Kamikaze Destroys der mongolische Fleet

Über diesen Moment

The kamikaze (Japanese: 神風, lit. 'divine wind') were winds or storms that are said to have saved Japan from two Mongol fleets under Kublai Khan. These fleets attacked Japan in 1274 and again in 1281. Due to the growth of Zen Buddhism among Samurai at the time, these were the first events where the typhoons were described as "divine wind" as much by their timing as by their force.
