The Biggest Karate Myth DEBUNKED

Karate was NOT invented by farmers in Okinawa to defend against Japanese samurai. Neither was Kobudo. Martial arts was a privilege that only upper classes studied in Ryukyu kingdom. This included both armed and unarmed fighting methods from China. But everything changed in 1879, when Okinawa became a Japanese prefecture and the old caste system was abolished.
