Ok, i chose byzantine and medieval japanese civilizations and need these questions answered for a project.

1. did these two cultures develop any technologies that were similar to each other?

2. is there anything that these cultures did that was very different from each other?

3. is there something that developed in one culture that would have solved a
problem for the other?

i am putting a lot of points on the line

1. Did these two cultures develop any technologies that were similar to each other?

The Byzantine Empire and Medieval Japanese Empires both had their version of a grenade. The Byzantine Empire had the “Greek Fire Grenade” wherein they discovered that Greek Fire could be put into jars and thrown by hand or catapulted. The Medieval Japanese has their own forms of long distance fire power such as Horokubiya bombs and Hiya Taihou Rocket launchers.

2. Is there anything that these cultures did that was very different from each other?

The Byzantine Empire culture was different from Medieval Japan. The Byzantine Empire military was often smaller than most of its opponents in war, ruled by an elite class, and relied on the strength of its men rather than tactical strategy or advanced warfare technology. In Medieval Japan the military was ran by the warrior samurai.

3. Is there something that developed in one culture that would have solved a

problem for the other?

Gunpowder from Medieval Japan would have assisted the Byzantine Empire to fight back against the Ottoman Empire. The Byzantine Empire ultimately fell at the hands of the Ottoman Empire and their precise, destructive use of gunpowder warfare.
