The shogun was the main "advisor" of the emperor. In truth the shogun had all of the control, as the emperor was just a figurehead. The daimyo were provincial rulers who had control over small amounts of territory and at different times had largely independent power.
The emperor was the main face of Japan however held no power, the Shogun help ultimately the most power in feudal japan. The Daimyo's were the lord's 260 strong. They controlled a territory of land. The Samurai were the strongest warriors, they were the highest military rank that could be achieved. Think of it, for example like Canada. The emperor is the queen of england, the shogun is the prime minister and the Daimyo's are the premiers, or in us shogun is president and daimyo's is the governer of state.
Daimyo was also known as 'lord' of the land. Samurai was the rank in military, who also could served daimyo.
They were the most powerful feudal lords in Feudal Japan right after the Shogun.
Yes, The Daimyo would order a Samurai to be an allegiance to himself and make the Warrior protect the lives and property of the Daimyo and in return, he would give him land.
No Samurai were paid by the Daimyo to fight for the Daimyo's territory.
Samurai is a status in Japan. Daimyo is an occupation. A daimyo is someone of samurai status who owned an estate.
The Japanese feudal system put peasants at the bottom, the daimyos or merchant middle class in the middle, and the warrior shoguns at the top.
The clan leaders (daimyos) were the highest class other than the Imperial family.
The daimyos don't exist in modern times, but they were around in feudal Japan. The daimyos were their word for "lords" or "nobles". Basically to say, daimyos today really don't have much power and therefore aren't important. (though they were in feudal times...)
The shogun had the overall most power. However, the Daimyo's (Lord's) who were 260 strong were just below him. After that the samurai's came in. Think of it as the Shogun is the president, and the Daimyo's are the governors of the states.

With kindness and respect. But the people would still be odered to do things.
Only Samurai and Daimyos had the right to tax. This gave the military elite more power in government.
Nobody. If they have more power, then they cannot have less. And if they have less, they cannot have more. So nobody can have more AND less.
They 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.
