{{Era|Individuals}}{{WP-REAL|Emperor Kanmu}}
'''Yamabe''' (山部; 735 – 806), also known as '''Emperor Kanmu''' (桓武天皇), was the 50th emperor of [[Japan]], reigning from 781 until his death.<ref>{{WP|Emperor Kanmu}}</ref> Kanmu is regarded as a foundational figure in Japanese history, being the only emperor that wielded a lot of power, unencumbered by regents or [[shōgun]]s.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 7: Kyoto: Japan's Imperial City</ref>
During his reign, Kanmu moved the capital city of Japan from [[Nara]], home to many scandals to do with the [[Buddhism|Buddhist]] clergy, to the new {{Wiki|Nagaoka-kyō}}. However, due to an uprising and following religious issues, another relocation needed to be undertaken. Kanmu then set out on a trip with his geomancers to find the perfect place for a new capital, eventually settling in what would become [[Kyoto]]. In 794, Kanmu, along with his court and army arrived by palanquin at the {{Wiki|Kyoto Imperial Palace|Imperial Palace}},<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07"/> which would remain as the home to the Emperors of Japan until [[Mutsuhito|Emperor Meiji]] moved to [[Tokyo]] in 1869.<ref>{{WP|Kyoto Imperial Palace}}</ref>

'''Toyotomi Hideyori''' (1593 – 1615) was the son and designated successor of [[samurai]] [[Toyotomi Hideyoshi]].
In 1598, Hideyori's father dies and a {{Wiki|Council of Five Elders|council of elders}} was formed to reign in Hideyori's place, since he was much too young to rule at five years old.

This conflict between Hideyori and Tokugawa would culminate in the [[Siege of Osaka]] in 1614, when the forces allied with Tokugawa gathered around {{Wiki|Osaka Castle}} to attempt to force Hideyori and his allies to give up. The siege ended with the castle being set on fire and Hideyori and his {{Wiki|Yodo-dono|mother}} dying huddled together.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 02">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 2: The Unification of Japan</ref>

[[Shimabara Rebellion]]
{{Era|Timeline}}{{WP-REAL}}
The '''Shimabara Rebellion''' was a peasant and [[samurai]] uprising in the {{Wiki|Shimabara Domain}} of [[Kyushu]], [[Japan]], during the early [[Tokugawa shogunate]], lasting from 17 December 1637 to 15 April 1638.<ref name="Wiki">{{WP|Shimabara Rebellion}}</ref>
A group of local samurai and peasants rebelled against the shogunate due to their discontent over the {{Wiki|Matsukura Katsuie|daimyō}}'s policies that led to overtaxation and famine. The alliance took over the abandoned {{Wiki|Hara Castle}}<ref name="Wiki"/> and held off attempts by Tokugawa forces to pacify them for months, defeating many ninja and spies, before reinforcements finally managed to stave off the rebellion.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 02">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 2: The Unification of Japan</ref>
The shogunate later publicized the uprising as a result of foreign interference, with the whole affair being orchestrated by foreign Christian powers who supported the peasants. The government shuttered international trade, maintaining relations with only a few countries, such as [[China]] and [[Korea]], at specific ports. The only [[Europe]]an power with which trade was maintained was the [[Netherlands|Dutch Empire]], which continued at the artificial island of {{Wiki|Dejima}}, off the coast of [[Nagasaki]].<ref name="Echoes Shadows 02"/>
