Best Answer

Daimyo and Shogun are two different things.... Daimyo is a powerful military lord in fudal Japan and shohun is a military ruler ruler of feudal japan but they are very similar its just that Daimyo weekend the shogun for a while and had power

The Daimyo were the provincial rulers of feudal japan, similar to European Lords. They came in many different ranks and served under the shogun. They paid samurai underlings with rice or land, to fight for them (master-less samurai were looked down upon, and called 'ronin'.) They were themselves samurai the same way, barons, dukes, and other lords were knights, and Daimyos were supposed to follow the code of Bushido.

Their duty was to govern an area, provide justice, and serve the Shogun

The shogun was the Absolutist Military dictator of japan, operating hiding behind the figurehead "emperor".

Who did samurai's serve?

Answer 1: SAmurais served their Shogun. A shogun was the military leader and as the years went on shogans became more incharge then the emperors. Answer 2: Samurai didn't serve the shogun, they served the daimyo, the Japanese lords. Then the daimyo would give the shogun loyalty and the service of some of the daimyo's samurai, in return for land which they gave some to the samurai. The shogun has (for example) 3 lots of land - A, B, C. Two lots of samurai -A,B - serve the daimyo. The shogun gives land lot B and C to the daimyo in return for samurai lot B. The daimyo gives land lot C to the samurai in return for their service. So even though samurai lot B 'serves' the shogun, they actually do that only because they serve the daimyo.
