1560 – 1615
A country broken into two hundred warring domains was welded into one state by three men in succession, each finishing what the last began by force. Oda Nobunaga broke the old order with massed gunfire at Nagashino; Toyotomi Hideyoshi completed the conquest and overreached into Korea; Tokugawa Ieyasu outlasted them both at Sekigahara and buried the last of Hideyoshi's line at Osaka. The revolution ended by devouring its own children, and the shogunate it produced ruled Japan for two hundred and fifty years.
