My areas of expertise are: 1. Ancient India (from the Indus Valley Civilisation to Harshavardhana) 2. Medieval India (from the 10th century Rajput rulers to Aurangzeb) 3. Modern India (from the decline of the Mughal rule to the Independence struggle) I am particularly skilled at dates, events and political history of these eras...not particularly with administrative aspects, though I can try and answer those as well.

Feel free to ask any general or specific questions you may have about Japanese culture, language or history. My particular expertise lies in Japanese modern history (from Meiji Era to present), especially in areas of military and naval affairs, educational policy, nationalism and the creation of national identity and popular culture. I am also a professional translator, and can answer your specific questions about Japanese language usage (no free translation requests, though, please!).
