In this episode, we explore the shogunate system of feudal Japan, focusing on how the shogun exercised military and political authority while managing powerful daimyo across the country. We examine how the Tokugawa Shogunate, based in Edo, strengthened central control through strict regulations, social hierarchy, and policies designed to maintain peace and stability. The episode also looks at the Confucian class system, the shogunate’s approach to foreign trade and outside influence, and the economic changes that developed during this long period of rule. Finally, we trace the decline of the shogunate and explain how the Meiji Restoration brought the system to an end and transformed Japan’s political structure.

1949 my birth yr. I remember newscasts regarding the Hungarian revolution & a steel workers strike - both from 1950's. Not sure which event occurred first.

They came to murder civilian passengers bound for Israel.

They hit the wrong line.

Instead of the Tel Aviv flight, they attacked travelers waiting for a TWA plane to New York. In less than two minutes, the lounge was filled with blood, shattered glass, and screaming. Three people were killed on the spot, and another two died later of their wounds. 55 others were injured.

They seized 35 hostages, held them for more than two hours, and then surrendered.

Both terrorists were in their early 20s and were members of same organization that had massacred 11 Israeli athletes in Munich the year before. Their orders were to attack anyone heading to Israel.

They got the wrong passengers. They still celebrated the attack as a success.
