July 2023 – Revealing What Has Been Hidden in Front of Our Eyes

The East India Companies, the Theft of India & the Legacy of the Mughal Empire

I have collected a variety of puzzle pieces about different places that bring a bigger picture into focus that is not immediately apparent on the surface over the course of several years of doing extensive research.

I looked at the foreign involvement in the development of Japan’s Military Empire of the late 19th-century to the mid-twentieth-century in our historical narrative, and in its being dismantled, in my last post.

In this post, I am going to be looking into the East India Companies, the theft of India & the legacy of the Mughal Empire.

Most of the research in this post came from a 23-part series called “Sacred Geometry, Ley Lines & Places in Alignment” that I did back in 2020 tracking a long-distance alignment beginning in San Francisco, in which I crossed through this part of the world twice, though I did augment my original findings with new research to illustrate what took place according to our historical narrative.

India was called the “Jewel in the Crown” of the British Empire. and its largest, and most important, overseas possession.

Much of the British Empire was built around India, in order to provide routes to, or protection for, India.

India was prosperous and rich, in spices, silk, indigo, gold, cotton, and other products and resources.

Trade with, and eventual political dominance of large parts of India, was what provided Britain with large parts of its wealth in the 1700s through 1900s.

But how exactly did this happen?

I will be exploring answers to this question in this post.

The historical Mughal Empire occupied what corresponds to the modern countries in South Asia of India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Bangladesh.

I am going to begin this post on the theft of India and the legacy of the Mughal Empire with first of the East India Companies of Europe- the British East India Company.

The British East India Company held a monopoly granted to it by Queen Elizabeth I of England in 1600 between South Africa’s Cape of Good Hope and Tierra del Fuego’s Cape Horn at the southern tip of South America, until 1834 when the monopoly was lost.

It was initially formed to trade in the Indian Ocean region with the East Indies, which was the Indian subcontinent and southeast Asia, seized control of large parts of the Indian subcontinent, and ruled the beginnings of the British Empire in India.

Its three Presidency Armies totalled an estimated 260,000 soldiers, twice the size of the British Army at the time.

It ceased operations on June 1st of 1874 when it was dissolved.

The British East India Company ruled over parts of the Indian Subcontinent between 1757 and 1858, commencing after the 1757 Battle of Plassey, called a decisive victory over the Nawab of Bengal, and this was considered to be the start of British Imperialism in India, and a key step in the eventual British domination of vast areas there.

The British East India Company first arrived in India at Madras in 1600, making it their principal settlement, and we are told, constructed Fort St. George in 1644.

Madras has been known as Chennai since 1996.

The British India Company was said to have come here in order to have a port close to the Malaccan Straits, the main shipping channel between the Indian Ocean and Pacific Ocean, and to secure its trade lines and commercial interests in the spice trade.

It is one of the most important shipping lanes in the world.

They succeeded in their securing their goals, as the British East India Company obtained the Prince of Wales Island in the Malaccan Strait.

Prince of Wales Island is known today as Penang Island, the main constituent island of the Malaysian state of Penang.

Apparently the British East India Company was able to successfully take what they named the Prince of Wales Island from the Kedah Sultanate in 1786, which became the capital of the Straits Settlements, a group of British territories in Southeast Asia established in 1826, including Melaka and Singapore.

The Kedah Sultanate was an historical Muslim dynasty located in the Malay Peninsula, said to have dated as an independent state from 1136 AD.

Its monarchy was abolished with the formation of the Malayan Union in 1909, but restored and added to the Federation of Malaya in 1963.

The Madras Presidency, or the Presidency of Fort St. George, was an administrative subdivision of British India, and established in 1652.

At its greatest extent, the Madras Presidency included most of southern India, including the whole of the states of Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh; parts of Odisha, Kerala, and Karnataka; and the union territory of Lakshadweep, a group of islands off India’s southwestern coast, and the northern part of Ceylon, called Sri Lanka since 1972.

The Madras Presidency ended with the advent of Indian independence on August 15th of 1947.

Elihu Yale became President of the Madras Presidency in 1684.

Elihu Yale was a British merchant, trader, and a President of the British East India Company settlement at Fort St. George…

…who later became a benefactor of the Collegiate School in the Colony of Connecticut, which in 1718 was renamed Yale College in his honor.

As a noteworthy aside, the Skull and Bones Society was founded as an undergraduate senior secret student society at Yale in 1832.

The Palk Bay and Palk Strait separating the southern end of the Tamil Nadu State and northern Sri Lanka were named for Sir Robert Palk, an officer in the British East India Company who served as the President of the Madras Presidency between 1755 and 1763.

Under the Provisions of Pitt’s India Act of 1785, which brought the East India Company’s rule in India under the control of the British Government, Madras became one of the three provinces established by the British East India company, whose leader became ”Governor ” instead of “President” because the “Governor-General” in Calcutta, the monarch’s representative, became the superior office of authority.

William Petrie was an officer in the British East India Company in Madras in the 1780s.

An amateur astronomer, he was given the credit for making the first modern astronomical observations outside of Europe in Madras in 1786.

We are told his home observatory and instruments contributed to the first modern observatory outside of Europe, the Madras Observatory, shown here, said to have been built around 1792, with the first observations on the meridian being in 1793, said to have been designed by Michael Topping, the Chief Marine Surveyor of Fort St. George in Madras.

The Madras Observatory was described as having a single room that was 40-feet, or 12-meters, long and 20-feet, or 6-meters, wide, with a 15-foot, or 5-meter, high ceiling, as well as a granite pillar weighing 10-tons, or 9-metric tonnes, in the center of the room.

Seriously, a 10-ton granite Pillar?

Well, the granite pillar still exists in the present-day, with an engraving by those said to have erected it.

Could some kind of sand-blasting technology been used on an already existing granite pillar?

At any rate, this massive granite pillar is found on the grounds of the present-day Regional Meteorological Centre in Chennai, though the original building of the Madras Observatory no longer exists.

Another observatory in South India is the Kodaikanal Solar Observatory…

…located in the Palani Hills, southwest of Vellore in Tamil Nadu State.

Founded in April of 1899, legend has it that the observatory’s 6-inch telescope was said to have been brought on foot by four men who climbed steep valleys and braved the attack of wild animals, carrying the telescope on their shoulders for almost three-months.

It is interesting to note that there are abandoned observatories dotting the landscape of the hills behind Kodaikanal.

Vedic astronomy has ancient roots in India…

…going back at the very least thousands of years.

Yet they want us to believe the British East India Company brought the science of astronomy to India?

Here are some other historical events that were said to have taken place during the time period of the Madras Presidency.

Nandidurg, an ancient hilltop fortress in Karnataka State’s Nandi Hills , was at one time believed to have been impregnable…

…but was successfully stormed by the Army of General Charles Cornwallis in 1791, the 1st Marquess of Cornwallis in the Third Anglo-Mysore War, a conflict in South India between the British East India Company and the Kingdom of Mysore, and the same General Cornwallis famous for being defeated at the Battle of Yorktown in 1781, and being forced to surrender, basically ending the American Revolutionary War.

In spite of his loss and surrender to the Americans in the Revolutionary War, Cornwallis was knighted in 1786, and in the same year became the British Governor-General and Commander-in-Chief in India.

The Nandi Hills later became a resort for British Raj officials during the hot season.

The Kingdom of Mysore was said to have been founded in 1399, and was a princely state from 1799 to 1950, and in direct control by the British starting in 1831.

Mysore was said to be considered among the more developed and urbanized regions of India.

There were all together four Anglo-Mysore Wars between the Kingdom of Mysore, and the British East India’s Madras Presidency and neighboring Kingdoms fighting against Mysore.

After the fourth Anglo-Mysore War in 1799, Mysore was dismantled to the benefit of the British East India Company in the process of taking control of much of the Indian subcontinent.

The first significant rebellion against British rule erupted at Vellore Fort in 1806, known as the Vellore Mutiny, or Vellore Sepoy Mutiny.

While it only lasted one day, it was the first instance of a large-scale and violent mutiny by Indian Sepoys against the British East India Company.

The Sepoys, Indian soldiers fighting under British orders, seized the Vellore Fort, and killed or wounded 200 British soldiers, but the mutiny was subdued by the end of the day by cavalry and artillery from another nearby British unit.

This pillar at Hazrath Makkaan Junction in Vellore commemorates the 1806 Vellore Mutiny.

The Vellore Fort is known for its grand ramparts, wide moat, and robust masonry.

The fort’s ownership was said to have passed from the Karnata Empire to the Bijapur Sultans, to the Marathas, to the Carnatic Nawabs, and finally to the British…who held the fort until India gained independence in 1947.

More about what that “independence” from Great Britain actually looked like later in this post.

The Kingdom of Kandy was said to have been founded in 1469.

This map is described to be that Sri Lanka in the 1520s, known previously as Ceylon.

In 1592, Kandy became the capital city of the last remaining independent kingdom in Ceylon after the coast regions had been conquered by the Portuguese.

From that time, the Kingdom of Kandy kept the Portuguese and Dutch East India Company at bay, but succumbed finally to British colonial rule when the kingdom was absorbed into the British Empire as a protectorate via the Kandyan Convention of 1815, an agreement signed between the British and members of the King’s court which ceded the kingdom’s territory to British rule, and the last king was imprisoned.

Ceylon was a British Protectorate until its independence in 1948, and the name of the country was changed to Sri Lanka when it became a republic in 1972.

The last King of Kandy in Ceylon was Sri Wickrama Rajasinghe.

He hwas arrested by the British in 1815, and in January of 1816, he and his families were sent to the Madras Presidency on the HMS Cornwallis, the same ship on which the Treaty of Nanking, or Nanjing, between the British Empire and China would be signed after China’s defeat, after the First Opium War in 1842.

The Muthu Mandapam, or Pearl Hall, located on the banks of the Palar River in the Tamil Nadu State’s city of Vellore. is the resting place of the last King of Kandy in Ceylon, and a place where Sri Lankans today journey to in order to pay their respects to him.

The Kandyan Convention was signed in the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic.

Also known simply as the Temple of the Tooth, it houses the tooth of the Buddha, venerated as the Buddha’s only surviving relic.

It was believed that whoever holds the relic, holds the governance of the country.

The Temple of the Tooth, or Sri Dalada Maligawa, is part of the Royal Palace Complex of the former Kingdom of Kandy, located on a canal…

…extending from Kandy Lake, also known as the Kiri Muhuda, or Sea of Milk…

…an artificial lake, and said to have been built next to the Temple of the Tooth by the last King of Kandy in 1807.

After the kingdom’s downfall, the Royal Palace of Kandy became the residence for the primary British agent, and nowadays is a museum of archeology.

Next, I am going to mention the Dutch East India Company and its connection to Mughal Bengal.

On March 20, 1602, Dutch East India Company was chartered to trade with India and Southeast Asian countries when the Dutch government granted it a 21-year monopoly for the Dutch spice trade.

Also known as the VOC, or Veerenigde Oostindische Compagnie, it was chartered as a company to trade primarily with Mughal Subah, or Mughal Bengal, which includes modern Bangladesh, and the West Bengal state of Modern India.

It has often been labelled a trading or shipping company, but was in fact a proto-conglomerate, diversifying into multiple commercial and industrial activities, such as international trade, ship-building, production and trade of East Indian spices, Indonesian coffee, Formosan (Taiwan) sugar-cane, and South African wine.

The first formally listed public company by widely issuing shares of stock and bonds to the general public in the early 1600s, it was the world’s most valuable company of all-time, with a worth of $7.9-trillion.

It is considered by many to be to have been the forerunner of modern corporations.

Chartered to trade primarily with Mughal Bengal, from where 50% of textiles and 80% of silks were imported, Mughal Bengal was described as a “Paradise of Nations,” and its inhabitants living standards were among the highest in the world at one time…

…and for comparison, a typical photo of the poverty found in Bangladesh today.

The borders of the country of Bangladesh were the major portion of the historic region of Bengal, an ancient civilization dating back at least 4,000 years.

“The Presidency of Fort William,” was first established in Calcutta in 1699.

Calcutta, or Kolkata today, is the capital largest city of what is now the Indian State of West Bengal, and the largest Bengali-speaking city after Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh.

Interesting to note that Kolkata is the only city in India with a public tram service that is still in operation.

We are told that Tram Transport in India was established in the late 19th-century by the British…and that between the 1930s and 1960s, the other acknowledged electric tram services in Madras, Cawnpore, Delhi, and Bombay were discontinued.

In Dhaka, This building is what is called the Pink Palace, or Ahsan Manzil, in Dhaka, and was the official palace and seat of the Nawab of Dhaka, with construction of it said to have started in 1859, and completed in 1872.

The Pink Palace in Dhaka is described as having been constructed in the Indo-Saracenic Revival architecture style, also known as Indo-Gothic, Mughal-Gothic, and Hindoo Style, and was said to have been utilized by British architects in India in the later 19th-century, especially in public and government buildings.

This is the Kamalapur train station in Dhaka, with its gigantic archways.

It was said to have been designed and opened in the 1960s.

The railroad is an important mode of transportation in Bangladesh.

Dhaka was one of several places given the nickname “Venice of the East.”

This is a painting of Dhaka that was dated as 1861.

We are told that there are three major canal systems in Bangladesh that drain into the three major rivers around Dhaka – the Turag; the Balu; and the Buriganga rivers.

This is what the Kallyanpur canal looks like today.

Lalbagh Fort in Dhaka was said to be an incomplete 17th-century fort complex, with work starting on it said to have begun in 1678.

The main buildings of the complex consist of the mosque…

…what is called the Tomb or Mausoleum of Bibi Pari…

…and the Diwan-i-Aam.

Below the Diwan-i-Aam in this picture, it looks like there might be a megalithic wall, but it is hard to tell for sure and I can’t find a better picture than this of what shows up there.

The Bengal Presidency emerged from trading posts established in Mughal Bengal starting in 1612, in the reign of the Mughal Emperor Jahangir.

This portrait of Jahangir with the radiant halo around his head is not only typical of other portraits of Jahangir, it was typical of other Mughal Emperors as well.

The Mughals were Sufis, facts about both of which have been greatly obscured in the historical narrative.

Who are the Sufis?

Mystics, and practitioners of the inward dimension of Islam.

Sufism emphasizes personal experience with the Divine, and concentrating one’s energy on spiritual development.

Back to Bengal.

During the 18th-century, the Nawabs of Bengal were among the wealthiest rulers in the world, and governed as independent monarchs within the Mughal Empire, though they contributed the largest share of funds to the imperial treasury in Delhi.

Bengal Subah became the base for not only the British & Dutch East India Companies, but for other European trading companies as well – the French East India company; the Danish East India company; the Austrian East India Company; and the Ostend Company.

In 1757, the British East India Company overthrew the hereditary Nawab of Bengal, Siraj-ud-Daulah, in the Battle of Plassey.

The Nawab’s defeat was made possible by the defection of his Commander-in-Chief, Mir Jafar, and several others.

As a reward for his defection, Mir Jafar was installed as the first dependent Nawab of Bengal of the British East India Company, who in-turn ceded revenues to what was called the “Company.”

This marked the beginning of Company-rule in India and its expansion across India, and by the mid-19th-century, the paramount political and military power.

The Bengal Presidency, also known as the “Presidency of Fort William” stretched all the way across northern India at one time…

…where one of the earliest railways said to have been constructed in India was the Solani Aqueduct Railway in 1851, which we are told was built for…

…the purposes of transporting construction materials for the Solani River Aqueduct.

Proby Cautley, an English engineer and paleontologist, and an officer in the British East India Company, was given the historical credit not only for the building of the Solani Aqueduct…

…but also the 350-mile, or 563-kilometer Ganges Canal between 1843 and 1854,which the aqueduct crosses, said to have had the greatest discharge of any irrigation canal in the world at the time of its construction, and described as an engineering marvel.

The Bengal Presidency ultimately became the the economic, cultural, and educational hub of the British Raj, the name given to rule of the British Crown in India between 1858 and 1947, and its governor was concurrently the Viceroy of India for many years.

In 1905, Bengal Proper was partitioned, separating largely Muslim areas eastern areas from largely western Hindu areas.

In 1912, British India was reorganized and the Bengal Presidency was reunited with a single Bengali-speaking province.

This first partitioning of Bengal seems to have been a human- and social-engineering project and a practice run for the 1947 Boundary Partition of India.

The Partition of India in 1947 divided British India into the Union of India and the Dominion of Pakistan along religious lines, displacing 10 – 12 million people and creating overwhelming refugee crises in the newly constituted dominions, as well as large-scale violence.

It involved the division of two provinces – Punjab and Bengal – based on district-wise non-Muslim or Muslim majorities, and resulted in the dissolution of the British Raj.

The Foreign Origins of the Rise & Demise Japan’s Military Empire

Over the course of several years of doing extensive research, I have collected a variety of puzzle pieces about different places that bring a bigger picture into focus that is not immediately apparent on the surface.

This includes, but is not limited to, extensive research of cities and places in linear or circular alignment with each other across long-distances; places that viewers have suggested that I look into; and research into seeing the events of our modern history since 1945 with new eyes.

I have found puzzle pieces about places like Japan that specifically relate to not only the foreign involvement in the development of Japan’s Military Empire of the late 19th-century to the mid-twentieth-century in our historical narrative, and in its being dismantled, I have found this same foreign involvement taking place in other countries as well, in a way that events seem to have been orchestrated and manipulated for desired outcomes and setting the stage for future events.

I will bring in other countries that experienced similar foreign involvement, but my main focus will be on the example of Japan.

Commodore Matthew C. Perry led four ships into Tokyo Bay’s Harbor on July 8th of 1853 in an effort to re-establish regular trade and discourse between Japan and the western world for the first time in 200-years.

Commodore Perry was ordered by President Millard Fillmore to Tokyo Bay with the mission of forcing the opening of Japanese ports to American trade by any means necessary.

Millard Fillmore had been the Vice-President in the administration of President Zachary Taylor, the 12th President of the United States whose term started in March of 1849.

A hero from the Mexican-American War, General Zachary Taylor died only a short-time after that, in July of 1850, allegedly after consuming copious amounts of raw fruit and iced milk at a July 4th fundraising event at the Washington Monument.

President Taylor became severely ill, and died several days later, and Millard Fillmore became the 13th President of the United States, serving as President from July 10th of 1850 to March 3rd of 1853.

Sounds like there might perhaps be more to the story than that, though after exhuming his remains in 1991, a coroner found traces of arsenic but ruled there was not enough to conclusively support poisoning as his cause of death, and he was re-interred.

Regardless, still seems rather suspicious, even after all these years have passed.

At any rate, reasons given for the interest of the United States in establishing a relationship with Japan included, but were not limited to: 1) The opening of China’s ports to regular trade and the annexation of California, which had created an American port on the Pacific Ocean for increased trade between North America and Asia; and 2) the replacement of the sailing ships of these American traders with steamships, necessitated the securing of coal supply stations, which Japan was believed to have vast deposits of.

With regards to the opening of Chinese ports to the United States just referenced, this took place under Caleb Cushing appointed by President John Tyler, the 10th-President of the United States, as Ambassador to China in 1843, a position which he held until March 4th of 1845.

The Cushing Mission to China arriving in Macau in February of 1844 consisted of four American Warships, which were loaded with gifts, and devices like telescopes and revolvers, in the hopes of impressing the Royal Chinese Court.

When the Chinese were not inclined to receive Cushing as an envoy, Cushing threatened with the U. S. Warships in his entourage, to go directly to the Chinese Emperor.

This tactic resulted in the Chinese Emperor negotiating with Cushing, and the Treaty of Wanghia, also known as the Treaty of Peace, Amity, and Commerce between the United States and the Chinese Empire in 1844.

Within six years of the signing of the Treaty of Wanghia, China was enmeshed in the Taiping Rebellion, a civil war between 1850 and 1864.

This was a civil war between the established Qing Dynasty, the last imperial dynasty of China, and Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, an unrecognized oppositional state in China supporting the overthrow of the Qing Dynasty.

Though, we are told, the Qing Dynasty ultimately defeated the opposing forces with the eventual help of British and French forces, the Taiping Rebellion left the economic heartland of China in the central and lower Yangzi River basins in ruins, and millions of people lost their lives as a result of it, as well as that in western eyes, China was marked as poor and backwards.

The “Daoguang Depression” took place in China between 1820 and 1850, a prolonged economic decline that coincided with the two most traumatic events of the 19th-century in China, the First Opium War and the Taiping Rebellion, and was a reason for the beginning of Chinese immigration to the United States in the 1840s, from which Chinese immigrants supplied labor for America’s growing industry, in the form of workers for mines, factories, textile mills, and the railroad.

The First Opium War was fought between Qing Dynasty of China and Britain between 1839 and 1842, a military engagement that started when the Chinese seized opium stocks at Canton in order to stop the opium trade, which was banned.

The British government insisted upon free trade and equality among nations and backed the merchants’ demands.

From 1757 to 1842, the Canton System served as a means for China to control trade with the west by focusing all trade in the southern port of Canton.

To counter this, the British East India Company began to grow opium in Bengal, in present-day Bangladesh, and allowed private British merchants to sell opium to Chinese smugglers for illegal sale in China.

As a result of these events in history, opium dens, establishments where opium was sold and smoked, became prevalent in many parts of the world throughout the 19th-century.

Some of the world’s wealthiest families today earned a fortune engaging in the opium business, like the Forbes family, a wealthy American family of Scottish descent long prominent in Boston. whose original fortune came largely from trading opium and tea between North America and China in the 19th-century.

The Treaty of Nanjing – AKA Nanking – ended the First Opium War on August 29th of 1842, the first of what was called unequal treaties between China and foreign imperialist powers, in which China paid the British an indemnity, ceded the Territory of Hong Kong to Great Britain; and agreed to establish a “fair and reasonable tariff.”

Back to Commodore Perry and the Opening of Japan.

Commodore Perry stopped in the Bonin Islands in 1853, also known as the Ogasawara Islands, on his way to Tokyo Bay to open it up for trade with the west.

They are comprised of over 30 tropical and subtropical islands located south of Tokyo.

There, Commodore Perry laid claim to the largest island, as a United States colony, calling it the U. S. Colony of Peel Island after former British Home Secretary and Prime Mininster Sir Robert Peel

Perry appointed a governor for the colony, a colonist on the island since the early 1830s named Nathaniel Savory, whom he purchased land from on Peel Island, for a steamship coaling location in 1853.

Once Commodore Perry and his ships arrived in Tokyo Bay, Perry was allowed to land and deliver a letter with United States demands to the Tokugawa Shogun, Ieyoshi, but only after Perry threatened to burn Tokyo to the ground.

The Shogun Ieyoshi died a short time after Perry’s departure in July of 1853, leaving effective administration in the hands of the Council of Elders, though nominally to his sickly son, Iesada, who was the Tokugawa Shogun from 1853 to 1858.

The Tokugawa Shogunate is called the last feudal Japanese Military Government…

… ruling from 1600 to 1868 from Edo Castle in Tokyo.

Here is a photo of one of the polygonal megalithic walls found on the grounds of Edo Castle…

…compared with this exquisite example of polygonal masonry at the Coricancha in Cusco, Peru.

Polygonal masonry is defined as a technique where the visible surfaces of the stone are dressed with straight edges or joints, giving the stone the appearance of a polygon, with minimal clearance between stones, and no mortar.

Perry returned again with eight naval vessels in February of 1854, and on March 31st of 1854, the Japanese Emperor Komei signed the “Japan and United States Treaty of Peace and Amity” at the Convention of Kanagawa under threat of force if the Japanese government…

…did not open the ports of Shimoda, located at the southern tip of the Izu Peninsula, and central to Japan’s political crisis around its inability to maintain its national seclusion policy during this time in its history…

…and Hakodate to American vessels, a port city located on the Tsugaru Strait of the Sea of Japan between the Japanese Islands of Honshu and Hokkaido.

The star fort of Goryokaku is located at Hakodate on Hokkaido, and was said to have been built between 1855 and 1866, by the Tokugawa Shogunate to protect the Tsugaru Strait from possible invasion by the Russian fleet.

Goryokaku was the site of the last battle of the Boshin War tha took place from December of 1868 until the end of June of 1869 between the Tokugawa Shogunate and Imperial forces seeking to seize power, and marked the official end of the Tokugawa Shogunate as the rulers of Japan.

Imperial rule had been restored to Japan starting in 1868 in the form of the Emperor Meiji in a time-period known in Japanese history as the Meiji Restoration, and brought in a centralized form of government in order to strengthen their army to defend against foreign influence as we are told.

Edo Castle, the star fort residence of the Tokugawa Shoguns, became the Imperial Residence in 1871.

It was during the Meiji era that Japan westernized and rapidly industrialized, leading to its rise as a military power by 1895.

Thomas Glover, a Scottish merchant, supplied machinery, equipment, ships, arms, and weapons to the Samurai of Choshu, Satsuma, and Tosu clans, who toppled the ruling Tokugawa Shogunate with the Fall of Edo on May 3rd of 1868.

Thomas Glover had arrived in Nagasaki in 1859 as an agent for what is today known as Jardine Matheson, a British multinational trading conglomerate that was founded in 1832 and based in Hong Kong, with the majority of its business interests in Asia.

The firm of Jardine, Matheson & Company emerged in 1832 from an evolving process of partnership changes of foreign companies that had first been established in 1782 as Cox & Reid, by John Cox and John Reid.

John Reid was an agent of the Trieste Company, part of the Austrian East India Company, the catchall term used for a series of Austrian Trading Companies based in Ostend and Trieste, that also included the “Imperial Asiatic Trading Company of Trieste and Antwerp,” the origins of which started in 1775 in our historical narrative for the Habsburg Monarchy government of the Empress Maria-Theresa for Austria to trade with British East India Company-ruled India from the Adriatic port of Trieste after a proposal to do so presented by Dutch-born British merchant William Bolts was accepted, and Bolts sailed forth with a 10-year charter allowing him to trade under Imperial colors between Austria’s Adriatic Ports and Persia, India, China, and Africa.

Two University of Edinburgh Medical School graduates, William Jardine and James Matheson, set-up headquarters of the firm that had evolved from Cox & Reid in Hong Kong after it had been ceded by China to Great Britain in the 1842 Treaty of Nanjing.

Jardine, Matheson & Company grew rapidly, smuggling illegal opium from British-controlled India into China, and the company has been called the “most successful opium smuggling company in the world.

Along with the trade in smuggled opium, as well as tea and cotton, the firm diversified into insurance, shipping and railways.

By the mid-19th-century, Jardine, Matheson & Company had become the largest of the foreign trading conglomerates, with offices in all the major Chinese cities, and in Japan in places like Nagasaki, where Thomas Glover had established the Glover Trading Company in 1861.

Glover was credited with building the Glover House overlooking Nagasaki Ironworks in 1863 as a base for his business operations in Japan.

Glover played a major role in Japan’s rapidly emerging industrialization.

Among other things, he was involved in establishing businesses that would become part of Mitsubishi’s early growth and diversification, which included the development of the first coal mine on Takashima Island.

Takashima Island was the location of the Hokkei Pit, the first coal mine in Japan to be mechanized by steam engines, and which operated between 1869 and 1876, and of which there are a few visible remains you can visit on the island.

Mitsubishi bought the coal mine on Takashima Island in 1881, which was the largest coal mine in Japan…

…and the mine was in operation until November of 1986.

When I was looking for information on the Takashima Coal Mine, I came across the article about the investment of British capital into the development of the Takashima Coal Mine, which played a crucial role in the rapid industrialization of Japan.

Mitsubishi was founded in 1870 under the name “Tsukumo Shokai” as a shipping company by Japanese industrialist and financier Iwasaki Yataro, only two years after the Meiji Restoration.

The company’s name was changed to Mitsubishi Shokai in 1873, with Mitsubishi coming from “mitsu” or three, from the number of oak leaves on the crest, or “mon” in Japan of the Yomauchi Clan that ruled over Yataro’s birthplace of the Tosa Peninsula, which is similar to the mon of the Tokugawa clan, called the “Triple Hollyhock…”

…and the “bishi” in the company name refers to the rhombuses seen in the company’s logo, known as the “three diamonds.”

Mitsubishi quickly diversified into fields related to shipping.

Things like entering into the coal-mining business in order to gain the coal needed to fuel ships; acquired a ship-building yard and an iron mill in Nagasaki to supply iron for its ships; and started a marine insurance company to insure ships.

In 1884, Yataro, the founder of Mitsubishi, leased the Nagasaki shipyard and iron foundry from the Imperial Meiji government and entered ship-building on a large-scale, and by 1887, had purchased these facilities outright.

In 1891, Mitsubishi acquired Hashima Island in the Nagasaki Prefecture, just south of Takashima Island, and started coal-mining operations there as well.

Hashima Island was nicknamed “Battleship Island.”

Mitsubishi established undersea coal mines on Hashima Island, which operated during the rapid industrialization of Japan, leading to Japan’s rise as a military power, and the time period during which Japan adopted western ideas and production methods.

Between its opening in 1890 and abandonment in 1974 when the coal reserves were depleted, Mitsubishi developed a community in order to turn Hashima Island into a coal-producing powerhouse.

This included thousands of forced laborers in the early-20th-century primarily from Korea.

More on the issue of forced labor to work the coal mines in a moment.

At the peak of its coal-mining production in 1959, there were over 5,200 people living on 16-acres, or 6.3-hectares, making it the most densely-populated place on the Earth at the time.

The First Sino-Japanese War took place between July 25th of 1894 and April 17th of 1895, between China’s Qing Dynasty and Japan’s Meiji Empire over influence in Korea, ending when the Qing government sued for peace after months of unbroken successes by the military superiority of Japan.

As a result, regional dominance in East Asia shifted from China to Japan, and Korea proclaimed its independence from China, and was lost as one of China’s Tributary states, while Taiwan became a dependency of Japan in 1895 as a result of the First Sino-Japanese War, and Japan’s first colony until the surrender of Japan at the end of World War II in September of 1945.

Then, Japan was part of an eight-nation alliance that invaded China in 1900 during the Boxer Rebellion that took place between 1899 and 1901, with the aim of relieving foreign legations in Beijing that were beseiged by the Boxer militia, who were determined to remove foreign imperialism from China.

The Boxer Protocol ending the Boxer Rebellion was signed between the Qing Empire and the Eight-Nation Alliance that provided military forces to defeat the Boxer Rebellion on September 7th of 1901, and was regarded as one of the unequal treaties.

Clauses of the Boxer Protocol included the payment of 450 million taels of fine silver as an indemnity paid over 39-years to the eight nations involved in the alliance. This equates to 18,000 tonnes of silver worth USD $333-million.

Clauses also included things like the prohibition of the importation of arms and ammunition, as well as materials for the manufacture thereof, for two years, or longer if the Powers saw fit, and the destruction of Taku Forts near Tianjin, most of which had been dismantled by the eight-nation alliance during the Boxer Rebellion.

Between 1904 and 1905, the Russo-Japanese War was fought between the Russian Empire and the Japanese Empire over rival imperial ambitions in Manchuria and the Korean Empire.

Japan saw Russia as a rival, fearing Russian encroachment would interfere with Japanese plans to establish a sphere of influence in both places.

The name of Manchuria is said to have come into use in Europe the 1800s.

Prior to that time, the vast region depicted on this map in purple was called Chinese Tartary, and the regions in yellow were considered independent Tartary.

After negotiations between Japan and Russia broke-down in 1904, the Imperial Japanese Navy started hostilities by a night-time surprise attack on the Russian Eastern Fleet in the Russian-held port of Port Arthur on the coast of Manchuria in China on February 9th of 1904.

Japanese forces landed in Chongjin in what is now North Korea at the start of the Russo-Japanese War, and established a supply base here because of its proximity to the front-lines in Manchuria.

After the end of the Russo-Japanese War, the Japanese remained here and declared the city an open trading port in 1908 for the transport of Korean resources to Japan and as a stopping point for resources from China.

The La Perouse Strait divides the southern part of Sakhalin Island from the northern part of Hokkaido, connecting the Sea of Japan with the Sea of Okhotsk.

One of the naval battles of the Russo-Japanese War took place here, the Battle of Korsakov, in 1904, with the Japanese preventing a Russian cruiser from rejoining the Russian Fleet in Vladivostok.

The Pacific Ring of Fire passes through the Kuril Islands, which are in the vicinity. This island chain has around 100 volcanoes, with 40 being active.

All of the islands are under Russian jurisdiction, however, Japan claims the two southernmost large islands.

The Strait of Tartary divides Sakhalin Island from southeast Russia, and connects the Sea of Japan with the Sea of Okhotsk.

The 51st parallel north passes right through here, a circle of latitude that is 51-degrees north of the equatorial plane. The capital cities of London, England, and Astana, Kazakhstan, are at the same latitude as the Strait of Tartary.

An interesting aside is the 51-degree pyramid, which is the angle of each of the sides of the Great Pyramid, and whose proportions relate both to the human form and the geomancy of the earth.

The Korea Strait between Japan and Korea, of which the Tsushima Strait is the Eastern Channel, connects of the Sea of Japan with the East China Sea.

This is where the decisive naval battle took place during the Russo-Japanese War in 1905, where Japan destroyed Russia’s naval fleet.

After Japan won the Battle of Tsushima, the Russo-Japanese War was concluded with the signing of the Treaty of Portsmouth on September 5th of 1905, which was mediated by President Theodore Roosevelt.

With Japan’s victory in this war, the balance of power in both Asia and Europe was shifted, resulting in Japan’s emergence as a great power, and Russia’s decline in prestige and influence in Europe.

After Japan emerged as the victor of the Russo-Japanese War, imperial Japan formally annexed Korea into the Empire of Japan in 1910, and Korea was under Japanese rule between 1910 and 1945.

It is estimated that during the Japanese occupation of Korea, before and during World War II, there were as many as 7.8 million Koreans were conscripted as forced labor or soldiers during Japan’s imperial expansion.

During World War I, Japan declared war on Germany in 1914 as an ally of Great Britain, and quickly seized the German colonies in the Pacific of the Mariana, Caroline, and Marshall islands.

On September 5th of 1914, the Japanese conducted the world’s first successful naval-launched air raids from the seaplane carrier Wakamiya, and on the next day, the first air-sea battle in world history took place when an aircraft launched from the Wakamiya attacked several Austro-Hungarian and German targets on sea and land.

In the years between World War I and II, the Japanese developed and launched the world’s first purpose-designed aircraft carrier, the Hosho, and then subsequently developed a fleet of aircraft carriers.

In China, the Chinese Civil War was fought off-and-on between the Nationalist Republic of China and the Chinese Communist Party from 1927 to 1949.

Japan already controlled the area along the South Manchuria Railroad, and its Army further invaded Manchuria in northeast China in 1931, after what is called the false-flag Mukden incident, in which Japan claimed to have territory attacked by the Chinese and giving justification for its invasion of Manchuria.

Subsequently, in 1932, the Japanese established the puppet state of Manchukuo in China, which lasted until 1945 when Imperial Japan surrendered at the end of World War II.

The Last Qing Emperor of China, Puyi, was installed by the Japanese as the Head-of-State of Manchukuo in 1932, and he became its emperor in 1934, a position he held until the end of World War II.

Puyi was only a figurehead, with the real authority in the hands of Japanese military authorities.

Puyi’s life story was very sad, as is told in the 1987 movie “The Last Emperor” directed by Bernardo Bertolucci.

By 1937, Japan had annexed territory north of Beijing, and after the Marco Polo Bridge incident, a battle between the Imperial Japanese Army and China’s National Revolutionary Army, and regarded as the start of the Second Sino-Japanese War, the Japanese began a full-scale invasion of China.

This led to Japanese conquests on the eastern coast of China and the occupation of Shanghai and Nanjing.

The Chinese suffered greatly in both military and civilian casualties, with an estimated 300,000 killed during the Nanjing Massacre, the mass murder of Chinese civilians, in the first six weeks of Japanese occupation, including mass rape, looting and arson.

It was considered one of the worst atrocities of World War II.

The Chinese Civil War between the Chinese Nationalist Party and the Chinese Communist Party that had started in August of 1927 was put on-hold between 1937 and 1945, when the two factions united in the face of the Japanese invasion of China and establishment of its puppet-state Manchukuo.

Generally referred to as the Chinese Communist Revolution, the Communists gained control of mainland China in 1949, forcing the leadership of the Nationalist Republic of China to retreat to the island of Taiwan.

In September of 1940, Japan became allies with Germany and Italy in what was called the “Tripartite Pact,” also known to history as the Axis, and in April of 1941, Imperial Japan and the Soviet Union signed a neutrality pact.

Japan refused to withdraw from China and Indochina, and an economic embargo against Japan by the United States, Great Britain, and the Netherlands started in July of 1941, particularly gasoline and things like scrap metal and steel.

Hideki Tojo was the Prime Minister of Japan between 1941 and 1944, during most of the Pacific War.

Tojo supported a “preventive war” against the United States, an armed conflict initiated in the belief that, while not imminent, war was inevitable, and that to delay would involve greater risk.

He oversaw Japan’s decision to go to war and its conquest of much of Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands.

Tojo was arrested for war crimes in September of 1945, after Japan’s unconditional surrender.

He tried to commit suicide by a self-inflicted gunshot wound at the time of his arrest, but he survived, was subsequently imprisoned, tried and executed by the end of 1948 for his crimes.

Isoroku Yamamoto was a Fleet Admiral of the Imperial Japanese Navy, and Commander-in-Chief of the Combined Fleet during World War II, the main sea-going component of the Imperial Navy.

Yamamoto oversaw the attack on Pearl Harbor; Battles of the Coral and Java Seas; and the Battle of Midway.

He was killed in April of 1943, apparently as the result of a targeted attack on his plane, as directed by American military leadership.

After the surprise attack by the Japanese on the U. S. Naval Base at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii on December 7th of 1941, the United States, United Kingdom, and other Allies declared war on Japan.

Initially, the Japanese encountered successes in the Pacific and Southeast Asia, capturing Hong Kong, Malaya, Thailand, Singapore, the Dutch East Indies, the Philippines, and other Pacific Islands.

They engaged in major offensives in Burma and the Imperial Navy attacked Australia.

The tide turned in the Allies favor with the Battle of Midway in the middle of 1942, when the U. S. Navy defeated an attacking fleet of the Imperial Japanese Navy, in which considerable damage was inflicted on the Japanese fleet.

While Japan did have some successes in land battles after that, from 1943 onwards, the Japanese military forces suffered major casualties and had many retreats.

Throughout the course of Japan’s military activity between 1937 and 1945, the Japanese were known for mistreatment of POWs and civilians through forced labor and brutality.

Kamikaze attacks began in October of 1944 when the war was looking bleak for Japan, part of the Japanese Special Attack Units of pilots flying suicide attacks against Allied naval vessels on the closing stages of the War in the Pacific.

These pilots would attempt to crash their aircraft, loaded with explosives into Allied ships, with an estimated 19% success rate.

Numbers included 3,800-such Japanese pilots killed, and 7,000 Allied personnel killed, as a result of these suicide attacks.

Japan was unwilling to surrender, and the tradition of dying instead of defeat, capture, and shame was deeply entrenched in its military culture.

There were three Big Three Wartime Conferences held between Great Britain, the United States, and the Soviet Union during World War II.

The first was held in Tehran in November of 1943, and in which Churchill, Roosevelt and Stalin committed to open a second front against Nazi Germany, two years after the Anglo-Soviet Invasion of Iran in August of 1941.

The second was held in Yalta on the Crimean Peninsula in February of 1945, in which Churchill, Roosevelt and Stalin met to discuss the post-war reorganization of Germany and Europe.

The third Big Three wartime conference was held in Potsdam, Germany between between July 17th and August 2nd in 1945.

They gathered to decide how to administer Germany after its unconditional surrender nine-weeks earlier on May 8th of 1945.

Franklin Roosevelt’s death occurred on April 12th of 1945, and his Vice-President Harry S. Truman succeed him and represented the U. S. as President at the Potsdam Conference…

…and on July 28th, the new Prime Minister Clement Atlee replaced Winston Churchill as the representative for Great Britain at the Potsdam Conference.

A number of changes had occurred since the Yalta Conference that greatly affected Big Three relations in Potsdam.

By the time of the Potsdam Conference, the Soviet Union occupied central and eastern Europe – with the Red Army effectively controlling Poland, Hungary, Bulgaria and Romania – claiming this region was a legitimate sphere of Soviet influence as well as a defensive measure against future attacks.

Outcomes of the Potsdam Conference included, but was not limited to: the division of Germany and Austria into four occupation zones, with their capitals of Berlin and Vienna divided into four zones as well; the prevention of Nazi activity and preparation for the reconstruction of Germany into a democratic state; the decision to put Nazi war criminals on trial; war reparations to Allied countries; and the dismantling of Germany’s war industry.

During the same time period as the Potsdam Conference, we are told the United States successfully tested the first atomic bomb on July 16th at Trinity Site near Alamogordo, New Mexico.

The Potsdam Declaration was issued on July 26th, an ultimatum calling for the surrender of all Japanese forces or Japan would face prompt and utter destruction.

This is what we are told in the historical narrative.

By August 5th of 1945, the first atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, destroying the city and killing over 70,000 people…

…and the second atomic bomb was dropped on the ship-building center of Nagasaki on August 9th, several days later, killing around the same number of people as Hiroshima.

I am not in position to say one way or another whether or not what we are told was what actually happened because I simply don’t know.

What I do know is that we have been lied to…A LOT…and that it is important to question everything we have ever been told about anything.

Then, Japan formally surrendered on August 15th of 1945, with the formal treaty signed on board the U.S.S. Missouri in Tokyo Bay on September 2nd of 1945, and was deprived of any military capability.

The Potsdam Declaration was intended by the Big Three to be the legal basis for administering Japan after the war, and after Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces in Japan General Douglas MacArthur landed there in September, it served as the legal basis of the occupation’s reforms.

MacArthur established U. S. Military bases in Japan to oversee the post-war development of the country in a period of Japanese history known as the “Occupation.”

While the Emperor Hirohito was allowed to remain on the imperial throne, the Japanese constitution was completely overhauled, and the Emperor’s powers became strictly limited by law, and a parliamentary democracy was installed as the new form of government.

When the 1947 Constitution was adopted, the “State of Japan” was established, and the “Empire of Japan” was dismantled and its overseas territories lost.

Also, after the August 15th surrender of Japan in 1945, the Korean peninsula was divided at the 38th-parallel into two zones of occupation, with the Soviets administering the northern half, and Americans the southern half.

In 1948, as a result of Cold War tensions, the occupation zones became two sovereign states – socialist North Korea and capitalist South Korea.

The governments of the two new Korean states both claimed to be the only legitimate Korean government, and neither accepted the border as permanent.

This state-of-affairs led directly to the Korean War in 1950, when North Korea invaded South Korea on June 25th following clashes along the border and insurrections in the South.

The Korean War was one of the most destructive conflicts of modern times, with around 3,000,000 deaths due to the war, and proportionally, a larger civilian death toll than either World War II or the Viet Nam War; caused the destruction of nearly all of Korea’s major cities; and there were thousands of massacres on both sides.

The same pattern of dividing a country into two different political systems and economic systems happened in Vietnam as a result of the 1954 Geneva Conference in Switzerland, to settle unresolved issues from the Korean War and the First Indochina War in Vietnam, and attended by representatives from the United States, France, the United Kingdom, the Soviet Union, and the People’s Republic of China, as well as from Korea and Vietnam.

The Geneva Accords established North and South Vietnam with the 17th parallel as the dividing line, and the French agreed to remove their troops from North Vietnam.

The agreement also stipulated that elections were to be held within two years to unify Vietnam under a single democratic government.

These elections never happened.

The non-Communist puppet government set up by the French in South Viet Nam refused to sign.

The United States also refused to sign on, with the belief that national elections would result in an overwhelming victory for the communist Ho Chi Minh who had so decisively defeated the French colonialists.

Within a year, the United States helped establish a new, anti-Communist government in South Viet Nam, and began giving it financial and military assistance.

The first Gulf of Tonkin incident took place on August 2nd of 1964 between ships of North Vietnam and the United States, and was an international confrontation after which the United States engaged more directly in the Vietnam War.

While there was a second Gulf of Tonkin incident alleged to have happened on August 4th of 1964, this second occurrence has long been said not to have taken place.

And there are the people who believe the first Gulf of Tonkin incident never happened either.

Whether or not the Gulf of Tonkin incidents actually happened, they were used as an excuse for the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution passed by Congress on August 7th of 1964, giving President Lyndon B. Johnson authority to help any Southeast Asian country whose government was considered to be in jeopardy of Communist aggression, and was considered the legal justification for the beginning of open warfare with North Vietnam and the deployment of American troops to Southeast Asia, of which, with the institution of the draft, there were over 500,000 troops sent by 1966.

President Gerald Ford had announced the end of the Vietnam War for the United States almost eleven-years later in a speech he gave at Tulane University on April 23rd of 1975, after Congress voted against his request for a $722 million aid package for South Vietnam, though money was given for evacuation.

The Fall of Saigon took place on April 30th of 1975, with entry of North Vietnamese forces into the city, and right after the helicopters of Operation Frequent Wind evacuated Americans, at-risk South Vietnamese and third-country nationals from the capital of South Vietnam.

North and South Vietnam were subsequently reunified as the Socialist Republic of Vietnam all the way through to the present day.

It certainly looks like Japan and other countries have been manipulated throughout our modern history by foreign interests, with events orchestrated and manipulated by unseen influencers for desired outcomes and the destruction of the original civilization and setting the stage for future events to bring us to the world we live in today.

Was Imperial Japan of the 1868 Meiji Restoration what is defined as “Controlled Opposition?”

Controlled Opposition is a strategy in which an individual, organization, or movement is covertly controlled or influenced by a 3rd-party and the controlled entity’s true purpose is something other than its publicly stated purpose.

The controlled entity serves a role of mass deception, surveillance or political/social manipulation. The controlled party is portrayed as being in opposition to the interests of the controlling party.

Who was involved in the creation of the new civilization and narrative?

Top candidates for this New World Order reset activity include Catholic orders like the Jesuit and Franciscan missionaries, the Hierarchy of the Roman Catholic Church and the Royal Houses of Europe…

…and their secret activities involved in this were carried out with the involvement of the highest echelons of secret societies including the Freemasons, Odd Fellows, and Knights of Pythias, and the Skull and Bones Society.

The definition of Zionism we are most familiar with is of an international movement originally for the establishment of a Jewish national or religious community in Palestine and later for the support of modern Israel.

But what if think Zionism was the vehicle by which the world’s Controllers, known by names such as the Illuminati, Cabal, Globalist elite, and Bilderbergers planned and executed the corporate structure for their global take-over of the world’s finances, resources and people.

They are a small number of related, elitist family bloodlines, hidden in different nationalities and religions, with elaborately-constructed plans for world domination.

We are living in a strange time of in-between right now, but I personally believe the world’s elitist controllers will not get away with all that they have done, and that their days are numbered.

Where is Hel on Earth?

In the course of doing research over the last couple of years based on viewers’ suggestions, I encountered some interesting places either with “Hel-” as a part of the name like the small archipelago off the coast of Germany known as both Heligoland and Helgoland, or actually named Hel, like Poland’s town of Hel, located on the Hel Peninsula separating the Bay of Puck from the Baltic Sea, and among other things both of the places were battle locations from the outset of and during World Wars I and II.

Based on my findings from this research, my curiousity was piqued about places named Hel on Earth and I decided to dive deeper into this subject.

My starting point for this post is Hel, the Norse goddess of the Underworld.

Hel was the daughter of the trickster god Loki and the giantess Angrboda.

Her brother Fenrir was a giant wolf, and her brother Midgardsormr, also known as Jormungand, a giant serpent.

Depicted with half-human and half-skeletal features, Hel is often referred to as the Goddess of Death…

…and the Ruler of the Dead.

Yet the goddess Hel was also considered by some in the positive light of being a “soul transformer,” helping us in our transition between life and death.

Hel’s name was the root of the English word “hell,” a place regarded as a spiritual realm of evil and suffering and perpetual fire where the wicked are punished after death.

What we are told about the goddess Hel is that she ruled over the underworld realm of the dead called Helheim, one of the nine worlds in Norse Cosmology, where we are told those who die a dishonorable death go to a land of ice without fire.

A “dishonorable” death was considered any death in which the person did not die in battle, including death from old age and illness.

We are told that “Valhalla,” said to translate from Old Norse as the “Hall of the Slain,” was a majestic hall in Asgard, a location associated with the gods and presided over by Odin.

Interesting that an immense tree named “Yggdrasil” serves as the connection between the nine worlds in Norse Cosmology.

The sacred and holy Yggdrasil, the World Tree, was said to be located at the very center of the Universe, with three roots extending far away into varying places.

One translation of the term “Askr Yggdrasil” refers to the World Tree, with “askr” meaning Ash Tree in Old Norse.

It is important to note that other translations have negative assocations.

One is that Yggdrasil means “gallows,” after “Odin’s Horse,” from which the Norse God Odin hung himself from the tree as a sacrifice.

Others have translated “Yggdrasil” from the Old Norse word “Yggr,” meaning “terror.” So then Yggdrasil becomes the “Tree of Terror” as opposed to the “Tree of Life.”

All of this information tucked away in our memory banks as myth needs to be taken into consideration when determining the true nature of this realm and the Universe, and all the ways truth has been inverted to emphasize death over life, and to demonize and cloak the actual nature of where we live and our place in the Universe.

One more thing before I move on from the goddess Hel and Norse Mythology and Cosmology.

A primary source of all of this information is said to come from the “Prose Edda,” also known as “Snorri’s Edda,” said to be an Old Norse textbook written in Iceland sometime around 1220 AD in the early 12th- century by the Icelandic scholar and historian Snorri Sturluson, and considered the fullest and most detailed source of knowledge about Norse mythology and body of myths of the northern Germanic people.

So here we have the fullest and most detailed source of knowledge of Norse mythology including a goddess named Hel who was the” Goddess of Death” and “Ruler of the Dead” from whom we get the name of hell for the place of fire and eternal suffering that the wicked go to when they die first appearing in the early 1200s.

We are told that seven manuscripts and or fragments of the “Prose Edda” survive today – six from the medieval period during the 1300s, and one is a copy of the Manuscript from the early 1600s called the “Codex Trajectinus,” housed at the University of Utrecht in The Netherlands.

We are also told that Snorri Sturluson’s works provided information on persons and events in northern Europe during times when such information was scarce and hard to find.

This information factored into establishing a Norwegian national identity during the Norwegian Romantic Nationalism period in the mid-19th-Century, a movement between 1847 and 1867 in art, literature, and popular culture.

Romantic Nationalism was the form of nationalism in which the state claims its political legitimacy as a consequence of the unity of those it governs, including such factors as language, race, ethnicity, culture, religion, and customs.

This was in opposition to dynastic or imperial rule.

More to come shortly on the background in our historical narrative of what was taking place in the same time period as the emergence of Romantic Nationalism around the mid- 19th-century.

Modern Italian, considered the closest of the Romance languages to Vulgar Latin, or the spoken form of Latin from the Late Roman Republic onwards in our historical narrative, was said to have developed in Tuscany in Central Italy, and was first formalized in the early 14th-century through the work of Florentine poet, writer and philosopher Dante Alighieri, considered the “Father of the Italian Language.”

The exact year of Dante’s birth was unknown, and much about his early life and education is not known.

Dante Alighieri’s best-known work was the “Divine Comedy,” also considered the pre-eminent work in Italian literature and one of the greatest works of world literature.

The “Divine Comedy” was a narrative poem believed to have been composed by Dante between 1308 and 1321, completed shortly before his death in September of 1321.

The poem has three parts – Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso – to which Dante journeys with a different guide for each, and the subject of the poem was the state of the soul after death, with Divine Justice being meted out as either due punishment or reward.

So within 100-years of the publication of Snorri Sturluson’s “Prose Edda” in Iceland bringing us concepts of a goddess named Hel meting out a mythological form of Divine Justice as punishment (Helheim) or reward (Valhalla), we have Dante Aligheri bringing us the same information albeit in the form we have come to know today as what happens to us after we die based on the state of our soul, and the modern Italian language as well.

With regards to the question in the title of this post “Where is Hel on Earth,” I am going to start with research I have done in the past which was based on viewers’ suggestions that led me to some places with “Hel” in the name.

One place that embodies this same dual nature of the word “Hel” in our world is a small archipelago of two islands in the North Sea that is known both as Heligoland and Helgoland – meaning either “Holy Land” or “Hell Land.”

These small two islands are located in what is called the Heligoland, or German, Bight in the southeastern corner of the North Sea, and has been part of the German state of Schleswig-Holstein since 1890.

The larger of the two islands has a permanent population of somewhere around 1,000 people.

The smaller of the islands is called Dune, which is not permanently inhabited, but is the location of Heligoland’s airport.

Heligoland was historically part of Denmark.

Great Britain had attacked Copenhagen in August of 1807 in what was called the “Siege of Copenhagen” during the Napoleonic Wars, using the pretext of the fear that Napoleon was going to attempt to attack the Danish-Norwegian Fleet.

Britain then proceeded to seize the Danish-Norwegian Fleet in September of 1807, assuring the use of the sea lanes in the North Sea and Baltic Sea for the British merchant fleet.

The “fleet robbery” drew Denmark-Norway into the war on the side of Napoleon.

On September 11th of 1807, Heligoland surrendered to the British Navy’s Admiral Thomas McNamara Russell, it became a center of intrigue and resistance against Napoleon.

Then, Heligoland was ceded by Denmark to Great Britain as part of the terms of the 1814, Treaty of Kiel between the United Kingdom and Sweden on the anti-French-side, and Norway and Denmark on the French-side.

The reason given for the Treaty of Kiel was to end the hostilities between the parties in the on-going Napoleonic Wars, which didn’t officially end until November of the following year, but the Treaty also officially ended the ruling Oldenburg Monarchy of Denmark-Norway when Norway was transferred to the King of Sweden.

Interesting to note the word “Hyperboreus” in this map relating to the Treaty of Kiel.

The memory of Hyperborea has come down to us as a lost ancient land considered to have been in the general vicinity of Greenland.

It was a fabulous world of eternal spring located in the far north, beyond the home of the north wind. Its people were giants, with blessed and long lives untouched by war, hard work, old age and disease.

It is called a myth, but was it mythical or did it actually exist?

We are told that the main reason the British retained the small Heligoland Archipelago was to inhibit any future French naval aggression against the Scandanavian or German states, though nothing was really done to fortify it during this time.

What it did become in 1826 was a seaside spa and popular tourist destination for Europe’s upper class, and attracted artists and writers like August Heinrich Hoffman, a German poet best-known for writing “Das Lied der Deutschen” in 1841, the third verse of which became the national anthem of Germany in 1922.

It is interesting to note that August Heinrich Hoffman was also a member of the Young Germany movement, a group of German writers which existed from 1830 to 1850, a youth revolutionary progressive ideology that included socialism which was sweeping Italy, Poland, France, Ireland, and the United States during this time as well.

Giuseppe Mazzini was the Italian politician, journalist, and activist, who founded the political movement for Italian youth (under age 40) in 1831, the forerunner of these other political movements for youth.

Mazzini also became the leader of the Bavarian Order of the Illuminati in 1834.

The Order’s founder, Adam Weishaupt, died in 1830 in Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, under the protection of Duke Ernest II, the brother of Prince Albert and cousin of Queen Victoria, who was also a cousin of Prince Albert.

The House of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld became the House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha in 1826, which became known to us as the House of Windsor in July 17th of 1917.

The name of the ruling Royal House of Great Britain changed from Saxe-Coburg and Gotha to Windsor exactly 200 years after the premier of Handel’s “Water Music” took place for King George I on a barge on the Thames on July 17th of 1717.

King George I became the first British Monarch of the German House of Hanover on August 1st of 1714, the German composer Handel had become a British citizen in 1727.

Queen Victoria was the last British monarch of the House of Hanover.

I do find the find the performance of “Water Music” for King George I on July 17th of 1717 and the changing of the name of the ruling house of Great Britain to Windsor from Saxe-Coburg and Gotha exactly 200-years later as a significant finding because there is no doubt in my mind that we are living on an occulted timeline with numerology being part of how it was occulted.

Numerology is the study of mystical relationships between numbers, letters and patterns, and can be use with both for good and evil intentions.

Back to Heligoland/Helgoland.

Heligoland became a refuge for the revolutions of 1830 and 1848 that were responsible for taking down the old ruling houses of Europe.

The Revolutions of 1830 and 1848 had the aim of removing the old monarchical structures and creating independent nation-states, and was the most widespread revolutionary wave in Europe’s history, with 50 countries being affected.

The goal was to remove the original ruling families, and ultimately replace them with a new form of government, which was ultimately controllable.

Great Britain ceded these two small islands in the southeastern part of the North Sea to the German Empire in the signing on June 1st of 1890 of the Heligoland-Zanzibar Treaty, also known as the Anglo-German Agreement of 1890.

The accord between the two countries, in addition to the Heligoland Archipelago, gave Germany control of the Caprivi Strip, a ribbon of land in the southeastern corner of Namibia, surrounded by Botswana to the South; and Angola and Zambia to the North…

…and gave access to the Zambezi River to German south-west Africa, and giving Germany control of the heartland of German East Africa.

In return for Heligoland in the North Sea and the Caprivi Strip in Africa, Germany recognized British Authority in Zanzibar, an island archipelago in the Indian Ocean off the coast of Tanzania in southern East Africa, which was a key link in British control of East Africa.

The Germans turned the islands into a major naval base, and the civilian population was evacuated during World War I.

The first naval battle of World War I, the Battle of Heligoland Bight, was fought on August 28th of 1914 between British ships and German ships.

By the end of the day, the Germans had lost three light cruisers and a torpedo boat, with three more light cruisers and torpedo boats each damaged, and 712 men killed in battle; and the British only had 35 killed, and four ships damaged – one light cruiser and three destroyers.

The battle was regarded as a great victory in Britain.

A “bight” is defined as a bay that is broad, open and shallow, or as a concave bend or curvature in a coastline, river or other geographical feature like a cliff.

Like maybe it was once land above-water once-upon-a-time?

More on the Hel Peninsula in a moment.

Between 1945 and 1952, Heligoland/Helgoland was used as a bombing range.

On April 18th of 1947, the Royal Navy detonated 6,700 metric tonnes, or almost 7,400 tons, of explosives in an attempt to destroy the island completely and remove it as a fleet base for the Germans, resulting in one of the biggest, non-nuclear explosions in history, shaking the main island down to its base and creating what is called the “Mittelland.”

On March 1st of 1952, Heligoland was returned to German control, and its former inhabitants were allowed to return after the German authorities cleared a significant quantity of undetonated ammunition and rebuilt the houses.

Today, it is once-again a holiday resort like it was back in the 19th-century, and enjoys a tax-exempt status.

What in the holy hell is really going on here??!!

One more thing before I move on. The viewer who pointed me in the direction of this place brought to my attention that the name of the southern point of Helgoland, which was “Sathurn” as seen in the 1900 map.

With regards to the subject of Heligoland/Helgoland, another viewer commented that Heligoland was indeed a sacred and holy place, and is the only place in the world that a certain type of blood red silex, or flint, can be found.

Also that Heligoland is a remnant of Doggerland, believed by some to be part of Atlantis, and that it once connected Great Britain to Continental Europe.

Perhaps now the remaining remnants of which are beneath the North Sea and part of the Heligoland Bight?

We are told that Doggerland was said to have been submerged beneath the southern North Sea 8,000 years ago after the Storegga landslide, which took place off the coast of Norway between Bergen and Trondheim, and generated a tsunami strong- enough, and high-enough, to take out what was called the “True Heart of Europe.”

But could this event have taken place much more recently than thousands of years ago by a deliberately-caused cataclysm?

Another viewer left a comment with lyrics from a song by Massive Attack in their 2010 Album, “Heligoland.”

These lyrics were from the song “Saturday Come Slow”:

In the limestone caves
In the south west lands
What towns in the kingdom
Beneath us understand?

Is Humanity under Massive Attack by dark forces antithetical to organic life and goodness intent on taking over the Earth and everything on it?

I definitely think so.

Next I am going to take a look at Poland’s Hel Peninsula.

The Hel Peninsula is a 22-mile, or 35-kilometer, -long sandbar peninsula in the northern part of Poland separating the Bay of Puck from the Baltic Sea.

The Bay of Puck is described as a shallow western branch of the Bay of Gdansk with an average depth of 7-feet, or 2-meters, to 20-feet, or 6-meters.

It is only available for the use of small fishing boats and yachts.

Perhaps yet another place where land is submerged?

There is an abandoned and derelict “torpedo test facility” in the Bay of Puck that the Germans used for their torpedo tests.

Known locally as “Torpedownia…”

…the Germans fired their “test torpedoes” at Jastarnia and Jurata on the Polish Hel Peninsula between 1942 and 1945.

The Polish Hel Peninsula is a popular tourist destination in the present-day, with a road and railroad, and one-busline, until recently designated by the number “666,” running along the peninsula from the mainland to to the town of Hel at the furthest point.

Since June 24th of 2023, a little over a week ago from the time I am doing the research for this post, the number of the busline has been changed to “669” after public outcry.

So here we have a great example of numerology and negative and positive meanings.

The number sequence of “666” is most strongly associated with its negative occult meaning used to signify the devil, the antichrist, and evil in general.

What is less well known is that the number sequence “666” has positive meanings when you see it pop-up somewhere in your life, like the one listed here among others: Reflect – It’s time to wake-up to your higher spiritual truth.

But since we are talking about places actually named “Hel,” one more thing before I move on from here.

The Hel Peninsula and Bay of Puck are part of Poland’s Puck County.

What intrigues about the name of this place is that a “Puck” was a creature in European folklore that presented as a domestic and nature sprite, demon, or fairy.

Pucks started showing up in Shakespeare and other literature of the Early Modern Era in Europe starting in the 1500s in our historical narrative.

They were spirits that were both helpful and mischievous at the same time. For example, they would assist with chores in a household, and if something displeased them, they would undo the work they had done.

Interestingly, they still show up as characters in literature or other media to this day, like in the 2109 Amazon series “Carnival Row.”

I don’t know. Nothing would surprise me, so this just might be another connection to the subject matter of this post.

These are some other places named Hel or Hell on Earth.

There is a Hell in the Nord-Trondelag county of Norway.

Hell is located the short-distance of 16-miles, or 25-kilometers, due east of Trondheim, Norway’s third-largest city.

Hell is situated on a railway junction where the longest railroad line in Norway, the Nordland Line, running between Trondheim and Bodo for a distance of 453-miles, or 729-kilometers, branches off from the Merakerbanen between Trondheim and Strolien, Sweden.

Otherwise, at a superficial glance, there is not much in Hell, Norway, the town where Hell freezes over, with the town’s name being the main tourist attraction.

But on closer examination, I found a number of interesting things, starting with the.road-racing circuit in Hell, the Lankebanen, which is used for a variety of motorsports.

The finding of the road-racing track, also called a “road-racing circuit,” led me to take a closer look at what else is in the vicinity of Hell, Norway, because I have consistently found race-tracks in close proximity to, and in geometric relationship with, airports all over the world, and one of the components I have looked at in compiling evidence for all of the infrastructure of the Earth functioning as part of a circuit board designed by the original advanced world wide civilization as a free-energy-generating grid system.

Trondheim Airport is located 1.7-miles, or 1.72-kilometers from the Hell Railroad Station, with two elliptical tracks nearby a short-distance in linear alignment to the airport, one to the northeast, and one to the southeast.

The Airport is located 3.4-miles, or 5.4-kilometers, from the Lankebanen road-racing circuit, which is slightly to the southwest of the airport.

Just to the east of the Lankebanen are two more racing circuits – one is Hell Motorsports and the other is the Lanke Travbane for horse-racing.

To put this into context, I have found the same things in cities all over the Earth, finding the exact same configuration across countries and continents.

The mouth of the snaky, S-shaped Stjordalselva River is located between Hell and Stjordalshausen.

Along with finding the same s-shaped river bends all over the world…

…I am also finding that railroads and roads typically run along these s-shaped river-bends, like the Meraker Line Railway and European Route E14 in this part of the world…

…a subject which I explored in-depth in North America not long ago, finding the co-location of railroads, rivers, canals, waterfalls, historic highways, and powerplants all across the continent in all directions.

Waterfalls on the Stjordalselva River include the Nustadfossen; Turifossen; and Dalamofossen situated around the train destination of Meraker.

Waterfalls on tributaries of the Stjordalselva River include the Storfossen and the Sonfossen.

Interesting to note there are powerplants all throughout this region…

…including the Julfoss Power Station in Hell itself.

I first encountered Trondheim doing research on a major long-distance alignment of cities and places going eastwards across Europe from Cape Farewell at the southern tip of Greenland which can be found in ” Bonanza! Correlation of Mines & Minerals to the Earth’s Grid System – Pt 2 Cape Farewell to the Maldives.”

A couple of points I wish to bring forward from this research are as follows.

The first thing is that Hell was directly on this alignment as it is a short-distance due east of Trondheim, though I was not aware of that information until I did the research for this post.

Another thing is that during World War II, Trondheim was occupied by Nazi Germany from the day that the Germans invaded neutral Norway on April 9th of 1940 on the pretext that Norway needed protection from British and French interference, and like Denmark and the Channel Islands, the Nazis occupied Norway for 5-years, until the end of the war in Europe, in May of 1945.

The last thing I want to mention is that Trondheim was originally known as Nidaros.

Trondheim is the seat of the Lutheran Diocese of Nidaros, and the Nidaros Cathedral is the national sanctuary of Norway and is the traditional location of the consecration of new kings of Norway, and is considered the northernmost medieval cathedral in the world.

It was said to have been built in the years between 1070 and 1300.

For similarity of appearance, here is a comparison of the Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim in the top pictures, and the Victoria Terminus Railway Station in Mumbai, which used to be Bombay, India, pictured in the bottom photos, and said to have been built by the British in India between 1878 and 1888.

When I started doing the research for Hell in Norway, I came across the Hell in Michigan, another place where Hell freezes over.

The Hell in Michigan is an unincorporated community on Lake Patterson Road, located 15-miles, or 24-kilometers, northwest of Ann Arbor, and 3-miles, or 4.8-kilometers, southwest of Pinckney.

Ann Arbor is the location of the University of Michigan, which was first established in 1817 as the “Catholepistemiad,” said to translate roughly to the “School of Universal Knowledge,” under an Act of the Michigan Territory.

The name changed to the University of Michigan by another Act of the Michigan Territory in 1821.

For comparison of similarity of appearance of college architecture around the world, along with the University of Michigan on the top left, here is Korea University in Seoul on the bottom left, which was established in 1905; the University of Sydney in Australia, established in 1850; and the Trinity College of Cambridge University in England, said to have been founded in 1546 by King Henry VIII.

These are a few of many examples of the same style of architecture found all over the world for colleges and universities.

What makes more sense.

There was a universal building template used for building colleges and universities all over the world over the course of centuries.

Or…

This architecture was built by one and the same worldwide civilization.

So, just a short-distance from the world-renowned research university in Ann Arbor, the little community of Hell definitely has its own vibe going on.

You can stop at “Screams Ice Cream from Hell” for a treat if you go to the visit there.

You can even get married in Hell, if you dare, at Hell’s “Chapel of Love.”

So, what else is here besides hell-themed tourist attractions?

Well, there’s the Pinckney State Recreation Area, an 11,000-acre, or 4,452-hectare park consisting of a chain of lakes, rolling hills, and numerous outdoor recreational opportunities.

The landscape is described as a “terminal moraine area formed during the last glaciation period.”

First of all, moraine is defined as “a mass of rocks and sediments carried down and deposited by a glacier,” and terminal moraine is defined as “a moraine deposited at the point of furthest advance of a glacier or ice sheet.”

But I don’t buy what they are selling us with the glaciation and ice age explanation for places like this.

It’s hard to find a good picture looking on-line, but this view of a place on one of the hiking trails there looks like it might have something rock-solid just underneath the surface of the water.

This is where field research is so important, because when you go to a place in person and know what to look for, it can yield a treasure trove of information just waiting to be found.

Sir Charles Lyell was a Scottish geologist who was said to have demonstrated the power of known natural causes in explaining Earth’s history.

In his books, “The Principles of Geology,” published in three volumes between 1830 and 1833, he presented the idea that the Earth was shaped by the same natural processes that are still operating today at similar intensities, and a s such a proponent of “Uniformitarianism,” a gradualistic view of natural laws and processes occuring at the same rate now as they have always done.

This theory was in contrast to “catastrophism,” or theory that Earth has been shaped by sudden, short-lived violent events of a worldwide nature.

At any rate, as a result of Lyell’s work, the glacial theory gained acceptance between 1839 and 1846, and we are told during that time, scientists started to recognize the existence of ice ages.

The concept of “glacial erratic” has come to be the explanation for large masses of rock that have been moved by glacier ice and lodged in glacier valleys or scattered over hills.

Examples include the rectangular Madison Boulder in New Hampshire, which is considered to be one of the largest glacial erratics in the world, at 83-feet, or 25-meters, long, and 23-feet, or 7-meters, high, and upwards of 5,000 tons, with one part of it said to be buried to a depth of up to 12-feet, or 4-meters.

It is interesting to note the number of glacial erratics that end up either perfectly balanced by themselves…

…or as a large block of stone balanced on top of smaller stones.

The same idea is called a dolmen in other parts of the world, and is considered the most common megalithic structure in Europe, believed to be a tomb or burial space.

Next, a few more places that I found that have a “Hel.”

First, there are two places in Pakistan named Hel, one in the Northwest Frontier, and the other in Kashmir.

Since it is hard to find specific information about these “Hels,” I will look at the places where they are found.

First, the North West Frontier in Pakistan, known as Waziristan.

I first encountered Waziristan several years ago tracking cities and places in alignment starting at San Francisco in California.

North and South Waziristan comprise a mountainous region of Pakistan on the country’s border with Afghanistan, and are districts of the Khyber-Pakhtunkwha Province, formerly known as the Northwest Frontier Province.

Historically, the tribal people of this region were considered very tough fighters, having defeated Alexander the Great’s efforts to conquer them, and more recently in history, British efforts to take them over were not as successful as the British would have liked in the Waziristan Campaign of 1936 to 1939 as well, earning the area the nickname of “Hell’s Door-Knocker.”

The Khyber-Pakhtunkwha Province is the location of the Khyber Pass, a mountain pass in the northwest of Pakistan, and an integral part of the ancient Silk Road. A translation is “On the Khyber side of the Land of the Pashtuns.”

This is the Bab-e-Khyber, a gate that stands at the entrance to the Khyber Pass…

…said to have been constructed in 1965.

The turreted and crenellated appearance of the Bab-e-Khyber Gate brought to mind the style of architecture seen on this old Merovingian textile from France on the left, and the Cajun flag of Louisiana on the right.

The Jamrud Fort is adjacent to the Bab-e-Khyber. We are told that the foundation of the fort was laid out by the Sikh General Hari Singh Nalwa on the 18th of December in 1836, and that the fort was completed in 54-days, after Jamrud was lost to the Afghan Durrani Empire and conquered by the Sikh Empire.

This is a screenshot of the Jamrud Fort on Google Earth.

The Jamrud Electrical Grid Station is located very close to Jamrud Fort, and there is at least one other structure with the arrow pointing towards it, and possibly more, that looks like it could be connected to this grid system.

The Pashtun tribal peoples are the primary inhabitants of a region including North and South Waziristan, the Khyber-Pakhtunkwha and Balochistan Provinces of Pakistan, and the Pashtun are also found in Afghanistan, in a region regarded as Pashtunistan, split between two countries since the Durand Line border between the two countries was formed in 1893 after the second Anglo-Afghan War.

The namesake of the line, Sir Henry Mortimer Durand, was a British Diplomat and Civil Servant of the British Raj.

We are told that together with the Afghan Emir, Abdur Rahman Khan, it was established to “fix the limit of their respective spheres of influence and improve diplomatic relations and trade.

Well, that certainly sounds good…but what was really going on here?

The Durand Line cuts through the Pashtunistan and Balochistan regions, politically dividing ethnic Pashtuns and Baloch, who live on both sides of the border.

But, really, why divide a people in this fashion?

The Pashtun are a tribal nation of millions of Afghani and Pakistani Muslims who also have a strong oral tradition that they are descended from a Tribe of Israel, and they refer to themselves as Bani Israel.

Here is an example of a Pashtun textile piece showing the sacred geometric shape of a star tetrahedron in the center, also known as the Star of David…

…and Pashtun lockets with what is best known as the Star of David engraved on them.

But the Star of David is a 2-D representation of the sacred geometric shape of the Human Lightbody, known as the Merkaba.

The Earth’s controllers really did not want to us to know who and what we are, and where we come from, and among other things, hijacked the template of the Children of Israel for themselves.

The other place in Pakistan with a place named Hel is in Azad Kashmir, also known as Azad Jammu and Kashmir, a region administered as a self-governing entity, and the western portion of the larger Kashmir region, which has been disputed between Pakistan and India since 1947.

Azad Kashmir is separated from the Indian Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir by what is called the Line of Control (LoC).

Azad Kashmir has a Parliamentary form of government modelled after that of Great Britain, with a President as its Constitutional Head-of-State, while the Pakistani Prime Minister is its Chief Executive.

And are those three pyramids represented in the bottom third of the government seal?

Hmmm, I wonder.

The capital city of Azad Kashmir is Muzaffarabad, which happens to be located right in-between one of those ubiquitous s-shaped river bends that I mentioned previously.

Major earthquakes occur in Azad Kashmir from time-to-time as it is in a region where the Indian tectonic plate and the Eurasian tectonic plate meet.

One in early October of 2005 near Muzaffarabad devastated the region’s infrastructure and economy, which is still recovering, and killing 100,000 people and displacing 3-million.

The last two locations I am going to look at where the place-name of Hel comes up are both in Belgium, one in the Brabant Province, and the other in the Antwerp Province.

As was the case in Pakistan, I am having difficulty finding specific information about these two “Hels,” so I wil focus on their respective provinces instead.

Brabant was a province of Belgium from 1830 to 1995.

In 1995, it was split into the French-speaking “Walloon Brabant” and the Dutch-speaking “Flemish Brabant.”

The United Kingdom of the Netherlands was created in 1815 as a result of the Congress of Vienna, and different sections of Brabant were shared between modern-day Belgium and The Netherlands.

Brabant was named after the Duchy of Brabant which was part of the Holy Roman Empire.

The Holy Roman Empire ceased to exist after Napoleon defeated Austrian and Imperial forces in the Battle of Austerliz on December 2nd of 1805, and the Holy Roman Empire was dissolved on August 6th of 1806.

Prior to the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire, the imperial throne of the Holy Roman Empire was occupied by the House of Habsburg.

Also called the House of Austria, the House of Habsburg was one of the most distinguished and influential royal houses of Europe.

The Habsburg male line died out in 1740 with the death of Emperor Charles VI, and as a result of the War of Austrian Succession that took place between 1740 and 1748, the Empress Maria-Theresa had to concede Habsburg lands in Austria, Spain, and Italy to other powers as part of the terms of the 1748 Treaty of Aix-La-Chappelle, which also confirmed the right of succession of the German House of Hanover to the British throne.

The Congress of Vienna was said to be one of the most important international conferences in European history.

It was a meeting of ambassadors of European states held in Vienna in Austria between 1814 and 1815 in order to remake Europe after the downfall of Napoleon.

The stated goal was to resize the main powers so they could balance each other and in this way remain at peace, and not simply to restore old boundaries.

As a result of the Congress of Vienna, France lost all of its recent conquests, while Prussia, Austria, and Russia made major territorial gains.

Most of the discussions took place in informal, face-to-face sessions among the ambassadors of Austria, Britain, France, Russia, and sometimes Prussia, with limited or no participation by other delegates.

As such, the so-called Congress of Vienna never met in plenary session, which means a session in which all members of all parties are able to attend.

After the Belgian Revolution of 1830, the southern Netherlands of Central and South Brabant became part of Belgium, and Brabant became the central province of Belgium with Brussels as its capital.

The Revolutions of 1830 took place in France, Belgium, Italy, Brazil, Poland & Switzerland, which was the same year that Bavarian Order of the Illuminati founder Adam Weishaupt died in Gotha, in November.

These 1830 revolutions led to the establishment of Constitutional Monarchies, and the substitution of the concept of popular sovereignty for hereditary right. In France, King Louis-Philippe I of the Habsburg House of Bourbon’s cadet branch of the House of Orleans, was the last King of France, until he was removed as Head-of -State in February of 1848, and marked the foundation of the French Second Republic, and subsequently sparked the Revolutions of 1848.

The 1830 revolutions in Europe also led to Leopold, the son of Duke Francis of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld, becoming Leopold I, the first King of the Belgians, in 1831.

He had strong ties to Great Britain as he had moved there and married Princess Charlotte of Wales in 1816, second-in-line to the British throne after her father the Prince-Regent, who became King George IV.

She is recorded as having died after delivering a stillborn child a year after they were married, leaving King George IV without any legitimate grandchildren.

King George III’s son, the Prince-Regent George’s brother, Prince Edward, ended-up proposing to Leopold’s older sister Victoria, of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld, who were the parents of the future Queen Victoria.

King Leopold I was said to play an important role in the creation of Belgium’s first railroad in 1835 and subsequent industrialization.

We are told that Belgium was the second country in Europe to open a railway and produce locomotives, after a private rail-line opened between Stockton and Darlington in north-east England on September 27th of 1825.

The very old-looking Skerne Bridge was said to have been built in 1825 for the Stockton and Darlington Railroad, and carried the first train on opening day.

It is considered to be the oldest railway bridge in continuous use in the world.

The first stretch of the Belgian Railway network was said to have been completed between northern Brussels and Mechelen in 1835, and was the first steam passenger railway in continental Europe.

By 1836, the line to Antwerp had been completed, and by 1843, four main-lines had been added to the Belgian rail network.

There are 6,893-miles, or 11,903-kilometers, of railroad track in Belgium, which has the greatest mileage of rail per square mile in the world.

So I will end this tour of where there are locations mentioned of a ‘Hel,’ with either one “l” or two, on Earth in the Antwerp Province of Belgium and the city of Antwerp, its capital.

Antwerp Province is the northernmost province of Belgium, and borders on the North Brabant Province of the Netherlands.

Originally named the “Central Brabant Province,” after the Congress of Vienna, it was re-named “Antwerp” in 1830 after the city of Antwerp.

The Province has a transportation network of infrastructure of roads, railroads, canals and rivers, as well as the Port of Antwerp, the economic heart of the province.

The Port of Antwerp is the second-largest port in Europe, after Rotterdam in The Netherlands, and where chemical factories, like those of Bayer and BASF, and Monsanto, which was acquired by Bayer Pharmaceutics and Life Sciences Company in after gaining United States and EU regulatory approvals on June 7th of 2018 for, you guessed it – $66-billion in cash – and Monsanto’s name is no longer used…

…and the Port of Antwerp comprises the second largest Petrochemical industry cluster in the world, after Houston, Texas.

This is the Antwerp Central Rail Station, said to have been built between 1895 and 1905 to replace the original wooden station from 1836.

It was severely damaged by V-2 rockets during World War II.

During World War II, on September 4th of 1944, the British Armored 11th-Division captured the port city of Antwerp intact except for the bridges across the Albert Canal.

Apparently, the retreating Germans blew up these bridges on their way out of town.

Then on October 12th of 1944, Hitler and the German High Command exclusively focused their V-weapon missile attacks on the cities of Antwerp and London, and for a period of 175-days-and-nights, German missile-launching crews fired more than 4,000 V-1s and more than 1,000 V-2s at Greater Antwerp, and Antwerp had become known as the “City of Sudden Death.”

I am sure there is much more to find, as there always is, but I am going to end this post here.

The geographical location of “Heligoland/Helgoland” where I started this journey brought in the Napoleonic Wars; the role of the Revolutions of 1830 and 1848 with the goal of removing the original Royal Houses of Europe; the role of Prgressive youth movements; the origins and interconnections to all of this of the Bavarian Order of the Illuminati and to the House of Saxe Saxe-Coburg and Gotha AKA Windsor.

The geographic locations of two more “Hels” in Belgium brought in more of the story about what happened after the defeat of Napoleon; how one obscure German ducal line managed to replace the original Royal Houses of Europe, and how both of these places were hammered during Europe’s World Wars of the 20th-century, along with Poland’s Hel Peninsula.

The Nazi Germans occupied Norway for almost the entirety of World War II, and the Hell there would have been centrally located and on important transportation routes.

Hell in Michigan doesn’t seem to have quite those connections, but this hell-based tourist attraction it is located quite close to a world-renowned research University and a large recreational area that I have a lot questions about what’s actually there.

Then the wars and conflicts that have taken place after dividing Pakistan and Afghanistan, the connections of the Lost Tribes of Israel found there, and the creation of conflict by dividing the Kashmir region between Pakistan and India, where places named “Hel” are found as well.

In seeking answers to the question “Where is Hel on Earth,” there certainly seem to be correlations between places with “Hel” in the name, and the hellish events of our modern history.
