Nagasaki is a city and the capital of Nagasaki Prefecture on the Japanese island of Kyushu. During the reign of Emperor Meiji, the city was one of the only few ports on the island where European ships could dock for trade after Japan had secluded itself for over two centuries.
History[edit | edit source]
In 1549, Nagasaki served as the entry point into Japan for the Jesuit delegation led by the Templar Francis Xavier. The excommunicated Spanish Assassin Alvaro Catarribera was also part of the delegation, which he had infiltrated after learning about the Templars' plans to use the Jesuit mission as a guise to spread their influence to Japan.[1]
In 1562, Catarribera arrived back in the city and sought out any Templar in the vicinity. He later tracked down a Templar and fatally wounded him. However, in his last words, the Templar taunted Catarribera about how the Order have already expanded their influence across the land and that his efforts were futile before dying.[2]
By 1570, Portuguese ships arrived at the port of Nagasaki, following the port cities of Hirado and Yokose-ura in the years prior.[3]
On 9 June 1580,[4] Ōmura Sumitada, one of the first daimyō who converted to Christianity by Jesuit priest Gaspar Vilela, gifted the port city to the Jesuits and allowed them to tear down Buddhist temples, further creating more division between the Japanese and the Christians.[5]
In 1867, two British sailors were murdered in the city, resulting in increased diplomatic tensions between the United Kingdom and the Tokugawa shogunate. This incident came to be known as the Icarus affair and was one of the factors leading into the civil war fought between Mutsuhito's loyalists and the shogunate.[6]
On 9 August 1945, at 11:30 am, the United States dropped the atomic bomb "Fat Man" near the center of Nagasaki. causing approximately 70,000 deaths from the detonation alone.[7][8]
