Tokugawa Ieyasu (with an I, not an L) was the first Shogun of the Tokugawa Shogunate which ruled Japan from 1603 until 1868. The Tokugawa clan took control after a long period of civil war known as the Sengoku Jidai, the "warring states period".Shogun basically means "commander in chief". The Shogun was the overall commander of the Japanese military from the end of the 1100s until 1868. Although the Tenno (emperor) was technically the ruler of Japan, the Shoguns were the real rulers during this time.

Tokugawa Ieyasu was a daimyō, which refers to a powerful feudal lord in Japan during the Edo period. He was originally a samurai but rose to prominence as a daimyō, ultimately unifying Japan and becoming the first shōgun of the Tokugawa shogunate in 1603. His leadership marked the beginning of a long period of peace and stability in Japan, known as the Edo period.
My opinion is that tokugawa shogunate was a positive force in JapanFor more than 100 years before the Tokugawa Shogunate took power in Japan in 1603, the country wallowed in lawlessness and chaos during the Sengoku or "Warring States" period (1467-1573).Beginning in 1568, however, Japan's "Three Reunifiers" - Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and Tokugawa Ieyasu - worked to bring the warring daimyo back under central control.In 1603, Tokugawa Ieyasu completed this task and established the Tokugawa Shogunate, which would rule in the emperor's name until 1868.

The Samurai were the warrior class of Japan during the Tokugawa Shogunate.
During the Sengoku period, roughly 1467-1600 AD, powerful samurai leaders (daimyo) seized control of old feudal estates. The period ended with unification of Japan under the powerful Shogun, Tokugawa Ieyasu.
