How did the invasions of Japan by Mongols from Korea (1274—1281) affect Japan? The idea of a warrior caste and warrior code entered Japanese culture. Japan became more dependent on China to fight off the Mongol attacks. In response to the Mongol threats, Japanese lords achieved greater unity. To meet the danger, Japanese lords gave military training to peasants.

omg thanks so much

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

No, the Samurai existed before that. They invented the katana at that time, but the samurai were already there.

OpenStudy (broskishelleh):

Well yes but they existed until those attacks, and the code has changed, hasn't it

OpenStudy (broskishelleh):

No, the samurai code was the same. Many started following zen paths, but that was not a change in the samurai code. There is another answer that looks better.

OpenStudy (broskishelleh):

But like said, they had Zen Buddhism from China so wouldn't they have changed?

OpenStudy (broskishelleh):

Let me pull that up @brianadieudonne

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks

OpenStudy (broskishelleh):

You are welcome @brianadieudonne

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

They still had a warrior caste before this. The shougunite system is thousands of years old.

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Before that invasion, who were the samurai fighing? If you think about that, it should help.

OpenStudy (broskishelleh):

@e.mccormick you are right but what was the answer

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Well, before the Mongols, nobody had invaded Japan from the outside with a large military force. So who were the samurai fighting before?

OpenStudy (tanya123):

The early Samurai emphasized fighting with the bow and arrow.

OpenStudy (tanya123):

sorry, I was joking

OpenStudy (broskishelleh):

@tanya123 JOKING!!!!!

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Hehe. Well, they used a thinner blade. This is what I get for having studied Japanese bladesmithing and the language. Some odd facts. But think about it. If there were no people from outside Japan to fight, and the samurai were the only fighers, who did they fight before?

OpenStudy (broskishelleh):

Themselves

OpenStudy (broskishelleh):

........

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

EXACTLY. So, if all the samurai are suddenly fighting mongols, what do you think it did?

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Of those 4.

OpenStudy (broskishelleh):

Well @e.mccormick they stopped fighting each other and worked together so C

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Yah, I think that is best. Dunno about D. I would look in a book for D, but C looks really good to me.

OpenStudy (broskishelleh):

How did the Reconquista affect Spanish national identity between the 1060s and 1492? It increased Spanish wealth and national pride through successful wars with England. It launched a period of exploration of other lands, increasing Spain's world power. It transformed Spain from a nation of three major religions into a nation of one religion. It absorbed Muslim and Jewish cultural influences to create a truly multi-ethnic nation.
