The Oriho Regime and the Edo Shogunate: the Warring States Period (Kodansha History of Japan 07)

This is the end of troubled times and the beginning of two hundred years of peace and prosperity. Since the Onin Rebellion, the flames of war on the Japanese archipelago have been burning for a hundred years. With the destruction of countless old things, the birth of new things, social transformation, and the rise of countless heroes. Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa Ieyasu came to power one after another, defining the development direction of this era. _X000D_ Oda Nobunaga took the lead in raising troops to unify the world, building cities, and promulgating mercantile policies, but he died before his ambition was fulfilled. Toyotomi Hideyoshi replaced him, established the Kanbai regime, implemented land inspection and land reform, but he was only the leader of one generation. The troubled times ended at the hands of Tokugawa Ieyasu, the Edo shogunate was established, and the peaceful age came. At the same time, people formed groups to resist authoritarianism and became a force that cannot be ignored, secretly influencing the direction of history. _X000D_ This volume is based on an era of increasingly turbulent world structure and frequent exchanges between different cultural circles. It interprets the behavioral logic of three generations of hegemons from an international perspective, strives to restore the true character of the characters, and analyzes the inevitability of the Japanese archipelago from division to reunification. _X000D_
