the kamakura shogunate and a massive typhoon
Yes, the Gempei War was a conflict that took place in Japan from 1180 to 1185, primarily between the Taira and Minamoto clans. It was a pivotal civil war that ultimately led to the establishment of the Kamakura shogunate and marked the beginning of the feudal era in Japan. The war is significant in Japanese history and literature, but it did not involve China.
Minamoto no Yoritomo rose to power in the late 12th century, following his victory in the Genpei War (1180-1185) against the Taira clan. In 1185, he established the Kamakura shogunate, the first shogunate in Japan, effectively becoming the first shōgun in 1192. His rise marked the beginning of a new era in Japanese history, characterized by military rule and the dominance of the samurai class.
At the end of the Gempei War in 1185, the shogunate system in Japan underwent a significant transformation with the establishment of the Kamakura shogunate under Minamoto no Yoritomo. This marked the transition from imperial rule to military governance, as Yoritomo became the first shogun, consolidating power in the hands of the samurai class. The imperial court's authority diminished, and the shogunate implemented a feudal system that prioritized loyalty and military service, fundamentally altering Japan's political landscape. This shift laid the groundwork for centuries of samurai-led governance in Japan.
I think it means that it's okay to be a boy when there's peace or in the time of peace but you have to be a man in the time of war!

Peace
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.
War
When there is war, there is fighting. People are at odds with each other over one thing or another. When there is not war, there is peace. The word used for when there is no war is peace.
In war time most or all of the country's resources are pumped towards the war effort. People are rationed and the country is in total war. In peace time this is not so.
