  Most Famous Silent Film Actors...

  Editors Charles River

  Only a select few actors become international stars in their time, but none had as unique a career as Charlie Chaplin. Chaplin was the first true film star, and he managed to do so even when films were still silent. He has been honored with too many awards to count, and the fact that his name remains instantly recognizable nearly a century after his first film is a testament to his influence. Chaplin is known for the singular blend of pathos and humor evinced by his films, and it is not uncommon for audiences to laugh and cry at alternate points of a Chaplin film, a trait that continues to endear audiences even to this day. 
  In the 1920s, the burgeoning movie industry was starting to come into its own, and alongside actor and director Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton was at the peak of Hollywood. It’s no surprise that Keaton was so effective in silent films, because he had been practicing comedy in his family’s vaudeville acts as “The Little Boy Who Can’t Be Damaged”, becoming a popular performer by the age of 5. Indeed, his physical form of comedy, which initially involved having his father throwing him around the stage, translated well onto the screen, and some of his slapstick and other comic gags remain legendary even today, in part because Keaton practiced his own stunts.  
  Everything about Rudolph Valentino, from his body to the characters he played, was exotic. His career may have been abbreviated by his premature death at the age of 31, but Valentino popularized the (somewhat racist) stereotype of the “Latin lover” in Hollywood, and even his name was markedly more out of the ordinary than those of other actors. In an era dominated by hyper-masculine actors like Douglas Fairbanks, or comedians such as Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton, Valentino had a more ethnic and mysterious appeal, and he was lusted after by women to a degree that remains unsurpassed in the industry.

Put MY hand on my ear, three or four times, say BABA...BABA… …..BABA…. .BABA…...BABA…In my old house only burning kerosene lamps. Who was made by mom. I mean all the facilities weren't. Yet my father was always happy.Some days I took a rest. I met friends in the village. Walk in all the streets of my village. My father did use words of welcome when he met anyone like Hindu, they said, Jai Rama. With Muslim people As Salamo Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barkatahu. As I was used forever. In my village, there were hated people, arrogant people, jealous, adult boys who were naughty, hooligans, and romantic.But don't problems don't disturb anyone, they know that the government gives the same power to the poor or rich.And the most important thing from grandfather to grandfather is to live and die. Forefathers is an introduction. They can solve their problems.Everyone has a citizenship. They have the same rights. If there are any problems.Dad's advice I didn't accept. Because I want to see many people in different places. It is my most favorite hobby.

Alas, I took birth in an Indian leader's house.All of the above thoughts, that I am not sad in my life.How good, if I live already rich? I buy all my desired things.

  Medieval Japan - Samurai and...

  The rise of feudal Japan marked a significant turning point in the nation's political and social history. Beginning in the late 8th to early 9th centuries, the centralized power of the imperial court in Kyoto began to wane. As emperors became more ceremonial figures, real power shifted into the hands of powerful landowning families and military clans in the provinces. These regional lords, or daimyo, started to assert control over their own territories, gradually weakening the authority of the imperial government. 
  This period of decentralization gave birth to a new system where local warlords governed through a network of vassals and military retainers. In return for loyalty and service, these retainers were granted land or a share in the profits from agricultural production. This land-based reward system laid the foundation for the feudal structure that would define medieval Japan for centuries to come. Unlike in Europe, where feudalism was based on strict legal contracts, Japan’s version emphasized personal loyalty and honor, often backed by military strength. 
  The emergence of powerful clans such as the Minamoto and Taira further accelerated the move toward feudal governance. Their rivalry culminated in the Genpei War (1180–1185), a brutal conflict that ultimately led to the downfall of the Taira clan and the rise of the Minamoto. In 1192, Minamoto no Yoritomo was appointed Seii Taishogun, or Shogun, by the emperor, establishing the first shogunate in Kamakura. This event marked the formal beginning of military rule in Japan and the creation of a dual-government system, where the emperor remained as a symbolic figure while the shogun held actual power.
