The Tokugawa Shogunate gave the Japanese peace, but at the price of a heavy handed control. They instituted a Sword Hunt, that only gave the Samurai the ability to have weapons. They also imposed a very exacting four tier class structure that enforced rules on even the most minute detail.

Then around 1600, the various kingdoms and fiefdoms of Samurai Japan were first unified under Tokugawa after the Battle of Sekigahara.

The period emphasized the aesthetics of everyday life and the "floating world," reflecting the pleasures of urban culture. Additionally, the isolationist policies of the shogunate allowed for the development of a unique Japanese identity, fostering traditional arts, crafts, and the tea ceremony.
