    Professor Paine is absolutely brilliant: you think NATO is expensive? What till you meet WWIII.

    Excellent discussion, My take for what its worth. Japan looked to the history of the British Empire, noting commonalities and achievements. Both were Island Nations primarily Naval powers. Japan hooked their mentorship hitch to the Brits Naval success in their history of expansion.With the witting and/or unwitting assistance of the British, not realizing this only led to certain economic factors in silent arms assistance. Including some loose intelligence, technology give-ways. Under-appreciating the diplomatic alliance complexities involved, especially the trust factors necessary for any tested successful alliance.The Axis was attractive after the League and the Brits cut them off "the 3-=5=5" partial reasoning in walking away..The question for the Japanese was, shall we assist our Axis partners in crushing Russia? Or Rather pick off the low hanging fruit of the former colonies...They chose the latter, forgoing anything the West deemed honorable at the time, not understanding the strength of Honor over willpower. Exactly as Hitler did. Further, overall this time assuming land power is just sea power with overwhelming willpower. They never learned the logistical lessons to support that land power......The lesson to the World? Yes, you can be a Sovereign Island power by maximizing success through Trade relations of trust............... With a proper alliance of trust, and the mutual protection of an honest broker.
    The United States.

      Have you seen the Netflix movie about building the Yamato over an aircraft carrier? (The young math genius does all the work to figure out the costs were way more than they reported them to be)
