A term referring to the ghettos of New York City's Staten Island district. The term was made famous by rap group Wu-Tang Clan whom hail from the areas (most of the members do any way). By far most, if not all of the "slums of Shaolin" can be found on the boroughs ruff and tumble North Shore. Common characteristics that can be found in the neighborhoods considered the "slums of Shaolin" are drugs, crime, and poverty amongst others.

Get the Slums Of Shaolin mug.Kung Fu is Chinese term for "martial art," it can also be called "Wu Shu." The holy Shaolin temple of the Buddhism was established about 1600 years ago on the mountain of Sung. It was the symbol of Buddhism power in China, and it also represented the ultimate domination of Buddhism over other religions in the next 1000 years in China. Shaolin temple was built during the feudal age when warlords divided and ruled each region of China separately. It was the time when murderers, bandits, and thieves were commonplace. In order to repel threats from outside world, the high priests of Shaolin temple research and devised many unique and powerful martial arts; monks were trained with martial arts as protector of holiness (at that time, all those that opposed buddhism principles were said to be "unholy"). Legend has that Shaolin temple devised powerful techniques such that allow people to punch through concrete wall, to regenerate and heal at faster rate, and to walk on the surface of water like dragonfly.
All these martial arts have come together as what we called "Shaolin Kung Fu." However, after centuries of warfare and disasters, much of Shaolin Kung Fu were swept away and forgotten. What we are learning now, the modern Shaolin Kung Fu, is the remnant of this ancient martial arts that once shaken the foundation of the world of martial art in the far east. Although Shaolin Kung Fu had lost it former glory long time ago, it still remains as one of the most prominent and most powerful martial arts exist in the world today. Martial arts like Karate, Judo, and Tai Kwan Do are actually variants of the techniques that originated from Shaolin Kung Fu. Suffice to say, no other martial arts in the world is as rich in techniques and as effective as the Shaolin Kung Fu.

Get the Sihavong mug.Shao Kahn was an advisor to the dragon king, however he poisoned him and took over his place. Shao Kahn was now the emperor of "Outworld", one of the many realms in Mortal Kombat. He is a brillant leader but very cruel and merciless. His biggest accomplishment is perhaps taking control of Edenia (Another realm) and merging it with Outworld. His next interest was earthrealm and sent Shang Tsung to take over this realm by using Mortal Kombat. With Goro, a shokan prince, Outworld won 9 mortal kombats tournaments meaning one more would allow Shao Kahn to take over Earthrealm.
However the shaolin monk, Liu Kang defeated both Goro and Shang Tsung. Irritated at Shang Tsung, he was convinced of luring the earthrealm fighters to outworld while Shang Tsung and his servants would ressurect queen sindel that suicided herself when she was Shao Kahn wife, refusing to be enslaved. Liu Kang fought Kintaro and the emperor Shao Kahn. Despise how incredibly powerful Shao Kahn was, he was defeated. However queen Sindel was ressurected and Shao Kahn went to Earthrealm to take her. By doing this, Earthrealm became fused with Outworld and all humans had their soul stolen except for a few fighters that were protected by Raiden the god of thunder. Despise how well his plan went, he was once again defeated by Liu Kang and in the process, Earthrealm became back to normal.
Shao Kahn was now weakened and Shang Tsung and Quan Chi formed an alliance and bringing Quan Chi to them they swore allegiance to the emperor only to attack and kill him. However despise their easy victory, they simply killed a clone of Shao Kahn. Shao Kahn was able to flee and saw Goro that was wounded to death. Shao Kahn used the last of his power to save Goro thus gaining Goro trust and once again his allegiance and the shokans.
Most recently he is seen in Mortal Kombat Armageddon making an uneasy alliance with Quan Chi, Shang Tsung and Onaga (The Dragon King). It is not known if this is canon in the serie at the moment.
In gameplay, Shao Kahn is a very powerful foe worthy of being the final boss. His attacks are devastating so much that his lack of motion is easily ignored. Shao Kahn has a "trademark" weapon known as the Wrath Hammer, a sledgehammer that he sometime use in kombat. Another thing that makes him a memorable villain, Shao Kahn taunts his enemies in battles and sometime before and/or after. This is his biggest weakness because he then becomes vulnerable for an attack.
