Japan History

Japan Culture

Japan is a country that remained completely blocked off to any foreigner until the 1500s, when missionaries and traders started to arrive from Europe. At that time, Japan was ruled by the shogun, warlords who were supposed to respect the Emperor. The most famous shogun is Tokugawa Ieyasu, who united most of the country and clarified the classes, as well as subordinated the warlords (daimyo). He further established his reign in Edo (modern Tokyo), purposefully away from the Emperor in Kyoto. Due to the spread of Christianity in the South of Japan, the Tokugawa shogun evicted all foreigners who refused to disassociate religion from trade – this meant everyone but the Dutch left, and even then, their base was a man-made island off the port of Nagasaki. Travelling abroad was also forbidden to the Japanese.

Geisha are famous female traditional entertainers, who sing, dance, play traditional Japanese musical instruments and engage their clients with interesting conversation. Today there are still some active Geishain places such as Kyoto and Kanazawa.

Samurai were a traditional warrior class in pre-industrial Japan, who were easily recognised as they were the only men allowed to carry two swords. Samurai were committed to a single daimyo (normally a wealthy leader).
