The Age of Enlightenment (aka The Age of Reason) started in the early 17th century (1685 to be exact). It's key to know that early philospophers in England like Thomas Hobbes and Francis Bacon, as well as scientists such as Isaac Newton were really the ones who started it. The works they published in science, mathematics and philosophy provided the proper tools that would be used throughout the age. It's also key to know that nations other than England had their own Enlightenments, each starting some time after the English Enlightenment.

It primarily began as a result of philosophers and thinkers questioning traditional authority, and trying to change humanity through rational and moral improvements. This led to some of the greatests modern philosophers of our time, and changed the world into what we have today.

gladu [14]
I remember reading the book on this the attack that ended the Japans rein on Alaska was the Kiska battle which the Japanese have fought in the think fog with smokeless powder so the Americans and Canadians couldnt see them but the Japanese saw the Americans and the Canadians. The Japanese follow the Bushido code which was t<span>he unwritten Samurai </span>code<span> of conduct, known as </span>Bushido<span>, held that the true warrior must hold that loyalty, courage, veracity, compassion, and honor as important, above all else. An appreciation and respect of life was also imperative, as it added balance to the warrior character of the Samurai. So the Japanese took their grenades and took the pins out...hit it against their helmets...and held it against their chests or heads because they did not want to go back to Japan they technically couldn't because it would be dishonor. So it all ended with mass suicide and the two Atom Bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.</span>
