Personally, the Edo Period in Japan was extremely fascinating to me. So much was going on.

I have always had a connection to Native Americans and early American history. In my case, it could be explained by many vacations spent in Minnesota with Sioux indians. Although my father was Irish, he held strong the beliefs of Native Americans and passed these on to me and my sisters.

I have read that this type of connection could be an indication of a past life. I would really like to believe this (I like to think I was a Native American in a past life), but I have no personal experience to back it up.



I'm the one holding the chief's hand and smiling really big.

I've had a longing to the eras of The Pax Romana, The early & late ages of Medieval Europe. I am skilled with a sword, and I always wanted to venture off on an adventure, and the early middle ages would be the perfect time. As for the late middle ages, I'm drawn to it particularly thanks to the Renaissance. Besides that, I've always felt a connection to the Pax Romana as many great thinkers were in that time.

Me too. I would love to be living in the time of the Renaissance and I really love sword fighting. I just love learning everything about the Roman Empire and Italy. My Great Great Grandparents were living in a small town in the mid 1800s on the "heel" of  Italy's Boot across from Albania before they came to America. Whenever I hear about the Roman Empire I feel a great sense of pride. I just would really like to be there and be a warrior. I am not satisfied with civilized life. There is no excitement nothing. Living back then life was an adventure. I just always loved Rome. I feel the same way about Greek too. When ever I hear the story of the Battle at Thermopylae I feel a sense of pride and feel like that is where I belong back in the past.

I feel a connection to ancient Chinese/Japanese cultures in general.

I have a connection with my youth, for all intents and purposes it remains a different era. I think this is an important thing to maintain, its a constant struggle.

For any young blokes try reading The Catcher in the Rye, by J.D. Salinger. Its a great story about letting go of youth, somewhat controversial and an easy read.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Catcher_in_the_Rye

But anyhoo....yes!....that was a great era.....lol

I always found the 1000-1500 period interesting, the middle of the dark ages.  Back when most of the world was a mystery and someone wasn't always watching.

I see ruins and old artifacts from that period all over the country (UK), maybe thats why
