The most powerful daimyo sometimes achieved the status

of Shogun!

Feudal Japan:________________________________________________________

Samurai:o Daimyo armies were

made up of Samuraio Lived by a strict

code of honor called bushido – (“way of the warrior”)

o Women were allowed to serve as Samurai, but always under a male leader

I’m sorry, I’m having a hard time hearing you over the sound of how

Knights vs. Samurai!o Europeans designed their armor to defeat

swords; the Japanese designed their swords to defeat armor

I’m the tank of the Middle Ages –

slow and clunky, but tough to bring

down!

I’m fast and lightweight, but

that’s because my armor is mostly

for show.

Prepare to have your mind blown:

Take a samurai helmet… Smooth it out a little bit…

Anybody see where this is going?

Feudal Japan:________________________________________________________

Peasants:Divided into several further

classes:o Farmers – most

important because they provided food

o Craftsmen – second because they at least made something

o Merchants – lowest because they profited from the work of others

Don’t hate the player…
