An Era of Conflict: The Unification of Japan

Description:

The unification of Japan sought to end centuries of conflict and chaos that defined the region for years. This period in Japanese history is known as the Sengoku period, a time of constant usurpation, and when nobody could become a ruler. This committee will take place midway through the Sengoku period after 1560, shortly after Oda Nobunaga secured the Owari province and established himself as one of the prominent Daimyō of the age. However, much like the other Daimyō, his ambitions do not stop at controlling just a portion of Japan. Delegates will navigate through the harsh political landscape of feudal Japan, utilizing their given powers and resources to decide the fate of Japan and end the centuries-long bloodshed.
