It covers the important figures and events of Japanese and world history, and how one era gave way to the next. It works as revision for students and as a refresher of general knowledge for adults, and it lets you reconnect scattered facts into a single narrative.
What you will learn here
You will pick up the basics about historical figures and events, along with a feel for the broad movement of each era. That background makes the news, travel, television dramas and novels richer, and it builds a habit of thinking about things over long spans of time.
How to approach it
Start with whichever era or region interests you. Learning people and events together, as pairs, makes them far easier to remember. Watch your accuracy rate and revisit the eras you find hard, and the through-line starts to join up.
