Introduction

The war started on the morning of the year 1600.  This battle lasted only a day .  Two ally forces loyal to Hideyoshi Toyotomi join each other and challenge Tokugawa Ieyasu.  During this battle, both sides lost many soldiers and some allies turn to enemies.  This battle change the century and allow for Tokugawa Ieyasu to pave the way to a new era.  The new era allow for a system which categorizes people depending on their social class and many more.  The Edo era brought with it many forms of entertainment.  During Tokugawa Ieyasu's rule, Japan modernize, but close all it's doors to any foreigners, allowing only the the Dutch to enter.
On this day, we did not know if we were going to return home or not, but following lord Tokugawa into battle we held onto our hopes.
