PEOPLE OF THE ANCIENT WORLD: Emperor Kammu
EMPEROR Kammu (aka Kanmu) reigned in ancient Japan from 781 to 806 CE and is most noted for relocating the capital to Heiankyo (Kyoto) in 794 CE. Kammu was one of the most powerful emperors Japan had seen or would ever see, and his reign witnessed a restructuring of the royal household and government, reducing the state’s costs and making it better able to manage the country and fight corruption.
Kammu was born in 737 CE, his father was Emperor Konin (r. 770-781 CE) and his mother a Korean commoner. Initially removed from the line of succession, a common practice in the large families of emperors, he was later reinstated thanks to his supporters in the powerful Fujiwara clan which dominated most of the important positions of government and the imperial court. In 773 CE Kammu was officially selected as his father’s successor, no doubt helped by his influential uncle Fujiwara no Momokawa. In 781 CE Emperor Konin abdicated, and his son Kammu was made emperor. Kammu, as was the tradition, gave his reign an era name or nengo. His choice was Enryaku, meaning ‘prolonged succession,’ which would prove apt for his 25-year reign.

Research!
I’ve decided that since i plan on starting to learn this language, i thought it would be a good idea to get to know the language’s history and what it offers. I learned a lot about its origin, how it’s used today, and what advantages there are to learning latin. I think my plan for my presentation is to have a short conversation in latin and be able to understand what i’m saying. obviously it’s not gonna be a lot of speaking, but it’ll be some basics.
