The Korean States

The development of the Korean States during the 200s-400s had a massive impact on Japan as four major polities emerged on the Peninsula. In this episode, we'll learn about the states of Koguryo, Baekje, Silla, and the Gaya Confederacy, as well as what we think happened regarding Japan's involvment in their inter-peninsular squabbles.

If you'd like to see some sweet maps as well as artifacts from some of these kingdoms, check out the supplemental post!
