"Uh. No. I forgot."

Cam hands him a little notepad.

Scribbling questions! And also asking Cam if there's any Naruto forgot. (He's forgotten about asking the fox if jinchuuriki-ness messes with clones.)

Fortunately Cam takes notes all the time and can retrieve this question.

Then he'll have a complete list he can even add onto later.

"Can I get you anything else?"

"Uh, those book and documentary things? If the translation's working?"

"The translation ranges from acceptable to hilarious! Here's a selection, I've skimmed the writing and spot-checked the movies but that's all so if something's real weird email me and I'll translate it less dumbly." Chip for his computer.

"Sweet, thanks!" And he already knows the computers duplicate just fine with his clones

"Enjoy!"

"I'll try!"

"Oh, is there anything I can help you with?"

"I'll let you know if anything comes to mind!"

"Alright! See you around!"

And he's off. (He makes a number of clones equal to the new things on his computer, unless that number's over a hundred, to start sorting through stuff.)

There are forty books and thirty-seven movies and miniseries.

Seventy seven clones is totally reasonable for at least a first pass! He'll probably have to go back over stuff with smaller clone sets, but that can be later.

They are on assorted topics. Some of the documentaries are missing scenes but it's not too conspicuous.

Those feel a bit like they're skipping around but maybe they're just not super well made, so he doesn't think much of it.

Cam's homeworld had a rich and elaborate history with lots of stuff going on! Magic was not common knowledge until the early 21st century, when an unknown party coordinated a lot of daeva to reveal themselves all across the globe, ending material scarcity more or less overnight. Trends have been mostly toward expanding-circle-of-concern liberalization, to the point where it is now illegal to farm most animals and so on.

Weird!

What's there on governments? Or even just histories of war-torn areas - anywhere else had a child soldier problem that's mentioned?

Oh yes, there's stuff about governments (most places are democracies of one stripe or another now; this entire miniseries titled Rule By The People is about that transition!), and about war (lot of child soldiers during this period in Africa, lots of moral outrage about it).

He's not expecting to learn every comparative advantage of a military dictatorship versus a democracy and how to transition from the first to the second from only seventy seven things selected for basic introductions but he's trying to take notes to that effect. And also on how the child soldier thing was stopped, and how wars were stopped.

Mostly the evil warlords who used child soldiers were defeated and rule of law firmed up in their locations and that seems to have sorted it. There's a lot of different theories and narrativizations about the decline of war; the last war on the planet was a long-delayed-through-caution-learned-from-prior-similar-looking-wars intervention on a country called North Korea which appears to have been very bad.

So sounds like a problem more with like bandits for that world's child soldiers, than institutionalized low ages... Maybe he can ask Cam for similar stuff with children being pressured into not-war stuff at young ages? Child soldiers being wide-spread might rely on quirks about chakra, but maybe there was institutionalized child labor and child marriages that got solved?

He takes notes on the different theories, and tries to figure which ones seem to apply best to his world. It's slow work.

When Cam gets this request he can indeed forward Naruto some books about child marriages and child labor! Child labor appears to have phased out when compulsory education phased in; the modern day trend is actually about trying to get children more ability to do meaningful work if that's what they want as opposed to what's in their parents' economic interests while protecting them from exploitation. Child marriage is all tangled up with a bunch of religion stuff.

He thinks the child soldier thing is possibly a combination of 'economic interests' and 'deep-set cultural tradition' by now, so he'll look at both those solutions. But it does sound like 'improving economic situations and pushing back minimum age for working' was decent with labor issues...
