Mount Fuji is an important symbol of Japan. The seas surrounding Japan allowed for easier ship travel and helped develop Japan's independent society with its own religion, art, literature, and government. The ocean also kept Japanese people isolated from other cultures. Japan consists of a chain of islands stretching north to south in the Pacific Ocean, including Hokkaido, Shikoku, and Kyushu. Shrines were holy places and Kamakura was a small seaside settlement. Daimyo ruled areas and were headed by powerful military lords.

19.3 japan returns to isolation
After a period of civil war and conflict between feudal lords, Japan transitioned to a new feudal system under a unified military rule. Powerful warlords known as daimyo seized control of territories and offered protection in exchange for loyalty. Ultimately, Tokugawa Ieyasu defeated his rivals to become shogun, the supreme military commander, and established the Tokugawa shogunate that would rule Japan for over 250 years. During this period, Japan adopted a closed country policy aimed at limiting foreign influence.

Here are two ways Japanese and European feudalism were similar and two ways they were different:
Similarities:
1. Both had a pyramid social structure with lords at the top granting land to vassals who owed military service. In Japan it was emperors, shoguns, daimyo, and samurai while in Europe it was monarchs, lords, and knights.
2. Both had a warrior class at the top of society whose code of conduct emphasized bravery, loyalty and honor. For samurai it was bushido and for knights it was chivalry.
Differences:
1. In Japan, the emperor was purely a figurehead while in
Early Japanese Society
Japan is an island nation located in the Pacific Ocean that developed a unique culture influenced by, but distinct from, China and Korea. The early Japanese society consisted of indigenous Ainu people and Yamato people who lived in farming villages ruled by clans and followed the traditional Shinto religion. Over time, Japanese culture was further shaped by adopting Chinese writing system, Confucian ideals of family and social structure, and Buddhism. The Heian period saw the growth of elegant art and literature at the imperial court. Later, a military-led feudal system emerged with samurai warriors serving powerful shoguns and daimyo lords. This period was extended by Japan's self-imposed isolation from the 1630s onward
Chapter 14 Notes
Early Japan consisted of isolated farming villages along the coasts. The Yayoi culture introduced rice farming and metalworking between 300 BC and AD 300. Society was organized into clans led by warrior chiefs. In AD 500, the Yamato clan brought Japan under its rule, establishing an imperial line. Prince Shotoku introduced reforms in AD 600 based on Chinese Confucian ideals, including a constitution and bureaucracy. Japan developed its own unique culture and the Shinto religion, believing natural spirits called kami inhabited all things.
Japanese HistoryANCIENT JAPANThe First JapaneseHum.docx
1) Ancient Japan was first inhabited over 30,000 years ago via a land bridge from Asia. The Jomon period from 8,000 BC to 300 BC saw the development of pottery and shellfish gathering. From 300 BC to 300 AD, the Yayoi period brought rice farming and the use of bronze and iron tools.
2) The Kofun period from 300 AD to 710 AD saw a more unified Japan with powerful families buried in large tombs. Buddhism was introduced in 552 AD. In the 7th century, the emperor became more powerful and the capital was moved to Nara in 710, establishing a centralized state.
3) The Heian period from 794 to 1
Japan2
Japan's geography influenced its history in several ways:
1) As a nation of islands, it was able to remain isolated from other countries when it chose but was still near enough to China to borrow from its civilization.
2) Its mountainous terrain and appreciation for nature shaped Japanese culture, religion, and arts which emphasized simplicity and natural beauty.
3) Its isolation allowed feudal systems and samurai warriors to develop with their own cultural traditions and codes of conduct before eventually closing itself off from the world during the Tokugawa period.
Japan1
- Early Japan was inhabited by the Ainu people, who were later displaced by migrants from mainland Asia around 500 CE. This led to the rise of the first dominant clan called the Yamato.
- In the 6th century, Prince Shotoku established Buddhism as the official religion and used Chinese models to reorganize the government. Major reforms transformed Japan into a centralized state modeled on Chinese bureaucracy and institutions.
- The Heian period saw the imperial court move to Kyoto and a period of relative peace and cultural flowering. However, powerful noble families emerged who controlled the political realms, weakening central authority.
Ch.15 Japan
Japan's early societies were influenced by geography and neighbors. Clans organized society and emperors rose to rule. Later, Japan adopted Chinese writing and Confucianism [1]. The Heian period saw a cultural golden age until samurai gained power. Samurai followed an honorable code as shoguns ruled. Eventually, order broke down until strong leaders reunified Japan under the Tokugawa shogunate [2].

Japan chapter 12
Japan is an isolated island nation that developed a unique culture influenced by its geography. The Japanese believed gods protected them from invasions, as evidenced by divine winds that destroyed Mongol fleets. They developed their own writing system adapted from Chinese characters. Shintoism, which venerates nature spirits, became the dominant religion. The indigenous Ainu people were eventually displaced from northern Japan as the nation grew more homogeneous under Japanese rule. Natural disasters like tsunamis and earthquakes shaped Japanese beliefs and traditions around seasonal celebrations.
Japanese History
1) Japan developed a feudal system in the 12th century as the imperial government grew weak and regional warlords (daimyo) gained power. Daimyo ruled over farmers and were served by loyal samurai warriors.
2) From 1560-1600, three powerful daimyo - Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa Ieyasu - began unifying Japan through military conquest and political alliances. Tokugawa Ieyasu established the Tokugawa Shogunate in 1603.
3) The Tokugawa Shogunate ruled Japan for over 250 years through a policy of isolationism, banning Christianity and limiting foreign contact to
JAPAN
The document summarizes the creation myth of Japan according to the Kojiki, in which the male god Izanagi and female god Izanami create the first islands of Japan by stirring the ocean with a spear. They then perform rituals to bear children and give birth to the eight main islands and other gods, but Izanami dies giving birth to the fire god. The document then provides historical overviews of classical, medieval, and modern Japan as well as details on prefectures, languages, religions, arts, festivals, cuisine, sports, clothing, and important events such as the attack on Pearl Harbor and the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
EPQ Presentation
The document is a presentation by Melissa Parnaby about her EPQ project exploring the impact of religion on Japanese culture today. She became interested in the topic after living in Japan and realizing she did not understand Japanese religion. Her project aims to examine religion's involvement in cultural history and traditions. Some key findings from her research include: Shintoism is inherently Japanese with nature-based beliefs; Buddhism was introduced in the 6th century and now complements Shintoism; the Imperial family is seen as direct descendants of the sun goddess Amaterasu in Shinto mythology; samurai embraced Zen Buddhism which aligned with their values; and Shinto and Buddhist festivals are important cultural traditions but now treated more as cultural rather than religious
Japan's culture presentation until 15th century
Japan developed independently as an island nation, borrowing influences from China such as writing, Buddhism, and other cultural aspects. The geography of Japan, being mountainous and islandic, shielded it from invasion and influenced its development of rice farming and fishing. Early Japanese history saw the rise of Shintoism and the Yamato clan, with the first emperor established in 660 BC. Feudal Japan emerged in the 9th century as private armies and powerful landowners grew, with samurai developing a code of conduct known as bushido.
