After America Is Gone

Over the last couple of centuries the United States of America has occupied many different lands for varied periods of time. 

Some occupations last only a few weeks, while others last for decades. 

This is a story about the decades long American occupation of the Ogasawara islands in Japan and how it affected its people. 

The story is told by a man named Rance Ohira, a descendant of the first people to inhabit these islands and an American. 

Check out his fascinating story and the history that goes along with it in this awesome video by Rare Earth.
