What is better ninja-to or samurai katana?
First off I would like to educate you a little on your question the "ninja-to" is an American term if you want to sound like you know what your saying then you should use the legitemit term "shinobigatana" also for the users of said weapons arent called "ninja" the Proper term is "shinobi" I've been training in ninjutsu and kendo for 7 years now and as I keep telling new students " fear not the weapon, but the hand that weilds it." this meaning it depends on the characteristics you are looking for in a sword so, it's up to you to find the answer for yourself.
== == * No, because it's a the same person, but an individual with multiple personalities. In Canada the law is so crazy regarding such things that it's difficult to see where the law actually protects the victim and a possible suicidal person is a victim in most cases. Here, if someone threatens to jump off a bridge (most do it just because no one is listening to how much they hurt and can't afford the help) and they are saved by police/firemen then they can be charged! Rarely does it stick and the person ends up where they really want to be for help ... in the psychiatric ward of a hospital. In most cases the person isn't crazy at all, but needs help and unfortunately, in the U.S. and Canada that's getting scarcer as the years roll by. * No because they are "personalities" they are treated like royalty. If someone with multiple everyday riffraff threatens to kill himself, call in the S.W.A.T. team, 13 helicopters flying overhead...but someone with multiple personalities and suddenly you've got doctors and family standing next to benign police officers all pleading with the "personalities" to put the weapon down and come outside so they can be "helped". They say we're all equal under the law, but they say it to keep those of us with multiple everyday riffraff at bay. * No, but the person is obviously insane and I feel sorry for them. * Yes, because for example the body has 5 people sharing it, like Eric, Adam, Sam, Nick and George, so Eric is the one that wants to kill himself, but then the other four are against it and when it happens to be Eric's time to be in control of the body, and he threatens to kill himself, the other guys wouldn't like it so much and would be hold against their will. It's just that they have to share the same body but they are completely different from each other. It's the opposite from a group of people that follow another person and do everything the other person does and they have different bodies but just one personality, like lemmings. It's kind of the opposite from that. * Yes, because they are not 'personalities', they are 'people', who are self-aware. If they are not self-aware, and really were just fragments, you might not have a hostage situation since it would all be in the mind of one person. But in multiple systems, where many diverse, self-aware people share one body, then any action taken by one that could seriously harm the body or the welfare of the group is a serious matter, in addition to it being quite tragic for the person involved. If Sall threatens to blow herself up, and doing so will also kill Jane and Tom who cannot get away, it is a hostage situation. Everyone within a multiple system has a conciousness - 'I think therefore I am' equating them the rights of any othre human being, including the right to life. However the unique nature of a multiple means that everyone within the system must share one body. 'Love your neighbor as yourself' takes on its truest meaning, for any harm to each other will likely harm yourself.

How do I install larger wheels on samurai?
Well the only size you can run are 235/75 on a 15 in stock rim I have BFGoodrich A/T KO had to trim the bumper bracket only because it got hit in the front but the other front doesn't rub...if you want 30's you'd have to cut of the ends to the bumber bracket behind the bumber but then you lose your bumber and turn signals. You do lose articulation when you go up in size with out a lift kit though.
Why did the Samurai disapproved of the musket?
The Samurai disapproved of the musket because it devalued samurai training.
Why did the samurai cease to exist?
The movie "The Last Samurai" (2003, starring Tom Cruise) showed that the Samurai ceased to exist after the death of Katsumoto (played by Ken Watanabe). However, this was merely based on actual Japanese historical events which goes as follows (excerpt from the "Samurai" article in Wikipedia.org): Decline during the Meiji Restoration= Emperor Meiji abolished the samurai's right to be the only armed force in favor of a more modern, western-style, conscripted army in 1873. Samurai became Shizoku who retained some of their salaries, but the right to wear a katana in public was eventually abolished along with the right to execute commoners who paid them disrespect. The samurai finally came to an end after hundreds of years of enjoyment of their status, their powers, and their ability to shape the government of Japan. However, the rule of the state by the military class was not yet over. In defining how a modern Japan should be, members of the Meiji government decided to follow the footsteps of United Kingdom and Germany, basing the country on the concept of "noblesse oblige" (impolying that with wealth, power and prestige come social responsibilities). Samurai were not to be a political force under the new order. With the Meiji reforms in the late 19th century, the samurai class was abolished and a western-style national army was established. The Imperial Japanese Armies were conscripted, but many samurai volunteered to be soldiers and many advanced to be trained as officers. Much of the Imperial Army officer class was of samurai origin and they were highly motivated, disciplined and exceptionally trained. The last samurai conflict was arguably in 1877, during the Satsuma Rebellion in the Battle of Shiroyama. This conflict had its genesis in the previous uprising to defeat the Tokugawa Shogunate, leading to the Meiji Restoration. The newly formed government instituted radical changes, aimed at reducing the power of the feudal domains, including Satsuma, and the dissolution of samurai status. This led to the ultimately premature uprising, led by Saigō Takamori. Samurai were many of the early exchange students, not directly because they were samurai, but because many samurai were literate and well-educated scholars. Some of these exchange students started private schools for higher educations, while many samurai took pens instead of guns and became reporters and writers, setting up newspaper companies, and others entered governmental service. Only the name Shizoku existed after that. After Japan lost the World War II, the name Shizoku disappeared under the law on January 1, 1948.
How long did the samurai last?
The clan armies of bushi (warriors) existed as early as the 9th century. These were the original samurai, a term that would become popularized later. The Samurai would become an established social class known as thebuke prior the end of the 12th century when the first of the shogunate would rise following the Genpei War.
The samurai arguably never really ended. In the 1880s, the Meiji government was put into place by the efforts of samurai and they would be important both in the professional military and the administration as both warriors and scholars. However, with the disillusion of the clan fief system and several other feudal structures, the samurai lost most of their social position. It could be said that the era of the samurai ended with the failure of Saigo Takamori in the Satsuma rebellion of 1877. Likewise, the end of the samurai as a class was arguably when the government stipend that had taken the place of the fief system was commuted by the Imperial government in 1876, effectively ending their position as a social class. However, some of the samurai such as the daimyo retained their elite positions with the creation of the peerage system or kazkou. This would remain until it was abolished by the Allied Occupation Force and arguably all forms of socially constructed hierarchy or discrimination, with the exception of those considered part of the Imperial family by the Imperial Household Law of 1947, are illegal according to Article 14 of the Japanese Constitution of 1947.

He put the national government on his farm and created Washington D.C. He put it next to Georgetown University which his brother founded and near a lot of property he owned. Our forefathers were driven by money rather than patriotism. So I would say that he was in favor of a strong national government because it would make him money. After he and George Washington left office, they got in cahoots together with a scheme to link the east with the west with a "Potomac Canal". Another way for him and the "father of our country" to get rich quick.
Samurai originated in the land of Edo (Tokyo) Japan in the 12th century.
