      During that time, and especially just a decade after, France and Britain became lesser enemies and began to focus on other potential threats like Russia and Prussia. France and Britain were the two largest colonial empires, and respectively the first and second strongest powers in Europe. Fighting would be futile.

    02:37 The word "Kamikaze" originated from the typhoon that kept Japan safe from Mongolia in 13c. When the grandson of Genghis Khan tried to attack Japan, the typhoon came and keep Mongolia out of Japan. It happened twice. So Japan named that typhoon "divine wind". So I guess Japan thought suicide attacks would keep them safe.

    The Khwarazmian Empire is why we talk today about algorithms. The guy who invented writing mathematical methods down as step-by-step instructions (which he wrote down in a book named "Al-ǧabr wa-ʾl-muqābala", which gave us the word Algebra) came from Khwarazmian Empire and was thus called al-Khwarezmi, which was latinized into Algorism.

But Genghis Khan wasn't angry, he again sent few men but now they got killed all gold got stolen, and Genghis Khan wasn't angry, so he sent to Muhammad II (shah of the Kwaza.... Empire) a letter, it was something like that "I am the ruler of the setting sun, and you are the ruler of the rising sun ... (that's the important part)" and Muhammad II thought like "oh no, this man gonna attack my country!" and Mongols immediately captured the Kwazawazakwakumkhwaza Empire.
