highly trusted vassal of the shogun. He often acted as an envoy to the Imperial Court in Kyoto on direct behalf of the shogun. Even to this day, Kira is seen as a hero by the people of Kira-cho in Aichi Prefecture. The stories of Lord Kira having baited Lord Asano with insults and having expected bribes are unfounded. It would not have reflected well on Lord Kira had the ceremonies Lord Asano was expected to participate in, not gone to plan. A man of Lord Kira’s statue would not have expected bribes, as doing his proper duty was considered paramount. Kira’s given name was not really Yoshinaka, but Yoshihisa.
The men of Ako took vengeance on Lord Kira without really knowing the reason for Asano’s death. As mentioned, none of them were present at the time of Asano's original attack, nor were they present for his subsequent seppuku. Asano was known to have been a mentally unstable individual, prone to fits of anger. It has been recorded that he had killed a few of his own retainers over trivial matters. In fact, at the time of Asano's initial attack on Lord Kira, the two had had words within the halls of Edo Castle, but had parted. Asano had returned to his quarters in a rage, and then once again left his quarters seeking Lord Kira. It was not a spur of the moment attack.
Unlike the popular story, there was no snowfall on night of the attack. On the site of Kira's mansion in Tokyo, where the Ronin attacked, is a small shrine dedicated to those who were killed in the incident.
Despite the popular story and the truth being similar in some ways, different in other details, it is still a story of courage, and an ode to the way of the samurai.
Gilgamesh
In the history of humanity, there are numerous stories and legends, one of which tells of the existence of prehistoric giants, such as the "gods" known as the Anunnaki in the Sumerian civilization.
According to ancient records, the Anunnaki were an advanced extraterrestrial species that came to Earth in search of gold. Over time, they mixed with humans, giving birth to an offspring known as Gilgamesh. Today, archaeologists have discovered the enormous tomb of King Gilgamesh, said to contain advanced technologies that were seemingly beyond the capabilities of that era.
THE MYSTERIOUS MAP OF PIRI REIS
In 1929, a map drawn in 1513 by an Ottoman cartographer was discovered in Istanbul. His analysis has been hotly debated because it shows what appears to be the American and Antarctic coasts before they were explored.
Theologian Gustav Adolf Deissman made this startling discovery while inspecting the library of the Topkapi Palace in Istanbul, which the Turkish government had commissioned him to classify.
Among the dusty shelves he found two fragments of a map from the beginning of the 16th century, drawn on gazelle skin, which presented a strange anomaly: to the west of the Iberian Peninsula and Africa, large portions of coast can be distinguished that seemed to correspond to the America and Africa. Antarctica and that they should not have been there, since they were not known in Europe then.
The author of the manna was Ahmad Mubiddin Piri, better known as Piri Reis, an Ottoman sailor and cartographer who lived between 1465 and 1553. In his own words, he had drawn it from another map - now lost - obtained from a prisoner Castilian who had accompanied Christopher Columbus on his travels, and had supplemented it with information from the "ancient kings of the sea". »
About a third of the surviving map shows the western coasts of Europe, north Africa, and the coast of Brazil. Several Atlantic islands are shown, including the Azores and the Canaries, as well as the mythical island of Antillia and perhaps Japan.
The most puzzling aspect of the Piri Reis map is the depiction of Antarctica. The map not only shows a land mass near today's Antarctica, but shows the topography of Antarctica unmasked by ice and in detail.

A long time ago, in the animal kingdom, a sheep was passing by and saw a lion crying in a cage. The lion begged the sheep to save him, promising not to kill him or eat him, but the sheep refused. The lion begged the sheep to save him, promising not to kill him or eat him, but the sheep refused. After much persuasion, the sheep opened the cage for the lion.
The lion was very hungry, as he had been in the cage for days without eating. He quickly grabbed the sheep to kill it and eat it, but the sheep reminded him of his promise. They were still arguing when other animals passed by and tried to find out what had happened. The lion and the sheep each told their side of the story, but out of fear and to win the lion's favor, all the animals sided with the lion, except the turtle who claimed not to understand the whole scenario. .
The turtle then asks the lion to show him where he was before the sheep saved him. He asks him again: "Were you inside or outside when the sheep came? The lion says he was inside. The turtle says again: "ok, come in, let's see if it's hard inside." The lion came in and the turtle locked him inside again.
Stunned, the other animals asked the turtle "why" and she replied "if we allow him to eat the sheep today, he will still be hungry tomorrow and we don't know who will be the next among us to be eaten tomorrow."
The moral of this story.
Do not support evil today because it does not affect you directly, tomorrow it may be your turn.

In the meantime, Kievan Rus' underwent succession struggles and was dismembered. Only the city of Novgorod escaped destruction, continuing the Scandinavian dynastic line (that of the Ruriks, which takes its name from the forefather Heinrich, certainly not a Slavic name) until the death of the son of Ivan the Terrible in 1598.
The social chaos that followed the Tatar-Mongol invasion in the Kiev area was resolved only when the Lithuanians conquered the city of Kiev, incorporating it into their large state, which in turn later merged into the Polish-Lithuanian Grand Duchy which dominated the region until 1795. The Kiev area, therefore, is not only not the cradle of the "Russian" state in the modern meaning of the term but has had, compared to the other Russian principalities, a destiny of its own. The Kiev Scandinavian elite, after the Mongol invasions, was replaced by the Polish-Lithuanian one, while Slavic people returned to populate the region. The eastern border of the Polish-Lithuanian state ran, roughly, on what had been the border of Kievan Rus'. Within that border the local Slavic people were able to develop a culture distinct from the Russian one. They were called Ruthenians, Russians, Little Russians, and are the ancestors of today's Ukrainians.
When the Russian principalities drove out the Tatar-Mongols in the 15th century, what arose was a Russia different from the previous one. The Mongol rule, which lasted two centuries, had a certain influence on Russian culture and mentality, thus marking a departure from the Slavic-Viking Russia of the early Middle Ages. However, the Eastern Slavs retained the name "Russians" which in the past was attributed to the Scandinavians. Today the largest Slavic people, the Russians, bear the name that their ancestors gave to their Scandinavian rulers. And the first kingdom of these rulers, that of Kiev, was not an eminently Slavic kingdom.
Kievan Rus' is certainly the first "Russian" state, but of that Russia which had not yet experienced the Tatar-Mongol invasions which would have significantly changed its culture and mentality. A "Slavo-Norman" Russia that has gone into ruin which is certainly linked to modern Russia - the one that arose in the 15th century from the driving force of the principality of Muscovy - but which is not its direct progenitor. All things considered, Kievan Rus is to today's Russians what the Roman Empire is to Italians. And like the Roman Empire, Kievan Rus' also had multiple filiations: modern Ukraine is an indirect heir but largely distinct from its cousin Russia.
The legacy of Kievan Rus is great precisely because it is not directly connected to modern nation states. Its kings were responsible for the conversion to Christianity in the Greek-Byzantine form (which we call "orthodox") and the formation of a specific culture of the Eastern Slavs.

The intricate details of the ax are still visible. The small iron ax is richly decorated with designs in silver, niello and gold foil - one side has an intricate pattern of tendrils, which may be a depiction of the Christian tree of life or the world ash tree Yggdrasil from Norse mythology, l 'another a speckled-bodied bird - a phoenix or Gullingambi, the rooster perched atop Yggdrasil. The top of the ax shows a human face with round eyes and a spiral beard.
The ax head has a 10cm long blunt edge.
The rich decorations assume that it was most likely a ceremonial or prestige weapon rather than a simple battle or throwing axe.
The ax was found in a grave in Mammen, Denmark. Chronological studies propose the date of the tomb around 970.

The babylonian card of the world (VIe siècle avant JC), also common under the name of Imago Mundi, is the oldest "card of the world" on clay tablet written in akkadian.
She was discovered in Sippar, south of Iraq, 100 km north of Babylon, on the east bank of the Euphrates.
These clay cards present a worldwide representation of the era, centered on Babylon.
It is considered as one of the most common premiere cards in the world.
This card shows the Babylonian perspective of the land and the sky through the eyes of the Babylonian eux-mêmes, placing the town of Babylon in the center of the card. As other civilizations did with Athens or Jerusalem, Babylon was placed in the center because it was the center of the life of thousands of people here and alive. There is the second perspective that comes without the use of modern technologies such as satellites, card creation tools and long-distance transport. Your point of view and your ideas about the world here you can see through this small tablet, also incomplete soit-elle.
Author of the town of Babylon on the map you will find seven villas and seven islands, entourées of two circles here representing the plans of many located near Babylon at the time. The cunéiform writing at the top of the tablet indicates that placement; The parameters of the water on the card are labeled as a sea salt and a river of love.

However, some ethnologists explained it in the 19th century as a sign of the alleged Indo-German race. Since the cross represents the ideology, rule of violence and crimes of National Socialism, political use has been banned in Germany, Austria and other states since 1945. In Germany, crosses under Article 86 (3) STGB can be indicated only for "citizen education" and other similar purposes.

- SLAVIA: Kievan Rus', a Viking state -
Kievan Rus' is the first Russian state, founded - according to ancient chronicles - around the middle of the 9th century. It extended over part of current Ukrainian, Belarusian and Russian territory, and had Kiev as its capital. From the shattering of that state, which occurred four hundred years later due to the Tatar-Mongol invasions, new principalities were formed from which, in the 15th century, that of Moscow emerged. Kievan Rus' would therefore be the "cradle" of modern Russia, and this is how nationalists of every era have described it, however omitting an important detail. As everyone knows, the Russians are a Slavic people, but the term "rus" did not indicate the Slavs.
Rus' was the term with which the Slavs who lived in the plains of present-day Russia, along the Volga, Dnieper and Dniester, called the Scandinavian populations, those that we call Vikings or Normans and that the Byzantines called Varangians. The term "rus" however does not belong to the Slavic language, it is a term that derives from Balto-Finnish. Yes, since between the Vikings and the Slavs of the plains there were the lands of the Balto-Finns, and the Slavs - not knowing what to call those people - borrowed the name from their neighbors. It is no coincidence that even today, in Finnish, Sweden is called "Ruotsi".
The first to notice it was a Danish linguist, Vilhelm Thomsen, in 1876: “Rus is the name assigned to Sweden by all the peoples of the Baltic: in Finnish Sweden is called Ruotsi, in Estonian Rôts, in Livonian Ruotsi, and Rôtsi among the Votes [ancient Baltic people]. Not only must the name correspond to the Slavic Rus' but there is also no doubt that it originates from the Finnish name". Francis Conte, a Slavist from the Sorbonne in Paris, explains the etymology of the term "Ruotsi": it derives from the ancient Norse "rôdhr", then "rods-menn", or "the men who row". And truly those Scandinavians were expert navigators and with their light ships (dreki) they traveled the rivers of the great plain, raiding but also trading and, above all, founding cities. Among these Novgorod and Kiev, important centers of the state that were being built, and which took the name "Rus" from them.
No surprise. We know that the populations of the early Middle Ages were composed of groups of various ethnic origins, united during long migrations, and who recognized themselves as a single gens when they shared cultural characteristics that had changed in the meantime both in the group of origin and in the group of origin. At the head of a gens there was a political leadership that Reinhard Wenksus, a German anthropologist, calls a "core of tradition": a core of socially eminent individuals of leaders, warriors and sometimes priests capable of presenting themselves as an axis of aggregation and holders of the characteristics of a changing and adaptable ethnic identity. Kievan Rus' was nothing other than this: a Viking elite leading a predominantly Slavic population but which was also made up of steppe populations, as narrated in the Tale of Bygone Times, written in 1116 by the historian of Kievan Rus' , Nestor of Pecherska. The idea that originally the Russian state was not so "Russian" has always been rejected by Soviet and Russian historians and scholars because it prevents any nationalistic arguments and claims on the territories of present-day Ukraine.
To be fair, it should be underlined that the eminently Scandinavian phase of Kievan Rus' was only the first but, although Slavicized in customs, the Kievan aristocracy (the boyars) remained predominantly of Norman origin throughout the early Middle Ages and beyond. In the 12th century, Kievan Rus was a wealthy Norman-Slavic state and Kiev is believed to have been the largest city in Europe at the time, with around ten thousand inhabitants. After the Tatar-Mongol invasions nothing remained of its ancient grandeur. The entire principality of Kiev was hit by a series of invasions that destroyed its social and political fabric.

Zu denjenigen, die das Video Daisy's Destruction erwarben und veröffentlichten, gehörte einer der größten Verbreiter von Material über sexuellen Kindesmissbrauch, Scullys australischer Landsmann Matthew David Graham, besser bekannt unter seinem Online-Pseudonym Lux.
Graham, der als „König des Hurtcores“ sowie als „einer der größten Kinderpornografie- und Hurtcore-Vertreiber der Welt" bekannt wurde, wurde im Alter von 22 Jahren verhaftet und betrieb eine Reihe von "hurtcore"-Seiten zum sexuellen Missbrauch von Kindern, darunter „Hurt2theCore“, die als "die berüchtigtste Hurtcore-Site im gesamten Dark-Web" gilt.
(Hurtcore, eine Zusammensetzung aus den Wörtern "hardcore" und "hurt", ist eine Bezeichnung für eine besonders extreme Form der Kinderpornografie, die in der Regel entwürdigende Gewalt, Körperverletzung und Mord im Zusammenhang mit sexuellem Kindesmissbrauch beinhaltet)
Graham behauptete, er habe das Video "im Namen der Freiheit" auf seiner eigenen Website veröffentlicht.
Jahre später, im Jahr 2021, erlangte das Video Daisy's Destruction erneut traurige Berühmtheit, nachdem es im Besitz von Josh Duggar, einem amerikanischen verurteilten Sexualstraftäter und ehemaligen Reality-TV-Star. gefunden wurde.
Scully sah sich insgesamt 75 Anklagen gegenüber und wurde laut dem deutschen Nachrichtensender n-tv beschuldigt, 75 Kinder sexuell missbraucht zu haben.
Er wurde zusammen mit anderen angeklagt, die bei der Herstellung seiner Pornografie geholfen hatten, darunter vier Männer: Der Deutsche Christian Rouche, die Filipinos Alexander Lao und Althea Chia sowie der Brasilianer Haniel Caetano de Oliveira.
Margaret Akullo, die damalige Projektkoordinatorin des Büros der Vereinten Nationen für Drogen- und Verbrechensbekämpfung und Expertin für die Untersuchung von Kindesmissbrauch, beschrieb den Fall als "entsetzlich" und als den schlimmsten, von dem sie je gehört hatte.
Seine Verbrechen wurden als so schwerwiegend angesehen, dass einige Staatsanwälte die Wiedereinführung der Todesstrafe als Strafe für Scully befürworteten, obwohl diese auf den Philippinen seit 2006 abgeschafft ist.
In einem Interview mit Tara Brown in 60 Minutes im März 2015 sagte Scully, dass er im Gefängnis ein Tagebuch schreiben würde, in dem er über seine Beweggründe für die Vergewaltigung kleiner Kinder nachdenken würde.
Im Oktober 2015 wurde die Asservatenkammer, in der Scullys Computerprotokolle und Videos aufbewahrt wurden, durch ein Feuer schwer beschädigt, wodurch wichtige Beweismittel vernichtet wurden.
Es gibt die Vermutung, dass Scully einen örtlichen Polizeibeamten bestochen haben könnte, um das Feuer zu legen.
Am 13. Juni 2018 wurden Scully und seine Freundin zu lebenslanger Haft verurteilt.
Im November 2022 wurde er ein zweites Mal zu 129 Jahren Gefängnis verurteilt.
