Bill Wurtz's fast, comedic and musical run through the whole history of Japan in nine minutes.
HN mentions it as an entertaining quick history, and as a stylistic reference or joke in threads about history and the creator's other videos.

> and to slow the predatory opening of Japan that had begun with American warships’ arrival in 1854. Reminds me of: ▶ this video
There is an option for enforcement you're not realizing here, called the Commodore Mathew Perry method, it goes like this. --Location: Tax Havens-- > Knock Knock Its the United States With huge boats, with guns, gunboats. >Open your banks' records, stop having them be closed and theres not much they can do about. So they sign a treaty making sure their banks' records are not closed. -------------------------------------------------------------- Inspired by this, both historically and in delivery ▶ this video
Those jingles are funny the first few times, but they get annoying pretty fast. Anyway, happy to see this linked here. He also did a similar video for the history of Japan [0], quite entertaining. [0] ▶ this video
The only reason i know these countries have a history is from watching this video a couple day back( ▶ this video ). It is strange but i never really thought of Russia as neighbours with China or Korea with a shared history.
Not mechanical, so much lower resolution... but you might have recently seen the History of Japan video being linked around... the guy who did that, Bill Wurtz also did this: link There's an entire subreddit of this stuff as I guess it's really good practice for playing by ear: link It includes this awesome Palin one: link P.S. In case you missed it this is the History of Japan one again: ▶ this video If you watch it again, you can hear him using that technique of harmonizing with his own spoken voice in the background music of that video.
