Sun Yat-sen – A Kidnapping in London – Extra History – #2
Sun Yat-sen moves to a new city for safety, but it will not last long–a year after the Revive China society is destroyed and scattered, he is unwittingly kidnapped in London. He must rely on the ingenuity of his outside ally, Dr. James Cantlie…

10:04 I’m in the Video.
Do the battle of britain
For all of the urgency there was to getting him out of the consulate, surely the chinese government took his sweet time getting him out of London. XD
bureaucracy
Imperial China was infamous for how rigid it’s bureaucracy was
There was a time that the Emperor wanted to try some of this Pizza from Europe. By the time the order was placed. The Emperor was dead and the Border was closed. So…the pizza was never delivered. (I totally made up this story)
Yeah, they could took a lesson or two from Saudi Arabi
+Qardo hahahaha. Totally imagineable.
I think “emotional rollercoaster” describes this one pretty well.
‘1 day ago’, Time travel evidence
Wait, how.

AlphaxAlex a
Capitalism vs socialism
+A Name more like Marks/Engels vs Hayek/Mises
Just one single failed rebelled man… Rewriting The history of all Asia and whole world
The dude who burned the book was a legend and hero
He could’ve saved himself, but instead he saved many others. That’s dedication.
Merritt Animation to be fair, if he didn’t burn the book, he’d also probably be killed
+Ryan But he had the choice to flee instead.
Funny how Sun’s dream would end up bungled by the corruption of his succesor, and his whole movement would turn out to be just a segway into Mao’s China.
Sun was already exploring ideas that can only be implemented with zero freedom
+mxn1948 Oh, right. Okay, I haven’t really studied that period in a little while, so makes sense I’d forget.
The worst possible outcome
Sun is the one who introduced Leninism to China in his final years, his dream only became true locally in Taiwan when democracy is achieved in 1996 elections
+Shadowfury333 he was but chan ki shek would become the real power moving forward.
He expended allot of his power militarily and politically fighting the Japanese.
When the Soviets gave the communist side Manchuria. The nationalists were finished.
Stay tuned for the next episode of “Sun Yat-Sen: doing illegal stuff in major cities!”
Does that “Japanese botanist” have any more Pokemon? I need to beat Let’s Go.
Well Sun yat sen is going to Japan and Nintendo had been operating for seven years at that point, so… maybe?
+Garrett Monie I don’t think Hanafuda cards are going to help too much with that, unless Koi-koi is in some way connected to magicarp or something.
+Garrett Monie 8:30 New Creature Found
“Not because he had a plan”.
So he was an anti-Bismarckian type?
Antti Björklund he needs a lesson in planmaking.
More like a young Bismarck.
Dont forget the fist episode with bismarcks … “great”… plans….
Maank I’ll admit that.
Nice shades :p
+Maank They were uh… good-“ish” plans
Geez. If this were a fictional story instead of real life, I’d be pissed at all the ridiculous coincidences. XD
As the saying goes truth is stranger than fiction.
+Oson Houston that’s because Fiction has rules
Indeed, both sides hiring the same detective agency is so weird.
The critics would rip a fictional story with that kind of convergence to shreds.
My rationale is that they were living within a small circle of elite within London. That circle was probably quite small.
8:31 and 10:01
Looks like Ali’s been playing too much Pokemon.
I can’t imagine how many lives Lu Hao Dong saved in burning that book. The man knew that the revolution was bigger than himself. Such a sacrifice in the end.
I am strictly against book burning.
One of those ‘socialist’ thinkers that would influence Dr. Sun (other than Karl Marx, who he read quite a bit) was a man named Henry George, whose ideas of a ‘Land Tax’ still lives on in Taiwan.
