Hernan Cortes (1485-1547) was a Spanish colonizer and conqueror, who leaded the conquest of the Mexican territories, that started in 1519 with the occupation of Veracruz. The tales about the sacking of the Mexican capital, Tenochtitlan, are still legendary nowadays.
After the takeover of Veracruz, Cortes gave the order of sinking his own ships (it was thought they were burnt, but nowadays that hypothesis is being questioned). Anyway, he destroyed his ships on purpouse to force his men to go forward and conquer the New World, both in the militar and spiritual (goal of spreading the Christian religion) dimensions.
- Agreement with his decision: of course it is an incredibly effective manner of ensuring that his men would be motivated to conquer the territory, mainly because they did not have an alternative choice. They had to become rulers there or be lost in the middle of unknown lands. It can be claimed how the ultimate goal justifies the means.
- Disagreement with the decision: it can be argued how unethical is that he prevented his men from deciding if they wanted to participate or not on the mission. He eliminated the choice.

According to Sei Shonagon -a Japanese author in ancient Japan- Chinese influence was reflected in the life of the Court.
Aproximatelly in the eighth century, Japan built a city in the central part of the territory called Heian-kyo, which means "peacefulness.", what today is known by Kyoto.
During the period of Heian(794-1185), Japan lived periods of stability and the aristocracy of the Imperial Court dedicated part of their lives to spread culture, art, poetry, and social organization that somewhat was influenced by China Buddhism, and Confucianism.
And as times went by, this segment started to move away from those influences to develop their own poetry and arts, as Japanese aristocracy considered that art was one of the most important human accomplishments.
