The feudal system in Japan, known as the shogunate system, began to take shape in the late 12th century, particularly after the Genpei War (1180-1185) which culminated in the establishment of the Kamakura shogunate in 1192. This marked the transition from imperial rule to military governance, where powerful samurai clans held significant authority. The feudal structure evolved over the centuries, remaining influential until the Meiji Restoration in 1868.

One key difference between feudal Europe and feudal Japan lies in their social hierarchies and roles within the class structure. In Europe, the feudal system was characterized by a rigid class structure with kings, nobles, knights, and peasants, while in Japan, the system was more focused on the samurai warrior class, who held significant power and loyalty to their daimyo (feudal lords). Additionally, the cultural and religious influences, such as the prominence of Christianity in Europe versus Shinto and Buddhism in Japan, shaped their respective societies and governance.
