No. Despite popular perception of their activities more samurai were no better or worse soldier than any one else. They just died is a formal manner by their code, which actually is fairly recent , 1400s. Marines don't really have an ethos, or codified warrior system like the Samurai and the Spartans. And I don't want them to, I don't want a politically indoctrinated fighting force in the United States.

no, not so much. samurais where noble men given land to enforce the local rulers will, kind of like a private protection firm. marines are an amphibious assault branch of the navy. the Spartans where a culture of elite land owners which would most closely resemble modern day right wing land owning conservatives. their "warrior culture" really came from the fact that many were trained in combat from an early age. however, Spartans were not the baddest on the block. they lost some pitched battles to the Athenian Greeks during the Peloponisian wars, and were thoroughly routed by the thebians at the battle of luctrea.by the time of Alexander the great, they wouldn't even come out of the Peloponnese to fight.
while all three are known as elite fighting units, they all very greatly in priority and discipline.
i suggest peter greens peloponisian wars or greco Persian wars for some excellent narrative on what Sparta was really about.

between the coolest factors of maximum of those different inscriptions is they're able to be ckecked with different writings. In Ezra interior the Bible there is an account of the conflict with Babylon. there is likewise an account that the Babylonians recorded. it is like examining an account of a admired conflict from the two between the main important warring events. distinctive data are under pressure, distinctive motives are given. The propaganda is consistent. Ezra is the only place interior the bible that this occurs. a large style of something of the civilizations have bills of wars, places and different events that are contemplated in bills from around them. basically the e book of Ezra has this interior the bible. almost each and every of something of the bible is going against any data we've controlled to locate. No slaves in Egypt construction temples. No camels interior the jap mediteranian until after the Arab Spice investors began traveling by. etc. between the people stated Homer in answering your different question. it is definitely a stable factor. places could be located in Homer. It became the examination of the Illiad that led to Troy. The Illiad is a heroic tragedy nevertheless. It weas no longer meant to be a history of information. As a rfile that provides an concept of Greek mores and values on the time it became written it rather is a treasure. very like Hollywood video clips are from the Nineteen Fifties or Samuel Pepy's Diary. between the failings approximately egyptian archives is that all of us understand precisely whilst they wrote them, they placed the history of each and every Pharoa onto the partitions of his burial chamber. there is likewise large collections of fabric carved into caves and the graphitti. Even the erasures on public statues let us know very plenty approximately who wrote and why. Now using fact there is no person screaming with regards to the essential actuality of the Heiroglyphs people have been able to earnings them. in view which you have maximum of people annoying the bible to be authentic it is amazingly complicated to examine it. you have everyything from the lunacy of Ron Wyatt to the State of Israel denying what's on the floor in front of them using fact they're afraid it contradicts what they want the bible to assert. The gastes of Solomons Temple are the incorrect age for the area which they declare is the Temple, yet using fact the declare is political no person is able to remark. The Bible isn't sturdy, and as the three religions claiming it are at conflict, it is not a probability to examine the claims in it. Propaganda values rule rather of examine values.

There are generally two types of military.
One is the preservation of power among themselves. They are just theives and killers with big guns.
Then there is the tactical military that follows rules and strategy. I think these types of militaries are related to other militaries of their type. I wouldn't be too quick to call the Marines Spartans though, because there was man rape involved in their training.
