sun yat-sen

Share definition
A Chinese physician, writer, philosopher, calligrapher and revolutionary, the first president and founding father of the Republic of China. Sun played an instrumental role in the overthrow of the Qing dynasty during the years leading up to the Xinhai Revolution. He was appointed to serve as Provisional President of the Republic of China when it was founded in 1912. He later co-founded the Nationalist Party of China, serving as its first leader. Sun was a uniting figure in post-Imperial China, and he remains unique among 20th-century Chinese politicians for being widely revered amongst the people from both sides of the Taiwan Strait.

Although Sun is considered to be one of the greatest leaders of modern China, his political life was one of constant struggle and frequent exile. After the success of the revolution, he quickly resigned from his post as President of the newly founded Republic of China due to Beiyang Clique pressure, and led successive revolutionary governments as a challenge to the warlords who controlled much of the nation. Sun did not live to see his party consolidate its power over the country during the Northern Expedition. His party split into two factions after his death.

Sun's chief legacy resides in his developing of the political philosophy known as the Three Principles of the People: nationalism (non-ethnic, independence from imperialist domination), democracy, and the people's livelihood (free trade and modern tax reform)

However with 'Side yat'. This is a girl to which a male counter part has some sort of relationship with, however she is more a piece on the side, or a back up if you will, incase his first yat of choice decides to leave him.
This 'Side yat' does not really mean anything to the man, and is just used as a "little bit on the side".

Uresei Yatsura

Share definition
an extremely popular and iconic anime series that ran from 1981 to 1986. It was created by Rumiko Takahashi (her first work), who is later known for creating Ranma 1/2 and Inuyasha. It revolves around a perverted, dickish and unlucky teenager named Ataru who is forced into competing in a tag game with an invading alien species known as the Oni (a play on the mythical Japanese monsters), if he wins Earth will be saved but if he loses Earth will be destroyed. The target in this game is the beautiful and sexy Oni princess Lum. Ataru's then-girlfriend Shinobu promises to marry him if he wins. Ataru manages to catch Lum by the horns and he yells out that he can get married; Lum misinterprets this as a proposal and accepts Ataru as her husband. Ataru rejects Lum but Lum forces herself on him constantly, then moves into his house and always follows him around. Lum will violently electrocute Ataru whenever he flirts or looks at other girls which is why Ataru always tries to ditch her. Other characters in the series include Shinobu, Ataru's loveless ex, Mendo, Ataru's nemesis and a filthy rich snob who wants Lum, Cherry, an ugly and annoying monk who is always forecasting doom, Ran, a psycho alien redhead who is Lum's friend, Ten, Lum's pyromaniac baby cousin. The series is seriously weird, painfully funny, random, confusing and crazy filled with kooky sci-fi gadgets, hot girls, freaky aliens and parodies of Japanese culture, each episode is weirder and crazier than the next.
Did you see that episode of Uresei Yatsura when Lum got bit by a cow and her horns kept growing bigger and bigger.
