THIS IS VERY URGENT AND NOT A JOKE! ALSO DON'T GOOF OFF!!!!

I really mean it! What would あなた be able to do if SOPA/TPP censors the internet? What would あなた be able to do if 書く fanfics and drawing fanarts become illegal? What would あなた do if it's illegal to do a cover of your お気に入り song on YouTube? What would あなた do if downloading things from the internet (music, movies, TV episodes, etc) became illegal? What would あなた do if SOPA/TPP wins the war and takes away internet freedom? Net Neutrality is already dead so far, we can't risk the freedom of internet...

The two terms are not interchangeable. This soapbox is intended to help あなた learn to tell the difference if あなた can't already.

The primary difference is in architecture. Castles were built as forts; they have narrow windows, drawbridges, murder holes, etc. Dover 城 is an excellent example. Palaces were built as places of residence so they tend to be much もっと見る sprawling and lacking in drawbridges and barbicans.

Another difference is in location. Palaces were not built in hostile territory since they were intended to be residences whereas castles were used as outposts from which a lord could exercise control of the surrounding territory.

Castles and palaces could either be built in a city- like the one in Canterbury- または in もっと見る remote locations. What person doesn't like to have a place (or several) to retreat to when they need a break from things?

Hopefully this rather short soapbox has been useful!
