	Valignano visited the various Christian establishments in Japan and reorganized their mission, which he divided into three districts: Shimo, Bungo, and Miyako, the capital, where he went in 1581. He was received by Nobunaga in Azuchi. Valignano left Japan the following year for Europe with four young Japanese "ambassadors," sons of Christian ~~daimyo~~ where they would go to Rome to be received by the pope. Valignano accompanied them to Goa, where he stayed for 4 years as Provincial of the Indies. He returned to Japan in 1588 with the young Japanese delegates and the title of special envoy of the Viceroy of the Indies. However, while travelling from Macau he learned about the persecution affecting Christians, especially the expulsion order for missionaries promulgated by Toyotomi Hideyoshi. Nevertheless, in 1591 Valignano embarked for the archipelago and was received by Hideyoshi at the Jurakudai palace in Kyoto. He returned to Macau and then came back to Japan from 1598 to 1603 for a third stay. He returned again to Macau, where he died in 1606.
