Nara Period
The Nara Period marked Japan's
first permanent capital, modelled
after the Chinese capital of Chang'an.Heian Period
The Heian period saw the creation
of hirigana and katakana, allowing
for major literary achievements,
such as The Tale of Genji,
considered to be the world's first novel.Kamakura Period
The Kamakura Period established
a dual system of government, where
the emperor ruled in Kyoto while the
Shogun ruled from Kamakura. This
military led government (known as
the bafuku) was the first of its kind in
Japan, with the Shogun holding the
actual power.Ashikaga/Muromachi Period
During this period, Japan experienced
a surge in the arts influenced by Zen
Buddhism, including art forms like
tea ceremony, noh theater and garden
design. Other influential architectural
projects such as the Golden and Silver
pavillions were also created.The Warring States Period (戦国時代)
During this Period, Portuguese traders
introduced firearms, significantly altering
warfare through the development of new
tactics and the necessity for better armour.Tokugawa Period
During this period, the shogunate enforced
a system called 参勤交代, which required
regional lords to leave their families as
hostages in Edo, keeping the daimyo loyal
and the power centralised.Meiji Restoration
This period of time led to the abolishment
of the samurai class in favour of a more
modern, conscripted army (despite the samurai
being the instigators of the restoration). This was
done in order to prevent Japan from being
colonised by Western powers.
