i was interested in why some of these people fought. Because like every army during this period, the's a lot of conscripts. But there are also super patriots who have thought deeply about what they're doing and why. And i was interested in the similarities between the university and high school professors in germany in the first world war and in japan before the second. If you want to sort of have unquestioning loyalty in the state when the state is a living god, ah, you can just ratch it that way up to 11 off into super patriot land.
Japan's rising sun goes supernova and engulfs a huge area of Asia and the Pacific. A war without mercy begins to develop infusing the whole conflict with a savage vibe.
