Ingame Description
The Tokugawa Shogunate is a very isolated nation that does not often involve with foreign affairs. Recently, due to widespread isolationist ideals, it became very strong and populated due to less chance to get a disease from the outside or go to war with another nation. Japan had no real military and heavily relied on Samurais to protect the civilians, not to mention they had extremely outdated weapons compared to Western Powers. They did have a little supply of guns from foreign trading though. Will you make Japan a very militarized power in Asia or will you embrace isolationism?

Backstory
The Tokugawa Shogunate (1603-1868) was the last Shogunate of Japan. The Tokugawa Shogunate would go on to rule Japan for the next 250 years and become an isolationist state. The Sakoku Edicts in the early days of the Tokugawa Shogunate would limit trade to only the Dutch, Chinese and Koreans. Technology from the Europeans would enter via the Dutch in Nagasaki. The Shimabara Rebellion in 1637 would cause a change in Japan as the Tokugawa Regime would execute and expell all Christian Converts and European Traders (apart from the Dutch) from Japan proper to prevent another Christian Rebellion. Japan would experience rapid urbanization and economic growth during the Tokugawa Shogunate era due to the long-lasting peace. Japan would also become a well-educated country during this era with its literacy rate being on-par with Western Nations but its army would be less so. In 1853, Japan would experience radical change once again with the arrival of Commodore Matthew Perry's expedition to Japan would open up the country to Western Influences and end the Sakoku isolationist polcy. The start of unequal treaties by western countries imposed on Tokugawa Japan would eventually lead to the Boshin war in Japan that would restore imperial rule ending the Tokugawa Shogunate in 1868.
