It was the influence of confucianism from China ~1200 that created the 4 casts: Royalty, Samurai warrior, Peasant, 'The rest', mostly merchants and day labourers. Japan's feudal era was characterized by the emergence of a ruling class of warriors, the samurai. In 1185, following the defeat of the rival Taira clan, Minamoto no Yoritomo was appointed Shogun and established a base of power in Kamakura. After Yoritomo's death, the Hōjō clan came to rule as regents for the shoguns. Zen Buddhism was introduced from China in the Kamakura period (1185-1333) and became popular among the samurai class.
