Interesting point about the humanities; but first I will file away your idea since history is always better when presented by a good writer (lecturer) that is also a good story teller.Case in point... the history dept. at my school was in school of humanities and fine arts because of a falling out with the poli-sci folks... more of them so history was invited to find another school.
Ladies and Gentlemen, what we have here is a certified American Hater. :-
A new kind of polymath ... (sigh) :'(

....... Bismarck was prescient when he said a general conflict would probably start "over some foolish thing in the Balkans."That may not be an absolute quote, but it is close. My brain aches when I push the memory button.
Close enough; my memory however, is fine, like Twain... what I have trouble remembering I make up. 😮

No, if fact had Wee Willy not fired Bismarck I think things would have worked out differently… a more positive (if unknown) outcome.

Agreed. Interesting though that to stimulate their domestic industry didn't they mandate engine replacement at a certain mileage or age regardless of condition? how about the restriction of sale, on the domestic market, certain higher hp motorcycles… for export only. Curious. ???
The major factor, according to a reliable source of mine, is that the Japanese corps. were given gov't support to cover losses incurred in the American market. That probably isn't the case anymore but it's how Fuji film got started in the US many years ago. Not exactly fair or free trade.
