You know, that in nihon (=Japan) the society is very kindful. They have in society some kind of highest bid in being respectful with each other.
Shogun was the highest level in military, from the caste of the samurai. He had a lot of influence, not only during wars in japan. Also he was the most important man in the old History of Japan - more important than the Japanese imperator!
The board game "Shogun" was deviced in 1976 by Teruo Matsumoto. It's basis is the military and also the respectful handling with each other.
It needs time and a strategical logic to win this game and also a kind of fairness. The Japanese say, it's a way to find out, how the opponent feels. It's some kind of looking inside another persons behavior.
So it becames very important in Japan.
It's often played in every class of the society: During the 80th the game was often played in the higher society. But today it's more a game for gamblers.
(sorry for my bad English, I'm German ^^'') But I hope, I could help you.
