A lot of samurai originated from many counties in Japan, I believe their were just about 7 counties. Samurai are japanese warriors, basically, they fought for daimyo the head, leader, or ruler of a clan. A daimyo would eventually come to the rank of shogun.... The difference between daimyo and shogun, is that daimyo are rulers of clan, while shogun are basically the head samurai of japan.
Samurai were from Japan, and the samurai sword is from Japan.

They both used the feudal system. The feudal system is a kind of culture in which the knights (in Japan, Samurai) owned most of the land and were responsible to the King (in Japan, Emperor), and basically ruled over the peasants.
