    The volcanic eruption seemed a bit too convenient so I did some research. Apparently yes, there was a "unusually explosive eruption" that occured in 1790. Not only is the ash layer still very much present, but there are footprints in it, some dating from around that period (based on radiocarbon dating). It was once believed that the footprints were from surviving warriors, though a survey in 2008 concluded that most of the footprints were from either women or children. Also the rebellious army was apparently on or very near the summit when the eruption happened. That's one rather unique way to loose an army, having the mountain you are walking across erupt under your feet.

      If you're going to attempt to correct someone, you should do your homework first. The volcanic ash itself wasn't what was tested, but rather organic material that was trapped by the ash and turned to charcoal.

      @00101001000000110011 7 років тому +69

      that's not the origin of the word "mana", singular. Mana was a word used by Jews before Christ in one example. i think there are even older uses of the word than that.

    • @davidmaxwell4696
      @davidmaxwell4696 7 років тому +104

      The word mana occurs in a variety of languages. I'm honestly not sure which one went on to influence the current usage of the word, you can make a pretty good case for most of them. I'm pretty partial to the Hawaiian origin myself though lol

    • @geraldgrenier8132
      @geraldgrenier8132 7 років тому +131

      "Mana" as used in this video is Polynesian. the Jewish word you're referring to is "Manna" and referes to god given food, no a type of spiritual power.

    • @greenlink875
      @greenlink875 7 років тому +53

      It certainly wasn't the Jewish one, that was divine bread from heaven, not a spiritual power of any kind.

    • @hagamapama
      @hagamapama 7 років тому +63

      The Jew thing is manna. This is Mana. There's a difference that's a lot bigger than a single N. Especially because the video game version is a lot closer to Mana than manna.

      Zombienation808 It's not that he was born there that makes him Hawaiian, it's that their culture shaped the person they are today, that really makes OP Hawaiian. But you are right, legally he is Hawaiian.
      Still, I can't help but wonder, if someone is born in Wisconsin but before they can remember they are moved and raised in California would they really be Wisconsinites? Would Wisconsinites even accept or recognize them as a Wisconsinite?

      There seem to be different "levels" of Hawaiian... Not in an obviously bad way though.
      There are people who look native Hawaiian and get treated a bit differently, because people are just naturally a bit racist.
      There are folks who grew up with "native Hawaiian culture". A lot of that is actually a relatively recent 'revival' version of traditions though.
      There are non-natives who have lived for a generation or more on the islands, many of who are part of ethnic/cultural communities based on their ancestral homeland but also distinctly a "Hawaiian" version.
      And there are people who's families came from someplace else who grew up here.
      Interestingly, to me since I'm one of them... Folks who have lived in Hawaii for even a few years are considered Hawaiian in some contexts. It isn't just the legal thing. Especially on the Big Island, a lot of people come and go quickly when their imaginations (based on media and being a tourist) are confronted by the reality of actually living here. Once you've been here long enough to sort-of prove that isn't you, people start treating you a bit differently.

      Poetic Pariah It would probably look a bit like total war shogun 2 if you ask me. All clans have the same troops but each clan has certain specializations. The only problem I see with this is the size. The Hawaiian islands aren't exactly the largest so it could cause some problems gameplay wise. Also navel combats would most likely play a larger roll in it.

    - Kamahamahe took great losess but used faith-resources to "build" primitve military units. Then he upgraded them with Gold into rifleman.
    - It was not a vulcano that killed his rivals army. It was his Ally Gandhi. Ganhi dropped some Nukes on them. How did Gandhi get some Nukes in the middle age? Kamahameha is playing on diffulculty Level: Deity (=impossible).

    Akira Toriyama actually tried a number of poses when he was alone in order to decide the best pose for the Kamehameha. After much contemplation, he could not decide on a name for his "Kame" attack, so he asked his wife (Nachi Mikami), who came up with the name.[13] She told Akira that it would be easy to remember the name of the attack if he used the name of the cultural Hawaiian king named Kamehameha (lit. "the very lonely one" or "the one set apart" in Hawaiian language).

    This will probably get lost in the comments, but I'm here to tell a cool story about the king that relates to my family. Long ago one of my ancestors went on a Mormon mission (when the Mormon church first began) to Hawaii to preach "the truth" and whatnot. He came across the descendants of king K and taught them "the truth" and as a gift for sealing their family "forever" they gave him the staff used by kamehameha to my great great... grandfather and it was passed down to my great grandfather who donated it (along with the journals of my ancestor who got it) to (I think, don't quote me on this) the BYU Hawaii campus to be on display for all to see. Which means I've touched the hands of someone who has touched the staff.
    TL;DR: great something grandpa got kamehamehas staff as a gift for giving the family Mormonism and my great grandpa donated it to BYU (I think)

      Yeah, he likely did it on purpose. There was precedent where the same thing happened with the legendary king Umialiloa centuries before, which Kalaniʻōpuʻu would have known well. Kamehameha was highly regarded by Kalaniʻōpuʻu, probably moreso than Kīwalaʻō, his son, who accounts show as being a bit of a detached and weak ruler.

      Naman Hegde Actually, he did name it after the king. Yes, kame means turtle in Japanese, but Toriyama couldn't think of anything catchy to name the move that had 'kame' in it. So he asked his wife and told him about King Kamehameha. He talked about it in an interview waaay back when.

    So, for the sake of having a sense of scale, how many warriors were generally involved in these battles? My euro-centric, uninformed arse thinks of the 18th century Polynesian islands as small and sparsely populated, so I'm imagining the battles as twenty guys with spears being cross with each other.

      The estimates have been around 10,000 men on some of the larger invasion forces including his failed 1804 attempt to conquer Kauai where he mustered over 1000 war canoes. Hawaii had a population of 800,000 or 500,000 during this period. Most Polynesian islands are still recovering from the effects of Western diseases even in Hawaii outside of the metropolis of Honolulu, you don't see people living by subsistence in the more remote valleys and farm or ranch lands which once supported large settlements.

      In the largest single battle in Hawaiian history (which Kamehameha participated in and won), nearly 5% of the entire population of the Hawaiian islands fought each other. To put that into perspective, a similar battle scaled to the population of the modern US would involve anywhere between 10 and 15 million people fighting in a single location.

      if you ever go to Hawaii, even though on a map it seems small, its actually quite a large landmass. If it had been put in closer proximity to other lands, it mightve had a good chance of becoming a pacific empire
