IntroductionFeudal Japan (1185-1868)was a time of vicious warfare as many individuals fought to rule Japan and cure the unorganised political structure that the country currently possessed. The culture was exotic and cut off from the rest of the world. Religion was prominent and was starting to be influenced by Portuguese missionaries. To end the political warfare, the Tokugawa Shogunate was put into place, a political dynasty which would last for two hundred and fifty years. Feudal Japan was an era filled with culture, violence and change and an era which made Japan famous. (To watch a short introductory video click here.)
