Ashikaga Shogunate
In 1450, Jūzō Ayase, folk story teller, tells a story about two walking down a forest. Later in 1451 Jūzō Ayase writes out another story about the two Satoris; the two Satoris go to adopt the and all later move underground to their own temple. 1452 Jūzō Ayase writes yet another story, this time the two female Satoris with their pet Kasha run into a that tried to scare them but failed. 1453 Jūzō Ayase continues the story with two female Satoris along with their pet Kasha befriend the Kasa-obake that tried to scare them and they go along their journey. 1454 Jūzō Ayase finishes the story: the two female Satoris with their pet Kasha go back to the underground temple and their friend Kasa-obake visits them there. In 1455, Jūzō Ayase wrote a new story, this time about a young warrior on his quest to defeat some, specifically. In 1456 Jūzō Ayase continued the story: the young warrior goes to defeat some Tengu, and one of them proves to be a challenge; in 1457 story continued: the young warrior continues defeating some Tengu, and eventually runs into a along the way; in 1458: young warrior talked to the Miko and both begun to fighting more Tengu; then story finally concluded in 1459; young warrior and the Miko manage to fight off more Tengu and saved their lands. In 1460 Jūzō Ayase has his new story begin with the young warrior and the Miko soon see the Oni invading their lands and begin to fight them off; in 1461 it continued; both young warrior and Miko continue fighting the Oni and soon the two female Satoris with their pet Kasha appear and help out; in 1462 it continued; the young warrior and the Miko with help from the two female Satoris and their pet Kasha manage to fight off the Oni invasion faster and save their lands again; in 1463 it ended with the young warrior and the Miko thanks the two female Satoris and their pet Kasha and they (two female Satoris and pet Kasha) return home. In 1465 Jūzō Ayase decided to write one last story: the Miko goes sailing and an appears, and she begins to fight it; in 1466 - Akkorokamui proves to be a major challenge, though soon the young warrior, and the two female Satoris with their pet Kasha arrive to help the Miko against the Akkorokamui. ; in 1467 - the young warrior, Miko, the two female Satoris with their pet Kasha continue fighting against the Akkorokamui, and wins and saves the seas; afterwards the young warrior and Miko continue going sailing and two female Satoris with pet Kasha travel home again. In 1476 Jūzō Ayase died, though his written stories are kept safe by his daughter, Eiko Ayase. In 1486, Eiko Ayase decides to turn all of Jūzō Ayase's short stories into one book.

Also in 1452, 函館市 was established as a new city on 北海道 (Hokkaidō). In 1456 Shogun Ashikaga Yoshimasa also sent a little bit of trained samurai and some supplies to help the Ryūkyū King reclaim his kingdom. In 1465, Manchuria offered support in the war against Ainu, in which Ashikaga Yoshimasa had accepted. In 1478, Shogun Ashikaga Fumikazu made 北海道 (Hokkaidō) an official Province/Prefecture and set 函館市 (Hakodate) as the capital of the new Province/Prefecture. In 1479 北海道 (Hokkaidō) became completely conquered. In 1485 Japan obtains designs from Venice, and the Shogun thanks them and had gifted them too.

In 1486 the Satomi Clan begun to construct 高知城 (Kōchi Castle) around 高知 (Kōchi) area. In 1488 a new branch of Shintoism was establish, called Mikoism, and this new branch of Shintoism can converts people, similar to Buddhism.

In 1494 Japan reached the Asian Mainland (around OTL Kamchatka) and then begun expanding upwards, while naming both the Peninsula and Prefecture, Reiuzi (霊烏路).

In 1517, the Ashikaga Shogunate declared war against the Pirate-held 琉球國 (Ryūkyū Kingdom). The war ended in 1522 with Japanese victory and soon 沖縄國 (Okinawa Kingdom) was created as a vassal out of a bit of land gained from the 琉球國 (Ryūkyū Kingdom).

Satomi Shogunate
In 1938, a film is made by Hazuki Kikuchi, featuring characters Koishi Komeiji and Satori Komeiji for the first time.

Current Situation in Japan
Basically a section of a comic detailing what's happening in Japan now. Updated whenever something significant happens in Japan. It is all dramatisations so...




 * First Panel:
 * Satori and Koishi are representing Japan (hence why they look at Ainu lands). Meanwhile, Japanese Pirates in Ryūkyū (represented by Kogasa Tatara) continue fighting Japanese shipping (Seiga Kaku represents that).


 * Second Panel:
 * Koishi goes travelling up the Chishima Islands. Satori has stopwatch seeing how long it takes to get Hokkaidō. Japanese pirates continue to be problems.


 * Third Panel:
 * Koishi has little luck travelling up the Chishima Islands, due to Ainu. Satori has another cup of tea and continues eyeing Hokkaidō and sees the Ainu as a challenging. Japanese pirates continues to be problems as usual, and the fights will take many more years before the pirates be defeated.


 * Fourth Panel
 * Koishi continues her trip up the Chishima Island 'staircase' fighting more Ainu each floor (or land in this case). Satori stares at Hokkaidō still, as she expects the defeat of the Ainu sometime soon. Japanese pirate fighting continues, though Seiga used her danmaku to knock off Kogasa's sword, though Kogasa still has a few more swords. Mononobe no Futo (see where the musical note is located, next to it) uses her wind fan to stir up some far future trouble (Hint: Sengoku Era, ~1520s), and whistles while doing it. Unfortunately, no one notices her...for now.


 * Fifth Panel
 * Koishi continues up the Chishima islands, along with her sister Satori, who is so happy now that Hokkaidō is absorbed into Japan and Ainu is still being fought against (no surprise). In central Japan Mononobe no Futo and Fujiwara no Mokou and both begin to continue to destabilise Japan, which goes un-noticed, and they begin to leave Japan (both be back when Sengoku Era begins). Kogasa gets a new sword and strikes back against Seiga (who is also trying out a pair of glasses, temporary).


 * Sixth Panel:
 * Koishi obtains designs and stuff of European inventions (represented by holding a book) from Minamitsu Murasa (representing Venice). Satori is a bit annoyed that other nations (China and Korea) have it too and is worried, because she wants Japan to have peace with its neighbours. Kogasa is annoyed as Japanese Pirates will have slight disadvantage, and Seiga pokes fun at her.


 * Seventh Panel:
 * Koishi is very happy and joyful now that Chishima Islands are conquered, and begin to go up into Kamchatka and wears a purple trench-coat because it's getting cold. Kogasa dodges more bullets but doesn't give up the fight yet, and Seiga continues to taunt her; Japanese Pirates continue fighting. Satori is just having her cup of tea to relax, but she is worried about some things (she reads minds remember?). Oh, don't mind Utsuho (she's in Kamchatka), she's just worried about other things (maintaining Volcanoes).


 * Eight Panel:
 * Koishi meets Utsuho in Kamchatka areas after finding her via expansion into the area. Kogasa continues to dodge the bullets; though Seiga keeps taunting her and this time Hong Meiling (representing China) joins the fight, as the battle against the Japanese Pirates continue as usual. Satori is chilling now and she sits on a chair, drinking tea. Meanwhile at the colony of Kasodani, Nue (she represents said colony) is chilling as well and enjoying the new area.


 * Ninth Panel:
 * Koishi and Utsuho feel a strange presence bound to happen soon in Japan. Meanwhile Satori and Seiga have fought against Kogasa and also created the Okinawa Kingdom (represented by Nazrin), and also the fighting against the Japanese Pirates are continuing. Nue is still chilling at the colony, not much change.
