Outline of Final Research Achievements

In the dominant territory of the Sengoku Daimyo and its surrounding areas, not only the Sengoku Ryoshu with their own "vassals" and "territories" but also the self-sustaining castle owner who has been given significant discretion from Daimyo creates territorial domination . Therefore, the Sengoku period is not a consistent process in which these are resolved towards early modern period, and the formation of such dominance is considered to be a character of the Sengoku period. The order that was mobilized during the Sengoku period is reconstructed as "territory", etc., but its existence will be diversified by the political and military situation.
