A retelling of the incident that cemented the term kamikaze as a part of Japanese culture, when a typhoon sank a large portion of an invading army’s fleet. Theoretically, this way would have reduced Japan to a province of China, if I remember my history correctly.

Wow ur really a history buff to know that.. image the outcome..interesting makes me thik what other events in history would be effected by weather ..
great images..

I have no clue of the historic event this affects…. but I loved the story!! Absolutely love it!

This was well researched and wonderfully written to boot. This challenge has been inspiring some top-class ficlets!

Awesome reconfiguration of history and thanks for also providing the history lesson to explain it. I love history, but I was not familiar with this one.

The world would be different today if that had happened. For one WW II could have taken a completed different turn. BTW : still waiting for your entry in my Zen Master challenge.
