No, a shogun and a shogunate are not the same. A shogun is a military leader or general in Japan, historically the de facto ruler of the country, while a shogunate refers to the government or administration led by a shogun. The shogunate represents the institutional framework that governs Japan under a shogun's authority, such as the Kamakura or Tokugawa shogunate.
The Tokugawa shogunate controlled the daimyo through a system known as "sankin-kōtai," which required them to spend alternating years in the capital, Edo, and their own domains. This practice ensured that the daimyo were physically separated from their lands and resources, limiting their power and ability to raise armies. Additionally, the shogunate implemented strict regulations on the daimyo's military capabilities and finances, effectively centralizing authority and maintaining a balance of power that favored the shogunate. Through these measures, the Tokugawa shogunate established a stable but rigid hierarchy that kept the daimyo in check.
The shogunate capital of Japan was Edo, which is now known as Tokyo. Edo was the seat of power for the shoguns during the Tokugawa shogunate, which ruled Japan from 1603 to 1868.
