The Sichuan whipping frog, Boaxing treefrog, or Dugrite's whipping tree frog ("Zhangixalus dugritei") is a frog. It lives in China and Vietnam. People have seen it 10,500 feet above sea level. These frogs live in forests and grassy places high on mountains. It lays eggs in pools and ponds. The female frog makes a white foam nest to lays her eggs. She makes the nest in a mud cave or under moss or plants. After the eggs hatch, the rain pushes the tadpoles into the water. The tadpoles live at the bottom of the pond or pool. People have seen this frog between 1400 and 3200 meters above sea level. Scientists say this frog is not in danger of dying out because there are so many of them alive. Many of the places the frog lives are protected parks, for example Hoang Lien Son National Park and Tay Con Linh II National Park. People sometimes cut down the forests to build farms and get wood. Sometimes people catch this frog to eat.
The Royal Danish Navy is the sea-based branch of the Danish Defence force. It is mainly responsible for maritime defence and maintaining Danish territorial waters including the Faroe Islands and Greenland. The maritime traditions go back to the 9th century when the Vikings had small but well-organised fleets. From 1509 to 1814, when Denmark was in a union with Norway, the Danish Navy was part of the Dano-Norwegian Navy. It was an important force then. It played an important part in the colonisation of Africa and the Caribbean. During the Napoleonic Wars the British were afraid that the Danish navy would be used against them. They attacked it in 1801 and captured it in 1807. It took a long time to rebuild the navy.  In World War II 32 ships were deliberately sunk in 1943 to prevent the Germans from using them. During the Cold War, the Danish navy was rebuilt and modernised. The main job was to repel a possible invasion from the Warsaw Pact. Now there are fewer but larger vessels able to operate for long periods at sea.

The warships carried up to 30 musketeers, a large number of rowers and either 6 or 12-pounder cannons or no guns at all. There are now 130 ships.

Gion worship, or Gion shinkō in Japanese, is a form of Shintoism that used to center around the deity Gozu Tenno. However, during the Meiji era when there was a separation of Shintoism and Buddhism, the Japanese government required that the focus of Gion worship shift to the deity Susanoo. The primary shrines of the Gion faith are Yasaka Shrine located in Kyoto and Hiromine Shrine in Hyogo Prefecture.. Gozu Tenno was a deity originally rooted in Buddhist-style Onmyōdō and is believed to have served as the guardian deity of Jetavana, the monastery where Buddha is believed to have studied. In China, Gozu Tenno was influenced by Taoism, and in Japan, he merged with Susanoo, the Shinto Kami. Both Gozu Tenno and Susanoo were considered plague gods, which led to their association. In Japan, Gozu Tenno was also believed to be the Buddha Bhaisajyaguru. The description of Gozu Tenno in Shinnaiden is particularly prominent. The Gion faith originated in the Heian period with the purpose of preventing epidemics by pacifying the god of pestilence. In the late 10th century, people in Kyoto started holding an annual festival at Yasaka Shrine (then known as Gion Shrine), which eventually became the famous Gion festival. By the Middle Ages, the Gion faith had spread throughout Japan, and Gion shrines or Gyozo tenno shrines were established to enshrine Gyozo tenno. The Goryokai or Tenno Festival was held as a ritual procession during this time. During the Meiji era, the government implemented a policy of separating Shinto and Buddhism, known as Shinbutsu Bunri. As a result, many Shinto shrines that had previously been associated with Buddhist practices and deities were forced to disassociate themselves from Buddhism. In the case of the Gion Shrine and the Gozu Tenno Shrine, they had to change their names and say Gozu tenno was Susanoo. This was a part of a larger effort to promote Shinto as the national religion of Japan and distance
