Let it begin

I have created this blog, for both me and you to learn about Ancient Japan. In my comparitive Civilizations course, we are required to do a year long project, and the one I have chosen is to create a blog. Until May, I hope to be able to continually update this blog, and answer any questions you might have. I hope that this blog will make it so that you can ask me questions, as well as I can ask you some.
