#4  Procopius2K, there is far more history than that! Mimizuka: "The monument enshrines the severed noses of at least 38,000 Koreans and over 30,000 Chinese killed during Toyotomi Hideyoshi's invasions[1592 to 1598]."

'Ancient History, Dad!' someone might say, but this is the sort of events that cast ripples through a national psyche like the repeated invasions have on the peoples of China and Russia.
