History
Prehistoric history
Human migration arrived in the southern coasts of Bareland around 15,000 years ago, marking the beginning of Southern Bareland Paleolithic. They were semi-sedentary hunter-gatherers whose culture were characterized by pit dwelling and rudimentary agriculture. Clay vessels from the period are among the oldest surviving examples of pottery.
The Hinomoto-speaking Dae people entered the region intermingling with the local population. The following period saw the introduction of practices including wet-rice farming, a new style of pottery, and metallurgy. According to historical records, Emperor Tetsu founded a kingdom in southern Bareland in 130 BC, beginning a continuous imperial line.
Classical Daemyo
Daeho Period
During the Daeho period, the southern territory of the continent gradually unified under a single polity, the State of Daeho. It was established in 130 BC by Emperor Tetsu. The center of the unified state was Daeho in present-day Daehan. The rulers of the Daeho state were a hereditary line of emperors who still reign the country of Daemyo. The rulers of Daeho extended their power across Daemyo through military conquest, but their preferred method of expansion was to convince local leaders to accept their authority in exchange for positions of influence in the government. Many of the powerful local clans who joined the Daeho state became known as the uji.
Sengoku Period
The Sengoku or the Warring States Period (1334-1511), was a tumultuous era in the history of the country, marked by widespread civil war, political instability, and social upheaval. Emperor Yuto (reigned 1310–1334) was a beloved and charismatic ruler who sought to strengthen the central authority of the Daemyo monarchy. His reign was marked by economic prosperity, cultural flourishing, and the expansion of Yaoist teachings, which became deeply intertwined with the empire’s identity. However, Yuto’s sudden death in 1334 without an heir created a power vacuum that plunged the empire into chaos.
The absence of a clear successor to Emperor Yuto led to a bitter struggle among the Four Great Clans namely the Jin, Takeda, Shimazu, and Mori. Each clan sought to assert its dominance, leading to the outbreak of the Hakutō War in 1334. Empress Aiko, the widow of Emperor Yuto, became a central figure in the early stages of the conflict. Though she had no official authority to rule, Aiko’s intelligence, diplomatic skill, and deep connection to the people made her a unifying force. Her efforts to mediate between the warring factions and protect the legacy of her late husband earned her the admiration of many, but also made her a target of rival clans.
The Sengoku Period, also known as the Warring States Period, was a time of intense civil war and political fragmentation in the Empire of Daemyo. It began in 1334 with the sudden death of Emperor Yuto, who left no heir, sparking the Hakutō War among the Four Great Clans—the Jin Clan, Takeda Clan, Shimazu Clan, and Mori Clan.
The Hakutō War ended in a stalemate in 1347, plunging Daemyo into the Age of Warlords, where regional lords carved out feudal domains and fought for dominance. This era saw technological advancements, the rise of Yaoist influence, and the emergence of legendary figures like Lord Takeda Shingen and Lord Shimazu Yumi.
The period concluded with the Unification Wars (1489–1511), led by Emperor Ryujin I, a descendant of the Jin Clan. Ryujin I defeated rival clans, recaptured the capital, Daehan, and restored the monarchy in 1511, ending the Sengoku Period and ushering in the Era of Restoration. The Sengoku Period left a lasting legacy, shaping Daemyo’s identity through its emphasis on unity, resilience, and loyalty.
Rengo Period
The Rengo Period began with the restoration of the monarchy by Emperor Ryujin I, a royal descendant from the Jin clan. He defeated his rival, Shimazu Ryoken, in the Battle of Daehan in 1511. He ended the Sengoku Period and ushered an era of rapid growth.
