    Did You Know?

    Did You Know? By *Marjorie Charlot Black presence in the military and in wars can be traced to various periods of the ancient world and across cultures. Jugurtha was a North African patriot who initiated the Jugurthine War (112–105 B.C.). His guerrilla warfare would inflict embarrassing defeat upon the Roman legions. Authors Brunson and Rashidi quote Graham Webster when he wrote, “The wars of Jugurtha demonstrated the value of the nimble Moorish horsemen who Trajan later found so useful against the Dacians.”1 Black Conquistadors Juan Bardales was a free black slave who participated in the conquests of Honduras and Panama. For the part he played in the conquest of Honduras, he received an award consisting of an annual subsidy of 50 pesos.2 Nuflo de Olano was a slave conquistador and explorer. He was part of the Vasco Núñez de Balboa expedition, along with 30 other Africans, 190 Spaniards, and 1,000 Native Americans when they went through the jungle to cross the Isthmus of Panama. De Olano in 1513 was with Balboa when they first saw the Pacific Ocean.3 Antonio Pérez was a free North African who was a cavalryman and one of Diego de Losada’s most valued captains in 1568. Pérez took part in the conquest of Venezuela.4 He was described as “an old soldier of African wars who had been with the emperor at the storming of Tunis.”5 Juan Portugués was either black African or black Portuguese. He was involved in the conquest of Venezuela.6 Miguel Ruíz was a free Spanish mulatto who was a conquistador in Peru and one of two blacks in Francisco Pizarro’s company at Cajamarca.

The entire process was at risk of being aborted, which could have resulted in the country lapsing back into the state of civil war and anarchy in which it had lived for more than a century.4 However, an individual by the name of Tokugawa Ieyasu 徳川家康 (1543-1616) 5 shrewdly took advantage of the hesitation shown by many of his rivals and the military weakness or lack of strategic vision on the part of others to take control of the Japanese Empire, which would remain in the hands of his family for more than 250 years.

Puck Brecher Washington State University Itami [ 伊丹]: City on the eastern edge of Hyōgo Prefecture; satellite town of Osaka; formerly famous for saké brewing. –zaké [伊丹酒]: Saké brewed in the Settsu Itami region; the best saké of the Edo period. –fū [伊丹 風]: A school of haikai from the time of Genroku. Itami residents, following Ikeda Sōtan, freely expressed original concepts in colloquial language. Sōtan’s pupil Uejima Onitsura took this poetic style in his own direction. Kōjien1 Alcohol has always been a muse for literary and artistic inspiration in Japan, but never had saké’s musings proved as socially transformative as in 17th and 18th century Itami, where it converted a community of townsmen into a village-wide poetry salon that remained devoted to the study and production of haikai for over a century. Through the concerted efforts of local saké brewers, Itami became widely regarded as a repository of uncorrupted amateur aestheticism at a time when haikai in Osaka and elsewhere languished under the bane of commercialization. As a suburban community that used Japan’s thirst for alcohol to gratify its own thirst for cultural refinement, Itami’s example forces a reconsideration of suburban cultural practice in early modern Japan.

My name is Thomas Poole and I am a freshman here at UNC Chapel Hill studying Political Science and Chinese. I was born and raised in Raleigh, North Carolina, and have participated in MUN for three years at Enloe High School. Coming into MUNCH, I knew I wanted to direct a historical crisis committee. As a delegate, there is nothing more entertaining to me than watching a historical committee get flipped on its head and rewriting history; that’s why I want to provide a similar experience for all of you. I chose the Sengoku Jidai as the setting for our committee because it naturally lends itself to Model UN. It is driven by individuals, by personalities that are remembered throughout history, and none more so than Oda Nobunaga. I’m excited for every delegate to interact with and become one of these personalities, and for all of the tense, strategic, and amusing interactions that are sure to come with it. Another focus I had when designing this committee was making sure that I created a level playing field for all delegates.
