1ao1c - a little matter of perspective

Guevara was the very personification of the word "revolutionary". Mussolini? Ok... but I think the only thing good he ever did was make the trains run on time (historical inside joke hehe).

Not to mention his end was really pathetic. I just don't know what you see in that man.

But anyway, that is some seriously interesting stuff you are studying. I always did think that time period ought to be taught in schools, because there honestly are few events quite as significant in modern Asian history as the Meiji Restoration.

Plus all that late Qing stuff. Sounds very good indeed. China's modernisation after the Opium Wars? More like the lack of it. Is the Taiping Rebellion covered?
