Janissaries and Chinese Eunuchs

Eunuchs and Janissaries In the ancient world, both the east and the west , they had their special system. It depended on the culture of these countries and what they used to. For example, in ancient Chinese, the court was full of maids, princess, concubines and the queen. But there were plenty of works which was too dirty or too hard for maids to do.They needed men. Not only the high-blooded was super important, but also they might influence the power if they colluded with each others. the emperor certainly could not stand them. So he made a decision that castrating the eunuchs. after hundreds of years, there were a good deal of eunuchs that tried to rebel, tried to rob or steal the power. Eventually emperor forbid eunuchs to ask anything about politics. It did work. Janissaries was also the similar group which worked for emperor. However, it recruited the children from 7 to 10 years old by devshirmes. They must be trained for more than 10 years and then they fight as the strongest and honestest army instead of doing dirty and heavy work in court. The reason why they are the honestest people was not only the ten-year train but also the agreeable reward. It seems that every officers, provincial governors even the vizier, one of the powerful jobs chose their generation from Janissaries. Such a considerable bonus was great enough to make Janissaries do their best for their lord. However, the ages from 7 to 20 are supposed to be the most wonderful memory for each person. Decshirmes broke them and take back a bloody battleground. I can not stand it. Although eunuchs can not have fun with their dream lover, but that was their choices. They wanted to get a life without poor .Those were what they paid for. Janissaries can choose nothing. It was unfair. It was not humanistic.
